Pipeline leak repair:
To check for pipeline leaks, start by digging a bellhole about 1.80 meter wide and 3
meters long. Then, dig lengthwise along the pipeline to locate the leak. Once the leak is
located, position the unit to dig at grade level on both sides of the pipeline. If a section of
pipe is to be replaced, strip the soil from both ends of the bellhole. Enlarge the hole enough
to allow the workmen adequate working space in the leak area.
