Scottish Water have used Tiger PROCB chain blocks in a project to remove a nine tonne screw pump from underneath the ground as part of the ongoing upgrade of McDonald Road Waste Water Pumping Station.
The removal of the foul screw required careful planning and coordination, due to its weight and size. The screw, which is eight metres long, was removed by a crane with the teams on site taking extreme care in the difficult conditions. Following its removal, the foul screw will be replaced in the coming weeks.
