High Altitude Operation - Kohler WA 2.0 Manual Del Propietário

Cold Weather Starting
NOTE: Ensure water in pump body is not
frozen before starting.
When starting pump in low ambient
temperatures, allow engine to idle before
increasing flow of liquid. Follow chart for
temperature and time.
< -4° F (< -20° C)
-4° to 14° F (-20° to -10° C)
14° to 23° F (-10° to -5° C)
> 41° F (> 5° C)
1. Use proper oil for temperature expected.
2. Use fresh winter grade fuel. Winter grade
fuel has higher volatility to improve starting.
Operation
Rotating Parts can cause severe
injury.
Stay away while pump is in
operation.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away
from all moving parts to prevent injury. Never
operate pump with covers, shrouds, or
guards removed.
NOTE: If there is no flow of liquid through
pump, stop it and check suction circuit
(suction strainer (N) and pipes).
NOTE: Avoid placing any flammable materials
near exhaust outlet during operation.
Do not place any material on pump
during operation.
Pump controls flow of liquid in accordance with
its running speed. Pump engine is equipped
with a lever (F) that enables flow from pump to
be controlled.
Flow from pump also depends on suction
and discharge elevation heads and on quality
of liquid that is being pumped (clean/muddy
water).
Angle of Operation
Do not operate this engine exceeding maximum
angle of operation; see specification table.
Engine damage could result from insufficient
lubrication.

configuration at a given altitude may increase
its emissions, decrease fuel efficiency and
performance, and result in damage to the
engine.
