INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL
STARTING PROCEDURE
• Place your pump on a hard, stable surface within 15° from horizontal
• Check the oil
• Check the fuel tank level
• Connect your suction hose. Make sure that there is a rubber seal on the adapter and screw it tight.
• Close the drain valve below the casing of the pump.
• Open the priming valve between the pump casing and the venturi connected to the exhaust system
• Start the engine and let it idle.
• Close the exhaust port
• Speed up the engine with the throttle cable to its maximum speed
• When water comes out of the venturi (it should take approximately 15 to 30 sec. with a 10 ft x 4¨ suction hose), close the priming
valve
• Open the discharge valve to allow water to run through the pump
• Open the exhaust port
• Adjust the RPM to desired pressure
N.B. 1
The exhaust system is very hot. Do not touch
N.B. 2
When you are done with the pump, always drain the pump casing
TROUBLESHOOTING
Before calling us, try the following if your pump does not operate properly.
If the engine seems to speed up and down (lost of suction)
• Make sure the suction hose is straight and does not allow any air pockets to be trapped.
• Check any air leakage in the suction or mechanical seal (between the pump casing and the engine)
Loss of suction head.
• Check the rubber seal in the suction hose
The pump is not pumping as much as it should and the revolutions of the engine are high
• Check for any obstruction in the suction hose (leaves, rocks, etc.)
BREAK-IN PERIOD
Do not use the pump more than 1/2 throttle for the first one and half hour.
