You will want to set your compressor pressure as to the condition of your plumbing and fixtures. I have all new PEX pipe, brass valves, and steel-braided supply lines. Most owners will want to use lower pressure than 125 PSI.
I don't think anyone answered the question of whether I could run one of those pancake compressors from the outlets of the trailer itself (run an extension cord from inside). Would that work?
Using a filter between compressor and plumbing is also a good idea, especially if using an oil-bath compressor.
All of this winterization talk reminds me that it's also time to drain the spray tank and pull my battery from the lawn tractor. I have pretty much the same Shurflo pump on the tractor as what most folks have in the RV,the exception is that my spray pump has an internal bypass at a set PSI.
