Wind is Free, USE IT !

Free Energy
Does not consume resources. No pollution.
The ecological machine of the century.

Nominal Maintenance
Requires little attention beyond a change of oil and quick check to sure unrestricted operation of the mill and accesories.


Broad Selection
Wheels range from 6' through 16' in diameter to give abundant power to pumping dephts in excess of 1000 feet.

Proven Dependability
Design proved by hundreds of thousands of installations. Parts interchangable with model 702 manufactured since the early 30's. Proudly displays the trade mark of the world's largest maufacturer of pumping windmills.

 Specifications of Construction
Positive Lubrication
Bearings and gears are constantly flooded with oil. Large oil ring picks up oil from large gears to keep upper bearings lubricated.

Balanced Operation
Large, double gears, pinions and pitman arms balance the load for efficient operation and minimun wear.
Heavy quide wheel keeps the pump rod aligned.

Galvanized Steel Helmet
Gives effective and lasting protection to internal parts from weather and elements.
Two Strokes
Gears and pitman arms are designed for easy change to the short stroke for greater pumping depht.
Strong Powerful wheel
Galvanized, round wheel arms screw into position to form a rigid wheel of strength without the use of bolts in the hub. Sails are heavily galvanized, are the right quantity and have the correct curvature to develop great power even in light breezes.
Reliable Buffer device
Effectively absorbs shock when the mill furls into the wind.
Self Regulating
Regulation is automatic to protect equipment in high winds. Manual furling device is below the mill, outside the tower and has no contact with moving parts.
Replaceable Babbitt Bearings
Run with nominal friction, take abuse, are long lasting and proved the most effective for windmills with multiple sails. Used on leading makes of quality mills since the turn of the century.

Top corner posts
Wrap around the sturdy mast pipe and dovetail to assure strength, rigidity and even load distribution to the heavy corner posts.


Girts and Round Braces
Are accurately gauged to take the guesswork out of assembly and give equal tension to each section.

Heavy horinzontal Girts
At seven-foot intervals simplify section-by-section assembly.

Heavy Anchor Posts
Have double angle crosspieces for firm foundation.

Loop Steps
Mount to heavy corner posts for solid support.

Built to Last
Heavily dip galvanized after fabrication.

How to Choose Windmill Equipment
1. Figure average daily water consumption by using the following guidelines:

Use Gallons per day
Person 100
Steer, horse 12
Dry Cow 15
Milking Cow 35
Hog 4
Sheep 2
Chicken, per 100 6
Turkeys, per 100 20

 

 

 

2. Divide average daily water consumption by 5 to arrive at equivalent hourly pumping capacity required from your mill. This is based on wind conditions permitting your mill to pump the equivalent of about 5 hours of rated capacity per day. Naturally this varies by locality.

3. Choose the diameter of the cylinder that is closest to the equivalent hourly pumping capacity, by using the table of capacities.

4. To calculate the total elevation of pumping from the level of water in the well to the discharge point.

5. To choose the mill measure to operate the cylinder when pumping to total elevation using the chart of capacities.

6. To choose a tower that summons the center of the wheel at least 15 feet for on the constructions to the wind inside a radius of 400 feet.

7. To choose a cylinder with a blow of at least 2 but I release that the blow of pumping of the mill.

8. To choose the bar of pumping, pipe and another accessories in the measures recommended for the cylinder specifies.

This is a general guide. Ask to their merchant FIASA to attend it in the election of the team that better she/he adapts to their specific requirements of pumping.

Capacities are approximate and based on the mill operating in winds as shown below. The short stroke increases pumping elevation one-third and reduces pumping capacity one-fouth.

In 12MPH winds, capacity is reduced about 20%; in 10MPH winds, about 38%. If prevailing winds are low, use of a cylinder smaller than shown will permit your mill to operate in lower winds.

Never use pipe smaller than the size specified for the cylinder. For deep wells, use ball valve or Marcy cylinders with ash rod, other type of floating pump rod or fiberglass rod.
