Connecting Hoses - Simpson SSTP71007 Manual De Uso Y Cuidado

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts, such
as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Alcohol-blended fuels (also
called gasohol, ethanol, or methanol) attract moisture, which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic fuel and gum deposits can damage the engine's
fuel system while in storage. Effects of old, stale, or contaminated fuel are not covered
under warranty.
NOTE: Using a fuel stabilizer (sold separately) when storing gasoline will help prevent
problems related to ethanol alcohol in outdoor power equipment engines. Always follow
the instructions provided by the fuel stabilizer manufacturer to mix and use correctly.
Overfilling the fuel tank can result in carbon canister damage (if equipped), poor engine
performance, and void the warranty. To avoid these hazards, do not fill the fuel tank
above the maximum level.
1. Check fuel with the pump on a level surface and the engine off.
2. Do not use gasoline that is older than 30 days. Use only fresh, clean regular
unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
Do not use gasoline that contains more than 10% ethyl alcohol. E15, E20, and E85 are
not approved fuels and should not be used.
3. Do not fill the fuel tank above the maximum fuel level so as to allow room for fuel
expansion. For fuel capacity see the SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual.

CONNECTING HOSES

The suction and discharge hoses are not included. Assemble them as per
the manufacturer instructions. Make sure all connections are sealed properly. Air leaks
may cause the pump to lose prime and not pump at full efficiency.
