How far can I pump thry 3/4 inch tubing on flat land. I have so much mud I can only get within 400-500 feet. Don't care how fast it goes. I would rather not pump from collection tank to another tank then pump from that tank to the tractor.

wx 10 is very capable of pumping 500 ft. we pumped thousands of gallons through a 1 inch black pipe over the last few seasons. flat ground no problem...

Thank you I have a line on 1 inch black pipe so I can get it in today to get any sap that runs today. It's 45 degrees overcast and the rain is supposed to stop some time this evening. Running black pipe a 9pm is not what I want but I think that will be the only way to save the season

Plenty of pump for that. I used to pump 300ft with a 40 ft incline to sugarhouse. No problem.

You will be fine at that distance. I used a 1" pipe and pumped the sap 1500' with a 25' or so change in elevation with my WX 10. It was slow but got the job done.
