Drive Unit 

 
This portable drive unit is designed to power the flexshaft driven pump. 
 
The motor is controlled by an ON/OFF push button which is mounted below the throttle lever 
on the handle. 
 
A centrifugal clutch is fitted to the motor which disengages the drive to the pump when the 
motor is idling. 
 
The clutch operates automatically and requires no adjustment. 
 
The motor is a 

4-stroke

 unit and must only be used with 

unleaded

 petrol. 

 
The pump is driven by a rotating flexible drive shaft that transmits the drive from the drive 
unit. 
 
 
 
 
NEVER allow an untrained person to operate machine without adequate instruction. 
 
ENSURE all operators read, understand and follow the operating instructions. 
 
SERIOUS INJURY may result from improper or careless use of this machine.  
 
Do not operate this machine in an impaired mental state. You must be able to exercise good 
judgement and reactions to maintain a safe working environment. 

 
 

! MECHANICAL HAZARDS 

 
 
ENSURE that the engine operation switch is in the OFF position and the spark plug ignition 
lead is disconnected before removing the guards or making adjustments. 
 
ENSURE both the pump and the operator are stable by setting up on a level surface. Make 
sure the machine does not tip over, slide or fall while in operation or unattended. 
 
DO NOT leave the machine in operation while it is unattended. 
 
Hold the pump by “D” handle attached and use the supplied carry strap to help support the 
weight. 
 
 
Allow the engine to cool before servicing or replacing parts. 
 
BE CAREFUL not to come in contact with the exhaust muffler when the engine is hot, since it 
can cause severe burns.  
 
ENSURE that repairs to the engine and machine are carried out by COMPETENT personnel.
