2. Warnings and safety instructions.
Protection is required for head, eyes, ears,
hands and feet. Wear a suitable hard hat,
goggles, ear covers, heavy gloves and safety
shoes.
Dress properly, do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry that could become caught in moving
parts of the unit.
Never let a child or inexperienced person
operate the machine.
Be sure to check bolts and other fasteners to
see if any of them have become lose or are
missing.
Empty the fuel tank before storing the
tool. Especially, in case of over three
month storage, it is essential as fuel may
corrode causing carburetor damage. It is
recommended that the fuel be emptied
after each use. If fuel is left in the tank,
store so fuel will not leak.
Never operate the engine with gasoline only.
This engine uses a fuel mix of 25-50 parts
regular gasoline to 1 part of two-stroke oil.
The fuel should be premixed prior to pouring
into the fuel tank. It is recommended quality
two-stroke oil be used in the fuel mix.
Failure to mix oil with gasoline will result in
seizure and severe damage to the engine.
Do not use gasoline containing alcohol or
gasohol.
Do not smoke when the fuel is supplied, and
when you are working with the machine.
Do not touch tank cap or fill the fuel tank
while the engine is running or still warm. The
fuel should be poured into the fuel tank when
the engine is cold.
Never start the machine without priming water
in the pump. It will cause serious damage to
the engine and the pump. The manufacturer
cannot guarantee in this case.
Care must be taken to ensure that an air
tight connection is made between the female
unions, and the male pump stubs. An air leak
at either union will greatly reduce the pump
efficiency, or no water is pumped at all.
A strainer should always be used on the
suction hase, to prevent debris from entering
the pump body, and causing possible damage
to the impeller.
The unit should be operated in well
ventilated area.
Never carry the unit with the engine running.
For safety, the unit should not be started
without priming water.
Do not pump oil etc, which is flammable.
After the pumping of seawater, chemical fluid
or urine, wash the pump with fresh water.
