Hi,
This may be an obvious question but my knowledge of the subject is scarce.
Was looking up vacuum pumps and the double piston style attached came up quite a lot.
It is sometimes sold as a vacuum pump/compressor and I noticed that it looks exactly like what is on top of my compressor. Is it the same thing? Can I use the inlet as a vacuum?
edit: I took the inlet filter off and put some sandpaper over the hole and it does make a vacuum but I’m nervous it may ultimately mess up the valves?
