RE-ASSESSING
THE PERFORMANCE OF THE BUCKET PUMP - A SIMPLE WATER By Dr. Costantino Faillace |
| Training in the Use of the Bucket Pump At the completion of the installation of the bucket pump it is essential to train villagers in the use of this simple device. Women, in particular, at a timid initial resistance, show much enthusiasm to operate the bucket pump as they consider it an easy and nearly familiar tool. Anyhow some training is necessary so that the equipment can be easily operated without incurring in some wrong operation which could cause injuries. The bucket pump is not appropriate for small children below ten years of age. |
