Mi-T-M AM2-SH09-30ME 30-Gal Two-Stage Gasoline Compressor – Electric Start, 17.2 CFM
Mi-T-M AM2-SH09-30ME: 30-Gallon Two-Stage Gasoline Compressor with Electric Start
The Mi-T-M AM2-SH09-30ME adds electric start capability to the proven AM2 two-stage platform. Powered by a 270cc Honda GX270 OHV engine producing 17.2 CFM at 175 PSI, this 30-gallon ASME tank unit weighs 490 lbs net — heavier than the base -30M due to the electric start hardware already installed. Battery and cables are not included and must be ordered separately.
Electric Start and Two-Stage Pump Details on the AM2-SH09-30ME
- Electric start pre-installed — eliminates pull-cord effort for daily startup in shop or fleet environments
- Honda GX270 OHV engine — 270cc displacement with commercial-grade durability and parts availability
- 17.2 CFM @ 175 PSI — sustained two-stage output for spray guns, impact wrenches, and air-operated lifts
- Two-stage cast iron pump — inter-stage cooling reduces heat buildup during extended run cycles
- Stainless-steel braided discharge hose — rated for high-pressure output without abrasion wear
- Pneumatic idle control — auto-throttles at set pressure to reduce fuel use and engine hours
- 150-PSI maximum rated regulator — allows output pressure tuning for different tool requirements
Where Electric Start Matters: Fleet Shops and Daily-Use Stations
Electric start is most valued in fleet maintenance facilities, auto dealership service bays, and rental equipment yards where compressors start and stop multiple times per shift. Manufacturing floor stations benefit from push-button startup that doesn't require technician strength or proximity to the recoil. Mobile service units with generator integration can connect directly to the electric start circuit for remote activation.
Optional Upgrades and What Ships
The AM2-SH09-30ME ships with electric start wiring pre-installed but without a battery. The optional AX-0017 kit adds a sealed battery, tray, box, and cables for a complete installation. The AX-0077 Battery Box/Tray and AX-0105 Remote Start/Choke (7-ft sealed cable) are also available as factory-order options for remote key-switch control.
