JD air compressors

Does anyone know anything about the old pto driven air compressors that JD made? How much pressure can they achieve and how many cfs?
Thanks

You might get a response by posting at www.agriculture.com in one of the talk sections.

Sorry to take so long, but I was in the middle of a response to you when my provider shut down to change their equipment - but back up now.

I have a PTO pump (not what I would call an air compressor, but that may just be because it doesn't have a tank). It works very well for pumping up tires in the field. It is a single piston with a crank and connecting rod, slips onto the PTO shaft and pumps away. Don't know the cfs (?) or the pressure, but guess it would depend on the condition of the rings on the piston.

Is this what you have? Mine isn't close or I would take a digital pic and post it.

sounds like what I've seen but I have had no idea if it would be worth having. I'm not counting on being so far from the place that I'd need to get one though. Thanks for the info.
