PREPARATIONS BEFORE OPERATION
1. Fill the fuel.
Fill the fuel tank with automobile gasoline.
(Separate
lubricating system used: It is not necessary to mix with
2-cycle oil.)
The level of the fuel in the tank can be checked by the fuel
gauge on the tank top.
Notes:
1. Never feed fuel full up to the tank feeding port.
2. If fuel stored for a long time emits irritating odor or appears
turbid, replace it immediately.
3. If water or dust remains in the fuel cock cup, remove and clean
the cup.
2. Fill the oil.
Fill the oil tank with 2-cycle engine oil.
Note
: Never fill oil fully up to the tank fill port.
3. Set the pump
Pay attention to the following.
(1) The muffler is mounted at the bottom part. Never
operate on dry grass.
(2) When carrying the pump, be sure to hold it correctly
with the carrying handle.
(3) Set the pump as near as possible to a water suction level so as to minimize suction height. Place the pump as
level as possible.
(4) To prevent air bubbles in the suction pipe, place the suction pipe in an up-grade manner.
(5) Attach a strainer or a rattan basket to the port of the suction pipe. If there is fear of sand or dirt suction, place a
mat under the rattan basket.
(6) Set the rattan basket at a level about 30 cm under water so that air will not be introduced.
(7) Place the water discharge hose so that it will not be bent halfway.
4. Shut the discharge valve and muffler drain cock.
Note
: Keep the cylinder drain cock always “CLOSE” other than in operation described later in “6. For longer no-load operation”.
