ECOMMENDATIONS
Regular maintenance will improve the performance and
extend the life of the water pump. See any qualified
dealer for service.
The water pump’s warranty does not cover items that
have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To
receive full value from the warranty, the operator must
maintain the water pump as instructed in this manual,
including proper storage as detailed in and “Long Term
Storage”.
NOTE: Should you have questions about replacing
components on your water pump, please call
1-888-436-3722 for assistance.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your water pump.
All service and adjustments should be made at least
once each season. Follow the requirements in the “Main-
tenance Schedule” chart.
NOTE: Once a year you should clean or replace the
spark plug, clean or replace the air filter, and check
the hoses for wear. A new spark plug and clean air fil-
ter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your
engine run better and last longer.
