Submersible pumps eliminate hand pumping for water.

  1. Pull 6 inches of 1/8-inch diameter stainless steel cable through the hole located on the top plate of the submersible pump housing. Fold the end of the rope to create a loop.

  2. Remove the hex nuts from two cable clamps. Separate the U-bolt from the saddle of each cable clamp.

  3. Slide both U-bolts over the loop in the stainless steel rope with the arches of the bolt resting on the short side of the loop. Slide one saddle on each U-bolt. Thread two nuts on each U-bolt to hold the saddles in position.

  4. Tighten the four hex nuts with a wrench. Ensure all four hex nuts are tight before lowering the pump in the well.
