Operation

If you have any problems operating your trash pump, please
contact your local Briggs & Stratton service center.

Safe Operating Considerations

Clearances and Air Movement
WARNING
Exhaust heat/ gases can ignite combustibles,
structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire.
• Keep at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) clearance on all sides of trash pump
including overhead.
Place trash pump outdoors in an area that will not
accumulate deadly exhaust gas. DO NOT place trash pump
where exhaust gas (A) could accumulate and enter inside or
be drawn into a potentially occupied building. Ensure
exhaust gas is kept away from any windows, doors,
ventilation intakes, or other openings that can allow exhaust
gas to collect in a confined area. Prevailing winds and air
currents should be taken into consideration when positioning
trash pump.
WARNING
Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an
odorless, colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache,
fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion, seizures,
nausea, fainting or death.
• Operate trash pump ONLY outdoors.
• Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through
windows, doors, ventilation intakes, or other openings.
• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, even
if windows and doors are open.

What is "Head"?
Head refers to the height of a column of water that can be
delivered by the discharge of the pump.
Suction Head is the vertical distance between the center of
the pump and the surface of the liquid on the suction side of
the pump. May also be referred to as "suction lift". The
atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi at sea level limits suction
head lift to less than approximately 26 feet for any pump.
Discharge Head is the vertical distance between the pump's
discharge port and the point of discharge, which is the liquid
surface if the hose is submerged or pumping into the bottom
of a tank.
Total Head is the sum of the suction head value plus the
discharge head value.
As water pumping height increases, pump output decreases.
The length, type, and size of the suction and discharge hoses
can also significantly affect pump output.
It is important for the suction operation to be the shorter
part of the total pumping action. This will decrease the
priming time and improve pump performance by increasing
the discharge head.
Suction head is a maximum of 25 feet and discharge head
should be a maximum of 92 feet. Total head can not be more
than 117 feet as shown on next page.

Move Trash Pump to Safe Operating Location

For best pump performance, locate the pump on a flat, level
surface as close as possible to the water to be pumped.
Secure trash pump to avoid tipover. Use hoses that are no
longer than necessary.
IMPORTANT: Direct open end of discharge hose away from
home, electrical devices or anything not desired to get wet.
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
WHEN OPERATING EQUIPMENT
• This trash pump is not for use in mobile equipment or marine
applications.
• DO NOT tip engine or equipment at angle which causes fuel to
spill.
• Secure trash pump. Loads from hoses may cause tip over.
