Product Information
Full details
The Wolf Professional Super Cheyenne V-Twin Air Compressor is designed for demanding industrial environments, offering exceptional power and reliability for tasks like car body refinishing and engineering workshops. Its key benefit is the robust 3HP V-Twin motor delivering 14.6cfm and a 100-litre receiver, capable of up to 150psi. A key caveat is its significant weight, requiring two people for handling, and the strict recommendation against using extension cables.

FAQs
What is the primary use case for this compressor?
This compressor is designed for demanding professional and industrial applications, such as car body refinishing, maintenance departments, and engineering workshops, where high power and consistent air delivery are required.
Can I use an extension cord with this compressor?
No, it is strongly advised against using extension cables. They can lead to operational difficulties and potential damage to the motor due to insufficient power delivery.
How much air does this compressor deliver?
The Wolf Super Cheyenne V-Twin delivers 14.6 cubic feet per minute (cfm) of air displacement.
What is the maximum pressure this compressor can reach?
The compressor can operate up to a maximum pressure of 150 psi.
Does this compressor come with a regulator?
Yes, it is equipped with an air outlet pressure regulator to allow for precise control of the output pressure.
How do I connect my air tools?
The compressor features two 1/4 inch BSP Uni Hi Flow quick release connectors, allowing for easy and rapid attachment of standard air hoses and tools.
Is this compressor easy to move?
No, this is a very heavy unit. It requires two people for unloading and positioning due to its substantial weight.
Troubleshooting
Compressor fails to start
Ensure the unit is directly plugged into a wall socket without an extension cable. Verify the power source is adequate and correctly wired for the high start-up current requirement. Check the power switch and circuit breaker.
Low air pressure output
Check for leaks in hoses or connections. Ensure the air intake filter is clean. Verify the pressure regulator is set correctly and the receiver is adequately charged. Ensure the compressor motor is running at full speed.
Compressor stops prematurely
This could indicate an overheating issue. Ensure the air intake is unobstructed and the motor cooling vents are clear. Check for excessive duty cycle if operating continuously for very long periods.
Excessive vibration
Ensure the compressor is on a stable, level surface. Check that all mounting bolts are secure. Inspect the V-twin motor mounts for wear or damage.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Industrial-grade power for heavy-duty applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the compressor is placed on a stable, level surface. Due to its weight, plan the final location carefully.
- Connect the compressor to an appropriate, dedicated power source. Verify that the power supply can meet the high start-up power requirements.
- Crucially, do not use extension cables. Connect the power cord directly to the wall socket.
- Attach your air tools to the quick-release connectors. Adjust the outlet pressure regulator to the desired setting for your tool.
Compatibility:
- The compressor is compatible with standard 1/4 inch BSP air fittings.
- Suitable for use with high-demand pneumatic tools such as spray guns, grinders, sanders, and impact wrenches.
- Requires a robust electrical supply capable of handling high starting current.
Care:
- Regularly drain the air receiver to remove condensation and prevent rust.
- Keep the air intake filter clean to ensure optimal performance and motor longevity.
- Periodically check the oil level (if applicable to the specific internal design) and top up as needed.
- Wipe down the exterior with a clean, dry cloth to keep it free of dust and debris.
