Questions

1–4 of 4 Questions  
Sort by:

  1. How many pumps to raise the barrel from the ground to fully raised? How long does that take? How many rotations of the crank to rotate the barrel 180 degrees? How long does that take?

    1 answer

    1. It would take 56 pumps to raise it from the ground to fully raised with no load. It would take a few more with a load. There is no time listed, it would just depend on how fast you pump it. It would take approximately 1 minute to turn it 180 degrees. There is no time given on how long it would take.
