Kewanee Pumping Outfits 



Have you a pumping problem to solve ? Do you want to pump water from a well ? From 

 a cistern ? From a spring ? From a lake or river ? From any source ? 



Let us show you the most economical and satisfactory solution of your pumping problem. 

 For more than ten years we have been solving water supply problems. Over nine thousand of those 

 problems have been solved successfully by Kewanee Systems. We have fur- 

 nished complete water supply plants for over nine thousand people, with 

 absolutely satisfactory results to our customers. 



As we developed our complete water supply plants, we also developed and 

 perfected Kewanee Pumping Machinery. The technical knowledge of our engin- 

 eers, combined with our broad practical experience, is placed at your service, 

 whether you require a complete water supply plant or an outfit for pumping only. 

 Our pumping outfits are adapted for any special pumping service, as well 

 as for use with 



The Kewanee System 

 of Water Supply 



Kewanee Pumping Engines represent a great 

 stride in the construction of gasoline-power 

 pumping engines. The engine in itself and 

 combined with our specially designed pumps, is 

 revolutionary in this field, just as Kewanee 

 Pneumatic Tanks revolutionized the methods 

 of storing and delivering water under pressure. 



The Kewanee Pumping Engine is furnished 

 in two types. In one form, the engine is directly 

 connected with a deep-well pump. The other 

 type includes the engine combined with a suc- 

 tion pump. The latter is for short lifts from 

 shallow wells, cisterns, streams, etc. 



The engine can be quickly disconnected from 

 the pump and used alone for other power pur- 

 poses. The convenience of this arrangement will 

 be appreciated where power is desired for operat- 

 ing laundry machines, churns, feed cutters, etc. 



A Few Details 



The engine is built throughout in 

 accordance with the best practice in the 



construction of automobile engines. The 

 engine in a high priced touring car, does not 

 represent a greater degree of perfect mech- 

 anism than we have combined in this 2\ H. P. 

 gasoline engine. 



The entire mechanism of the Kewanee 

 Engine is "open and above board." Every 

 part is immediately accessible. 



The ignition system on the Kewanee Engine 

 is equal to that of a $5000 automobile — jump 

 spark— "Breech-Block" spark plug, instantly 

 removable. 



Every part of a Kewanee Pumping Engine 

 where wear may occur, is adjustable for 

 wear. Bronze bushings are used at those wear- 

 ing points. In years to come, instead of buy- 

 ing a new pumping engine, it will only be 

 necessary to replace a few bronze bushings. 



The engine cylinder is cast is one piece like 

 the cylinder on an automobile engine. All 

 troubles due to loss of compression, are en- 

 tirely avoided. 



Limited space makes it impossible to say more here. Our gasoline 

 pumping engine catalog contains a complete description and many illustra- 

 tions. Write for that catalog and tell us about your water supply require- 

 ments. _ If you want the pumping outfit only, mention the source of supply, 

 and if it is a well, give us its three dimensions — depth, diameter, and distance 

 from the ground level to the water level. Give flow of well in gallons 

 per minute. 



If you require a complete water system, ask for our complete 64-page 

 catalog No. 16. Either or both catalogs will be sent free, on request. As 

 a special favor, mention this publication in your letter.
