Could I use this to fill up the 33 gallon tank from my old compressor without waiting forever or worse yet hurting this compressor?

Answer
You could use the JC10PLUS but do run the risk of overworking the compressor as it is only a 70% duty cycle. To fill the extra 33 gal tank could take up to 15 minutes of continuous running not to mention once you actually start using the air; the JC10PLUS will not be able to keep up and will more than likely overheat. If you want to use your 33 gal tank in line with a smaller unit, you are better off with a 2hp unit, something that will not only put out more air but able to handle filling the larger tank better.
