Mounted the air filter, regulator and oil lubricator
After reading the instructions from the pneumatic drill, I learned that the air hose that feeds this setup needs to come up from the compressor and then down to the air filter, regulator and oil lubricator. This prevents oil from going back into the compressor. Also they recommend that the oil lubricator be mounted higher that the pneumatic tool in use. The oil lubricator has a clear "oil drip" located at the top of unit, so you can see how drips are going into the air hose to the pneumatic tool when in use. You can adjust the flow, but they don't tell how much is "too much". Notice I have a quick connects on each unit. When I get ready to spray paint, the oil lubricator will be removed and I will use a dedicated "clean" hose. UPDATE:The oil lubricator is not really needed. If you're like me, you want to lubricate your pneumatic tool yourself as you use it. On my next RV (arr-arr), I'm not going to put the in-line water drain in either. However multiple in-line air control gauges (regulators) are a must.
