Filling with Gasoline and Oil

FUEL IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND POISONOUS

ALWAYS FILL THE TANK WITH

ENGINE OFF AND COOL. 

ALWAYS CHECK THE FUEL LEVEL

BEFORE OPERATING.

Allow the engine to cool for at least two minutes before 

removing the fuel cap. 

1.  Place the semi-trash pump on a level surface. Set up the 

semi-trash pump outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away 

from building air intakes. The pump should be protected from 

direct exposure to rain and snow. Do not set up the pump on a 

conductive surface such as a metal deck. 

2.  The fuel tank holds approximately 0.90 gallon of fuel. 87+ 

octane unleaded gasoline is recommended. Do not fill above 

the top of the fuel filter. Replace the fuel cap securely and wipe 

any excess from the fuel tank before starting the generator.

DO NOT REFUEL INDOORS OR NEAR ANY SOURCE 

OF POSSIBLE COMBUSTION. 

DO NOT SMOKE WHILE FUELING.

DO NOT OVERFILL.

THE SEMI-TRASH  PUMP IS SHIPPED

WITHOUT FLUIDS.

YOU MUST ADD OIL BEFORE STARTING THE 

ENGINE.

3.  Add engine oil to the upper level of the oil filler hole. SAE 

10/30 motor oil is recommended for most environmental 

conditions. The oil capacity is 0.50 quarts (0.5).

Note: Do not thread the dipstick in when checking the oil level.
