Step 8Put the Frame and Pump Together

Put the Frame and Pump Together
Build your frame according to the drawings provided or according to the size of gutter and base available to you.

Fit the pump onto the frame in the preferred upper or lower position depending on the age of the children who will be playing with it. Use the 12.5cm bolts through both front and back parts of the pump casing and hold in place with wing nuts. This is much less fiddly than removing only the bolts on the rear of the pump. Hold in place with wing nuts.

Fit a pipe clamp onto the frame to hold the longer of the in and out pipes (this will depend on which pump position you are using). This will keep the pipes attached firmly to the frame if kids pull on them. As you can see from the photos we didn't find quite the right size and used a couple of cable ties to help hold it all together.
