Lift and hold the upper pipe high enough to expose the pump rod coupling.

Place one open end wrench over the lower portion of the pump rod coupling. Hold this wrench steady.

Place another wrench on the upper portion of the pump rod coupling. Turn this wrench counterclockwise until the coupling separates.

Pull the upper pipe away from the pump and lay it on its side away from the pump.

Do not lay the pipe directly in grass or dirt, as you may get contaminants into the pipe that could obstruct water flow.
