SETTING ENGINE SPEED
Position the throttle lever for the desired engine speed.
For engine speed recommendations, refer to the instructions provided with the
equipment powered by this engine.
SERVICING YOUR PUMP
If you operate your water pump under severe conditions, such as sustained high-
load or high-temperature operation, or use in unusually wet or dusty conditions,
consult your technician for recommendations applicable to your individual needs
and use.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, genuine parts or their
equivalents for repair and replacement.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repair.
This will eliminate several potential hazards:
●
Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.
Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you operate the water pump.
●
Burns from hot parts.
Let the water pump cool before touching.
●
Injury from moving parts.
Do not run the water pump unless instructed to do so.
Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools and
skills required.
To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when working around
gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not gasoline, to clean parts. Keep
cigarettes, sparks and flames away from all fuel related parts.
Remember that a technician knows your water pump best and is fully equipped to
maintain and repair it.
