What's their definition of "fast"?
I guess their definition is "not slow".
And what do they mean by "two speed pump"?
Two pump handles on one bottle jack. As I said in an earlier post, you
can get some cross country ski training with it.
FYI...here's the manual...http://www.harborfreight.com/manuals...9999/39981.PDF

Two pump handles on one bottle jack
I guess that could mean "two speed" if one arm moved faster than the
other.
If I were marketing this device I'd have used "variable speed pump"
since the user can determine how fast he moves the handles.
"Variable speed" sounds even more impressive than "two speed." g
"Double speed" would be even better. Having only one pump handle on a
bottle jack requires that you pull the handle to pump the fluid into the
jack, then you have to push the handle back to start the next pump
action. With 2 handles, while you are resetting one handle, the other
handle is being pulled to pump the fluid. Alternating pumping and
resetting with each handle, therefore doubling the pump action. I guess
that would be faster.
Think of a cross country skier with only one ski pole, and then a CC
skier with two ski poles. Which one would go faster?
