BOREHOLE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Staden system rolled up with loose components.

Uncoil  the system. 
Ensure that no dirt can get into the pipe.
Components: Gripper, Cylinder, Force head, baseplate, 2 springs, shaft, pipe & rope.
Ensure that the rope is fastened correctly to the gripper. 
Screw the gripper onto the bottom end of the cylinder. 
Tighten with vice grip.  Not too tight, as gripper is made of
steel and cylinder of plastic which can burst.
Connect the cylinder and force head on each side of the shaft using locknuts.
Attach the pipe to the male adaptor (cylinder) and the t-piece (forcehead).
Ensure that the pipe passes the o’ring of the fitting until it seats against the shoulder.
Tighten the fittings with a vice grip.
Ensure that the rope is fastened to the base plate correctly. 
The system is ready to be lowered into the borehole.
Move the system over the horizontal strut of the windmill tower and drop to ensure that the shaft does not kink.
Keep the rope taut so that the cam of the gripper is kept folded back in the housing until the correct depth is reached.  
Lower the system until the t-piece is 5cm for every 10m depth of the hole.
(50m hole = 25cm).
Release the rope until the gripper cam falls open and pull the pipe until the  t-piece is above the block.  Slide the base plate in (nut with rope facing downwards) and turn the t-piece to the right for water delivery.
