Here are the photos of my installation. The only problem I encountered was that the needle-type valve was too big to fit into the strainer-equipped pipe I had purchased previously.
So I had to add a larger pipe segment to the installation to accommodate it.
The installation is therefore composed from top to bottom:
of the pump,
additional segment for the passage of the needle type valve
strainer pipe
of the non-return strainer
Pipe passage through the concrete trap (with the characteristics of the additional pipe segment)
Connection (additional segment on the left, strainer pipe on the right)
Connection additional pipe segment / pump base (secured with hose clamp)
Removal of the pump body, the base gasket is visible
needle type valve (too thick to fit into the strainer pipe, hence the addition of the pipe segment)
needle valve in place
Here I hope that will answer your questions, do not hesitate to contact me again if necessary ...

Re: Discovery of a well in the garden, installation of a hand pump
A big thank you for your sharing of experience which has greatly helped me in the completion of my project (which for me is more about tinkering than a lasting DIY ...)
But the goal has been reached: I will have water to plant my trees this winter!
Small photos of my situation for who will find it useful:
At the end of this pump, I connected a non-return valve bought from irrijardin then a 4m PVC pipe at the end of which I put a strainer. I did not use necklaces on the other hand but blue glue (as advised by the seller, I hope it will hold !!)
To raise it and make it a little "cleaner" I used a modest earthenware pot.
While waiting for better ...!
Good evening to all !
PS: what did the water analyzes give? Who to do them with?

Re: Discovery of a well in the garden, installation of a hand pump
Ahaha it's great as an installation!
Regarding the analyzes, I ultimately did not do them. It costs between 65 and 100 € and for the moment the water is only used to rinse my compost bucket.
But I would be curious to try to see if I can water my animals with it although it remains to be seen, the metal of the pump already gives it a fairly strong smell and color from the start.

Your animals will not drink it if it presents a danger to them ...

The only thing safe in the future. It is that there may chance that it conforms to our expectations ...
