ASSEMBLY
Pouring fuel too fast through the fuel screen may
result in blow back of fuel at the operator while filling.
WARNING
Add Fuel Cont’d.
Add Fuel
1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a
minimum octane rating of 85 and an ethanol content
of less than 10% by volume.
2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.
3. Clean the area around the fuel cap.
4. Remove the fuel cap.
5. Slowly add fuel to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Fuel can expand after filling. A minimum of
¼
in.
(6.4 mm) of space left in the tank is required
for fuel expansion, more than
¼
in. (6.4 mm) is
recommended. Fuel can be forced out of the tank as
a result of expansion if it is overfilled, and can affect
the stable running condition of the product. When
filling the tank, it is recommended to leave enough
space for the fuel to expand.
6. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blend
fuels. When using blended fuels there are some issues
worth noting:
– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
– These blends can eventually separate, leaving water or
a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor.
– With gravity-fed fuel supplies, this compromised fuel
can be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage to
the engine and/or potential hazards.
– There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that are
formulated to work with ethanol blend fuels.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using improper
fuel, improperly stored fuel, and/or improperly
formulated stabilizers, are not covered by
manufacture’s warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply, run the
engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank when the
equipment is not in use for more than 30 days.
NOTE
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
octane rating of 85.
Do not mix oil and gasoline.
Fill tank to approximately
¼
in. (6.4 mm) below the
top of the tank to allow for fuel expansion.
DO NOT pump gas directly into the chemical pump
at the gas station. Use an approved container to
transfer the fuel to the chemical pump.
DO NOT fill fuel tank indoors.
DO NOT fill fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the
fuel tank.
CAUTION
Connecting Hose or Pipes
Hoses or pipes can be connected to the pump using
2 in. (5.1 cm) NPT pipe fittings.
Teflon tape is required to ensure a liquid tight seal.
Do not connect rigid pipe directly to the pump as this
can cause excess stress that can damage the pump.
Always use at least 12 in. (30.5 cm) of flexible hose
between the pump and any rigid piping.
Clear Water Use
Apply thread tape to the outlet elbow (1) and then install
it securely to the pump housing.
Apply thread tape to the two threaded barbed fittings (2)
and securely install one in the suction port and the other
in the outlet elbow.
Do not use as clear water pump if previously used to
move chemicals.
