Horse Rope pumps

The horse Rope pump combines the Rope pump with an angle transmission.* Pump capacity is 4 times higher than that of the hand pump model. Like all the other Rope pump models, the horse Rope pump has a simple design and can be produced locally. The maintenance consists of regularly cleaning the transmission and lubricating the bushings.
