The '''Super MoneyMaker Pressure Pump''' was launched in October 1998, in response to a demand by farmers for a pump that can push water uphill as well as simply pulling it up from the source. This means it is suitable for use on steeply sloping land where the water source may be at the bottom. Thousands use it to pump water from hand-dug wells, rivers, streams, lakes and ponds. It is ideal for sprinkler irrigation, filling overhead water tanks, or for use with nozzles and sprays attached to the end of the delivery hose. This powerful pump can draw water up from 23 feet (7m) and has a total pumping head of 46 feet (14m). It can be used to irrigate up to 2 acres of land.
It is essentially the [[Treadle pump]] by design. The Pump sucks the water to the cylinder, then pressurizes it, sending it through a crude sprinkler over the crop. The '''pump installation is not fixed and the pump can be moved around. The Super MoneyMaker Hip Pump''' is unique to KickStart; developed 's best-selling pump with over 163,200 sold to create a lower cost and lighter weight, portable date. ====Additional brochure====* [http://moneymakerpumps.org/ MoneyMaker Irrigation Pump] ====Number of pumps in various countries====[[Image:money maker pumpstats.
