T O L E R A N C E S A N D W A R N I N G S Allegro ambient air pumps are precision pumps that have only .0015-.003 clearance between the top of the rotor and cylinder bore, and .003 or less clearance between end of the rotor and the end plate. Any thrust on the shaft such as mishandling or dropping the pump on its end will tend to close these clearances, causing the rotor to jam. Foreign particles, excessive dirt or dust build up may cause sluggish performance and eventual “jamming” of
