piping in a air compressor

i have a kobalt 50 gallon air compressor that i use to run my air tools with and paint cars with as a hobby. my question is if you have a diagram showing the correct way to pipe in a air compressor using a shut off valve, air regulator and a air filter so i wont get water in my air lines. i have it piped in now but i am not sure i have it the correct way. could you please send me a diagram or tell me step by step the correct way to pipe in the air compressor. i am not using a air oiler. i oil my air tools such as rachets and air impact gun through the air nipple that the air hose hooks onto. i do have a air regulator hooked onto my paint guns so i can control the air pressure from the guns instead of running to the air compressor all the time adjusting the air pressure.
any help you can give me i would appreciate it.
thank you

Lanny, good to hear from you. Thanks for visiting and for writing in.

I'm pretty sure that if you start with this page, read it all, and then wander over to this page, pretty much all you've asked for will be found.

Cheers,

Bill
