[Crw-talk] For sale: Gast vacuum pump

[Ken Grunke]

Seems I have a hot item here. Thanks for all the replies.
To answer the questions posed to me so far: The pump runs good, it is 
rather loud but is typical of these kind of vacuum pumps. It is an 
industrial service continuous duty vacuum pump which will pull a high 
vacuum as long as the system is tight and leak-free.   It needs a 220 
hookup, I don't see any way to convert to 110. Cosmetically not that 
great, but runs great. I would give it a proper lubrication for the next 
10 years--I am not sure of the correct oil, but my guess would be 
straight 30 wt non-detergent oil. Someone with more experience with this 
pump may have better info.
I took a better pic of the label with the vital statistics, you will see 
it at the bottom of the series of pics I posted here:

I will hold the pump for the first firm $65 offer who promises by phone 
to pick it up within 12 hours, and follows through. No committal 
necessary, if you see it and change your mind, no problem, then the next 
offer gets the chance.

thanks,
