Turning the crank makes the bottom of the helix scoop a small pocket of water or beads on each turn and carry it up the tube without sliding back, so students can see a rotary motion doing the work of lifting. Changing the incline shows that the screw stops lifting when it is set too steep, and counting turns to fill the basin to a 100 mL mark gives a simple flow-rate measurement.
