OPERATION
1. Start
(1) Set the fuel cock lever
①
to "OPEN" .
(2) Set the throttle
②
to "START/SUCTION".
(3) Set the main switch
③
to "RUN". In self-starting, turn it to
"START". In start by recoil starter, tread on the step, and pull the
recoil starter handle as shown on the right figure.
(4) The engine starts.
Notes:
1. The engine will sometimes start with difficulty due to excess of
fuel in re-start after warm-up operation. Then, return the
throttle fully toward "SLOW", and start the engine. If the engine
does not start yet, set the fuel cock once to "CLOSE" and start
the engine. After the engine starts, reset the fuel cock to
"OPEN".
2. This fire-fighting pump is equipped with a decompressor to
reduce pulling force of the recoil starter handle. The
decompressor runs regularly when a leak noise can be
confirmed when pulling the recoil starter handle lightly. If there
is no leak noise from the decompressor, push the clear button
on the top of the decompressor.
3. Be careful not to pull the recoil starter rope excessively to the
full.
4. Never start and stop the engine repeatedly without water
suction. Fuel mixture remaining unburnt may cause explosion
(after-fire).
2. Water discharge
(1) After engine startup, set the water suction lever
④
to "SUCTION" (until the lever come in contact with the stopper), and run the
vacuum pump.
(2) When water is discharged continuously from the exhaust pipe of the vacuum pump, reset the water suction lever to
"DISCHARGE" securely and smoothly. If there is any bend halfway on the water suction pipe, air may remain there. To prevent
this, keep the water suction lever running 3 to 5 seconds longer than actually required.
(3) After confirming safety of the pipe end, slowly open the water discharge valve
⑤
keeping the throttle set to "START/SUCTION".
After starting water discharge, adjust the throttle to attain adequate discharge pressure.

ventilation room.
Pull the starter
rope about 50cm.
Pull the starter
rope strongly
