4. Description
Experience a rare inside look at the moving parts of a traditional Aermotor windmill—an iconic wind-powered machine used across the American Great Plains for more than a century. This video shows how the gearbox converts the spinning blades into a vertical pumping motion used to draw water from deep wells.

8. Advantages
Uses free renewable energy
Low maintenance and long service life
Ideal for remote rural areas
Proven technology with over 100 years of reliability
---
9. Disadvantages
Requires consistent wind to operate effectively
Pumping speed depends on wind conditions
Mechanical parts need occasional lubrication and checks
---
10. How It Works
1. The wind rotates the windmill blades.
2. The rotation drives the gearbox located at the top of the tower.
3. The gearbox converts the spinning motion into an up-and-down movement using a crank and pitman system.
4. This vertical motion drives the pump rod down the tower.
5. The rod powers a piston pump in the well, lifting groundwater to the surface.
