Does the compressor come on a pallet that it is bolted down on? If we buy the service kit does it extend the whole compressor warranty for 4 years or just the pump?

Answer
Yes, this compressor is shipped on a pallet.
DeWalt warrants the compressor for two years. Buying the maintenance kit with the compressor extends the pump's Factory Warranty from 2 years to 4 years
