Well, long story short, I bought a brand new Fini compressor and found out it was assembled by half brain monkeys.
The compressor arrived from dealer and I was super excited about the new toy.
Because of the location in the shop I decided to use the rear airtank port for the high pressure output, port which was plugged from factory.
No problem, took a spanner and tried to undo the plug. It was stuck. Figured they used the liquid sealant, so I heated it with the blowtorch. Again, no deal.
So... decided to stick to my motto: if it’s stuck force it, if it breaks it needed replacement anyhow
Therefore I took out the welder and welded the spanner to the plug. Not the best weld since I did not want to put a lot of heat into the airtank and damage the nice paintjob.
The weld held but the spanner broke next the weld Perhaps the spanner was heat treated, don’t know.
Buy I was becoming super frustrated, went to the hardware store and bought a crowbar. Welded it in the middle to the plug. Success, I managed to undo the plug
