A lever operated hand pump for jobs that do not justify a power pack: emergency lowering when the engine is off, commissioning and testing a new circuit, bleeding air, or a low duty cycle function used a few times a day.

Also worth fitting as a backup alongside a powered circuit — a hand pump plumbed in through a check valve means a raised load can always be brought down safely, even with a flat battery or a failed pump.
