5. Before starting

Fit the carry handle as shown in Figure 4-5.
As a basic principle, we recommend the use of a pre-
liminary filter and a suction set with suction hose,
suction strainer and non-return valve, in order to pre-
vent long priming periods and unnecessary damage
to the pump as a result of stones and solid foreign
bodies.

5.1 Preparing the machine

Fill the engine with engine oil (see also point
7.2.1 Oil change).
Fill the tank with petrol.
Place the machine on a flat, firm surface.

6. Operation

74.3 dB The pump must be filled with the transport fluid at the
filler neck (Figure 1 / Item 3) before the engine is
started.
Note: We advise that you install a non-return valve in
the intake line and fill it with water before you start
the machine for the first time.

6.1 Starting the engine

1. Set the On/Off switch (Figure 1 / Item 10) to
2. Set the petrol cock (Figure 6 / Item A) to the

"Run" position when starting.

Connect the intake line to the intake connection
(Figure 1 / Item 5) and the discharge line to the
discharge connection (Figure 1 / Item 4).
Position the intake line so that it rises from the
water withdrawal point to the pump. It is essential
that you do not route the intake line above the
height of the pump. Air bubbles in the intake line
will slow down and prevent the intake process.
Install the intake and discharge lines in such a
way that they do not exert any mechanical pres-
sure on the pump.
The intake valve should be low enough in the
water to ensure that if the water level falls, the
pump will not run dry.
A leaking intake line will draw in air and therefore
not draw in any water.
Do not draw in any foreign bodies (sand, etc.). If
necessary install an initial filter.
