4) Move the throttle lever away
from the SLOW position, about
1/3 of the way towards the
FAST position.
5) Turn the engine switch to the
ON position.
6) Pull the recoil starter grip
lightly until resistance is felt,
then pull the grip briskly. Return
the starter grip gently.
7) If the choke lever has been
moved the closed position to
start the engine, gradually move
it to the open position as the
engine warms up.
Setting Engine Speed
Position the throttle lever for the
desired speed. Moving the
throttle lever to the left or right
will make the engine run faster
or slower.
After starting the engine, move
the throttle lever to the FAST
position and check the pump
output.
The pump output is controlled
by adjusting the engine speed.
Moving the throttle lever in the
FAST direction will increase
pump output and moving the
throttle lever in the SLOW
direction will decrease the pump
output.
Stopping the Engine
1) Move the throttle lever to the
SLOW position.
2) Turn the engine switch to the
OFF position.
3) Turn the fuel valve lever to the
OFF position.
When the pump is not in use,
leave the fuel valve lever in the
OFF position to prevent the
carburetor from flooding and to
reduce the chance of fuel
leakage.
After use, remove the drain plug
and drain the pump chamber.
Remove the filler camp and flush
the pump chamber then reinstall
the filler camp and drain plug.

WARNING: Gasoline is highly
flammable and explosive. Stop
the engine and keep heat, flame
and sparks away. Handle fuel
only outdoors. Wipe up spills
immediately.
With the engine stopped and on a
level surface, remove the tank
cap and check the fuel tank. Refill
the tank if the level is low. Do not
fill the tank completely. Fill it to
approximately one inch below the
top of the fuel tank. Ensure the

allow it to cool. Refuel carefully to
avoid spilling the fuel.
