3.7.
Fuel level check.
Do not add fuel over the fuel strainer shoulder (maximum level (2).
Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when filling your fuel tank.
3.7.1.
Before each operation of the water pump, check the fuel level with the water pump placed
on a level ground. Un-screw the fuel tank cap and check the fuel level. If the level is too low,
add fuel, screw on the fuel tank cap and tighten it.
3.7.2.
Only use straight unleaded petrol (3).
3.7.3.
Never use stale or contaminated petrol or a mixture of oil and petrol and avoid getting dirt
or water in the fuel tank.

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
4.1.
Safe Operating Precautions.
4.1.1.
To ensure safe usage of the water pump, you must make sure that you fully understand how
to operate it properly and how to use the controls.
4.1.2.
Before operating the water pump for the first time, please make sure you have read the
SAFETY Instructions and PRE-OPERATION inspection elements of this manual carefully.
4.1.3.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide fumes that can build up to dangerous levels in
enclosed areas. Breathing in carbon monoxide fumes can cause unconsciousness or death.
4.2.
Pump placement.
4.2.1.
For best pump performance, place the water pump near the water level and use hoses
of the correct length and no longer than is necessary. This will allow the pump to produce
the greatest output.
4.2.2.
As the head increases, the pump output decreases. The length, type and size of both the
suction and discharge hose can also significantly affect the pumps output. By placing the pump
near water level, therefore minimizing the suction head, this also reduces priming time.
