Pre-Operation
DO NOT USE OLD FUEL OVER 30 DAYS. FUEL SHOULD BE CLEAN
AND FRESH. FUEL AROUND THE BOTTOM OF DRUM CONTAINS DIRT,
IMPURITIES AND WATER. UNUSED FUEL IN TANK (IF KEPT MORE
THAN 30 DAYS) MAY CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE.
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE, PLEASE CHECK IF ENGINE OIL IS FILLED
TO REQUIRED LEVEL.
2. Make sure suction hose is connected properly.
Note: Failure to use approved non-collaps-
ible suction hose and recommended
hose strainer at all times during op-
eration of pump will void the warranty
of the pump and engine.
3. Fill pump with water before use.
4. Priming: this pump is self-priming, however it
still requires the pump body to be lled with
water. Running the pump without lling with
water can result in mechanical seal failure.
5. Hose connections: If the pump fails to pump
water in a short time, the suction hose
connection could be leaking air. Stop the engine
and check the suction hose connection and
re-start the engine.
As pump is self-priming type, ll water fully from priming port into pump before run-
ning. Insufcient water can cause damage to pump.
CAUTION RUNNING WITHOUT FILLING WITH WATER CAN DAMAGE
MECHANICAL SEAL.
