Default Numatx set up

Just received my numatx squeezer. At first glance, it looks like the air supply hose from the compressor to the footpedal will be constricted. I?m trying to avoid modifying the foot pedal housing. Hopefully, there?s a solution that avoids alteration. Any ideas are appreciated.

What are you worried about as far as restriction? No issue with mine. Here's my setup:

Mine is similar - junk that piece of yellow plastic, we aren't in kindergarten

Set mine up as per the arrangement that Vince had on his stand.

Thanks to you both....I like the setup and the way it mounts on the mounts on the board too.

One last question, do you usually set approximately 75 psi regulator pressure?

On mine:
3/32 is 46psi
1/8 is 86psi

Gauges can vary a decent amount but as long as you can set yours to the same value each time then the actual number shouldn't matter.

Jared.

Default Mine

On mine:

3/32: 44 psi
1/8: 78 psi

I love this tool! Just be careful not to accidentally step on the switch

Interesting - manual says ? NEVER operate the system below 60-pisg or above 90-psig air pressure.?. Ok, I understand the max air pressure limitation, but why the 60 psi warning? Sounds as though 30 to 45 is what?s needed to operate.
