YONG HENG-{4500 PSI}COMPRESSOR-1-YEAR LATER--REVIEW-(PLUS-OIL CHANGE) 

Nice 1 year follow up. I have two YH's myself and one is approaching the 3 year mark and still doing well. I think as long as the operator does his/part and keeps up on maintenance and lubrication changes, they will do what they need to do. Thank for sharing.

Simple solution to a simple set up, thanks for the information....

Thank you for making this video. I was about to remove the sight glass to change the oil but this video probably saved a very costly mistake. Some owners of this compressor say to change the oil when it appears cloudy,so that's what I'm going to do since I'd rather replace the oil than the compressor. Saw lots of videos on reviews,setup, oil type,filtration, but no one told me how to change the oil,not even the manual. Good job,thanks.

Hi Jeremiah. I also have the Yong Heng. I also use it everyday and have owned it for well over a year and it's amazing. I was ignorant and didn't know that the shipping oil cap was NOT to used, and you need to switch it to the breather cap that's included. I ran it for months like that LUCKILY with no problems. It could've burst from over pressure, but didn't. I change the oil very frequently because it's cheap and why not. I bought a gallon of AW-46 hydraulic oil at O-Reilly for about $15 and still have enough for two changes left. Great compressors !

Good information as always! ✨✨✨✨

Thanks for the info!

Awesome

Hey man, I just ordered one of these and have been watching videos on them. Thanks for making a couple about the compressor. Subbed

I have had mine for 3+ years and like you use Royal Purple Synthetic Compressor Oil. One little addition I added to it for 10$ on Amazon is a vibration activated time monitor. I have been changing the 6 ounces of oil or so every 10 hours of operating time. It is dark and no longer purple when I change it. Please keep in mind I’m not filling the Guns but 4 carbon fiber 65 Cubic ft tanks so it is running for a while each time I use it. You are 100% right sir…bang for the buck…this is the most affordable way to go if your into PCPs and on a budget my friend. If purchased through Walmart or Amazon a 4 year warranty can be purchased for under 50$ that is no questions and repaired or replaced for free. Amazon has free return shipping also. Hope this helps yourself and others. God bless and thanks for the video bud.

Thanks for sharing Jerimiah.

Excellent video. I agree with everything you said 100%.

Mine is actually a Yong Heng copy and I’ve had for about 3 years now. Top of tanks with it and have had few issues. I have upgraded the filter system and change oil regularly. I blow the occasional burst disk but it’s easy to change out and have found filling my tanks to 4500 psi over works the compressor. These compressors are rated to 30 mpa which is more like 4375 rather than 4500 psi. I have fewer issues since limiting my tank fills to ~4375 psi.

I've been on the fence about this compressor for a long time. I'm glad to see this update. Now I may have to grab one up. Thanks Bullfrog!

I've not changed mine in a year i use royal purple air compressor oil only i don't use any water separator either. probably time to change oil myself

Great info. what type water are you using ? I hear distilled, then I hear distilled is bad

I ha e the same one and the 4500psi one from bin tech

I go buy how transparent the oil is in the window. If it looks dirty I'll change it.

LOL, Royal Purple? That is You Tube oil! Ask the big guys what they use in commercial compressors..and why.

Where did you buy from?
