can damage it, shorten its life and void your warranty.
Use the semi-trash pump only for intended uses.
Operate only on level surfaces. DO NOT expose
semi-trash pump to excessive moisture, dust, or dirt.
DO NOT allow any material to block the cooling slots.
DO NOT use the semi-trash pump if:

CAUTION
Exceeding the semi-trash pump’s specification for
maximum head can damage the semi-trash pump
and/or hose kits connected to it.
DO NOT modify the semi-trash pump in any
way. DO NOT attempt to exceed the rated flow.
Attempting to increase the rated flow may damage
the unit and/or shorten its life.
CAUTION
Rapid retraction of the starter cord will pull hand and
arm towards the engine faster than you can let go.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could
result.
When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly
until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid
kickback.
WARNING
Water pumped through this unit shall NOT be used
as drinking water.
WARNING
DO NOT pump salt, sludge, sewer, sea, or any other
type of water containing solid material.
WARNING
Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and
extremely explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
DANGER
When adding or removing fuel:
Turn the engine off and let it cool for at least two
minutes before removing the fuel cap. Loosen the
cap slowly to relieve pressure in the tank.
Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT pump gas directly into the engine at the
gas station. Use an approved container to transfer
the fuel to the engine.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always keep fuel away from sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
When starting the engine:
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged engine. Make
certain that the gas cap, air filter, spark plug,
fuel lines and exhaust system are properly in
place. Allow spilled fuel to evaporate fully before
attempting to start the engine.
Make certain that the semi-trash pump is resting
firmly on level ground.
When operating the semi-trash pump:
DO NOT move or tip the semi-trash pump during
operation.
DO NOT tip the semi-trash pump or allow fuel or oil
to spill from the engine. Block the wheels to prevent
unintended movement.
When transporting or servicing the semi-trash
pump:
Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the off
position and the fuel tank is empty.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the semi-trash pump:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat and other sources of ignition.
Lay sturdy planking along each side of the hose or
pipe, when the hose or pipe runs across any type
of roadway. Make sure that the planking length will
run the length of the roadway. This will ensure some
protection of the hose or pipe from any passing
vehicles.
CAUTION
