Default Not intended for continous operation

Hi Everyone

Can someone confirm my recollection that these transmission driven air pumps are not intended to operate full time? That the gearing is such that much above idle speed they are being badly overspeeded.

My memory is based on something in a manual, drivers handbook, or service bulletin which I can not lay my hands on at the moment.

Cheers Phil

Brought back one of these from the War and Peace Show years ago in my carry on luggage through Heathrow. Trouble going through security at that end and customs at this end. They do look strange on the luggage xray.
