It is designed as family pump for serving user groups of about 20 to 100 people. It can be used for irrigation of family gardens. Like all direct action pump the operation is not ergonomically favourable, therefore prolonged pumping is not recommended.
 
====Maya-Yaku pump, a Tara pump alternative====
The Maya-Yaku direct action pump is a version of the Tara pump that is used in Central-America and Bolivia. It is slightly different from Tara regarding the use of materials in certain components, but the changes do not alter the basic principles of the original design.
 
The simplicity of the design means that it is straightforward to maintain and repair.
