INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
IMPORTANT: Filter should be placed on the
extreme of the suction hose.
CONNECTING THE HOSES
• Properly secure the hose with the hose band.
• At the end of the suction hose install the fil-
ter before pumping. Gravel or debris sucked
into the pump will cause serious damage to
the engine.
• Next connect the discharge hose.
FOR A SAFE OPERATION
Operate in well-ventilated areas. For outdoor
use. Keep at least 1 m (3 feet) distance from
flammable substances. In the case of fuel leak-
2
age stop engine. Do not smoke near the water
pump. Before starting clean any fuel spillage.
ENGINE OIL

gine starting without an appropriate oil level.
NOTE: Running the engine with low oil level
will cause serious engine damage.

3. If the level is low, fill to the top of the oil
filler neck with a 4-stroke engine oil.
FUEL (GASOLINE)
WARNING: Gasoline is extremely flamma-
7
ble, and gasoline vapor can explode. Use ex-
treme care when handling gasoline.
· Keep gasoline out of reach of children.
· Refuel in a well ventilated area with the en-
gine stopped.
· Keep flames and sparks away, and do not
smoke in the area.
· Gasoline vapors or spilled gasoline may ignite.
· Refuel carefully to avoid spilling gasoline.
· Avoid overfilling the fuel tank.
· After refueling, tighten the fuel cap securely.
NOTE: If any gasoline was spilled, make sure
the area is dry before starting the engine.
BEFORE THE OPERATION
The pump chamber should be completely filled
before operating. Never attempt to operate
the pump without priming water or the pump
will overheat. Extended dry operation will de-
stroy the pump seal.
If the unit has been operated dry, stop the en-
gine immediately and allow the pump to cool
before adding priming water.
IMPORTANT: Fill the pump chamber when
the engine it's cooled and in no operation.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. OPEN the fuel valve.
2. CLOSE the choke lever.
3. Turn the engine switch to the ON position.
4. Slightly accelerate the throttle lever.
5. Pull the starter grip lightly until resistance is
felt, then pull it briskly until starts.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow the starter grip
to snap back against the engine. Return it gen-
tly to prevent damage to the starter.
