Eclipse does not check if a field is being used before refactor it. After the refactoring there is a compilation error because the field cannot be found anymore.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create the classes:
public class A {
  protected int f;
}
public class B extends A {
  public long m(){
    return super.f;
  }
}

2. Apply the push down refactoring to A.f:
public class A {
}
public class B extends A {
  protected int f;
  public long m(){
    return super.f;
  }
}

3. The transformation leads to compilation error: f cannot be resolved or is not a field
