PTO PUMP

Post by supermajor61 »

I've just bought a PTO air pump for the Fordson. It was a moment of madness, i was at the Great Dorset Steam Fair, wandering around the autojumble, and it called out to me.

Took it home and coupled up the outlet pipes, and surprisingly it works well.Just have to make up a top bracket.

It's a Goldstar 800, manufactured by Lawrence Edwards. Can't find a website for them.

My question is about lubrication. There are a couple of grease nipples, one each side of the label. Do these lubricate just the pistons and cylinders. How are the main, big end and small end bearings lubricated ? There is no way to open it up to lubricate.

Saw a single cylinder one, but that had a cover that could be removed.

Anybody have access to an instruction manual for one of these pump ?
