Is it adapted to run w/ the cylinder? If so it wil be a great setup. I have a friend who has set up 3 of them. I ran sec thousand 45 ser. What a work saver!! Forget the cylcic rate but a real production setup.wc's.

Good luck w/ it!!

would someone explain to me how a air cylinder is used with a lub and sizer?,  thanks

In short, the air cylinder replaces the lube reservoir pressure spring and screw.  With the air cylinder, you don't have to turn the screw to maintain pressure on the lube.  Constant pressure is maintained by the air cylinder (which has a pressure regulator).   You need an supply of pressurized air, either a compressor, or charged air cylinder.

I don't have one yet, but I have heard many say that it's a worthwhile add on for a Star Lubesizer.
