4-STEP PIPE PULLING PROCESS
When pulling pipes, landing the pulling cable into the host pipe can sometimes be the most challenging step in the process. Use of The ACME Suction Machine and our systematic multi-step approach ensures your success in landing the MAX Pulling Cable to the host lateral virtually every time with ease.
STEP 1
Connect the Suction Machine to the proximal end of the lateral, evacuate any remaining water and suck in a pull cord.
STEP 2
Then, while holding the landed string stationary, suck in 1 or 2 cups of biodegradable vegetable oil or liquid soap until it comes out the other end.
STEP 3
Now tie the landed pull cord to the 1/4″ leader cable and pull the leader cable in.
STEP 4
Then connect the 1/4″ leader cable to the MAX pulling cable and easily pull the MAX pulling cable in.
