It is my understanding that many compressors have more than one air filter.

A question I have is would it be benificial to mount two dry pack filters on a Hill pump? Also, what would be possible consequences from doing such?

I don't have a Hill's pump, but a FX, what i do is I turn on my dehumidifier in a small room and start pumping indoors...

I have a Gehmann pump along with a Steyr LP5 that I bought in 2002 and I just pump it up and bleed the cylinder like it recommends and don't have any filter. I have never had any problem with the gun or pump and haven't even changed any 0 rings.
