DRAINING THE PUMP

Risk of injury or damage to equipment.
• Do not remove priming plug, drain plug, pump housing or inlet or discharge hose fittings when pump is hot. Hot water and/or vapor
inside could be pressurized.
If the pump is subject to freezing temperatures, pump housing must be thoroughly drained of any water to prevent damage from freezing.
1. Allow the unit to cool completely.
2. After the unit has cooled, remove drain plug and priming plug from pump housing and drain any water left in the pump.
3. Make sure the suction and discharge lines are free of water.
4. After draining, reinstall the drain plug and priming plug.

TRANSPORTING THE PUMP

1. Allow unit to cool completely.
2. Empty the fuel tank or close the fuel valve.
3. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place the wire where it cannot contact the plug.
4. Make sure that the pump is kept level to reduce the possibility of oil or fuel leakage.
5. Ensure that the pump is securely strapped down in the transport vehicle to prevent it from sliding or tipping.
6. Do not refuel the pump in or on the transport vehicle. Move the pump to its operating location and then fill the fuel tank.

STORAGE

Risk of injury or damage to equipment.
• Do not remove priming plug, drain plug, pump housing or inlet or discharge hose fittings when pump is hot. Hot water and/or vapor inside
could be pressurized.
• Store the pump in a well-ventilated area away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers, or other appliances that have a pilot
light or other ignition source (heat, flame, sparks, etc.) because they can ignite fuel vapors.
If pump is being stored for more than 30 days:
1. Allow the unit to cool completely.
2. After the unit has cooled, remove drain plug and priming plug from pump housing and drain any water left in the pump.
3. Clean inside of pump housing per the "Cleaning" section of this manual.
4. Coat inside of pump with a light film of oil to reduce corrosion.
5. Tape up suction and discharge ports to prevent anything from accidentally entering the pump.
6. Refer to and follow instructions in the engine manufacturer's owner's manual for engine storage.
7. Cover pump and engine and store in a clean, dry area.
