Pump Priming
NOTE: Running the pump with no liquid will cause
damage. Make sure the pump is primed before
operation.
Make sure the circulation pump is appropriately
primed every time the unit is started. If the pump
does not automatically prime within 20 seconds of the
circulation pump starting (no visible churn in the liquid
being pumped), stop the unit and manually prime the
pump following the instructions below.
Manual Pump Priming

2. Replace the plug and jog the pump for a few
seconds to remove any air in the circulation
system.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 until the pump is primed.
The liquid in the mixing tank will begin to
noticeably churn once the pump is primed.
Maintenance and Storage
• There is no need to lubricate the pump. The seal is
lubricated and cooled by the
fl
uid that is pumped.
• Drain the pump body after use if there is a danger
of freezing.
• If the engine will be unused for long periods of
time, drain the pump, leave the
fi
ll and drain plugs
out of the pump, and store the unit in a heated, dry
building.
• See the engine manual for further instructions.
