4.0 INSTALLATION
Install or position the pump to ensure that air flow around the
engine and pump is unobstructed.
4.1 Reservoir Breather Cap (See Figure 2)
For shipping purposes, a shipping plug (A) is installed in the breather
port on the top of the reservoir. Before using replace the shipping
plug with the breather cap (B). NOTE: The breather port (B) is
separate from the oil fill port (C). Oil fill port (C) uses a SAE #10 plug.

4.2 Pump Mounting
Refer to Figure 3 for mounting dimensions to secure the pump to
a fixed surface.

4.3 Fluid Level
Check the oil level of the pump prior to start-up, if necessary add
oil by removing the SAE #10 plug from the cover plate (see Fig. 2).
The reservoir is full when the oil level reaches the top of the sight
glass. (Fig. 4).
Figure 4
IMPORTANT:
Add oil only when all system components are fully
retracted, or the system will contain more oil than the reservoir
can hold.
4.4 Hydraulic Connections
Apply 1-1⁄2 wraps of Teflon tape
or other suitable sealant to the
hydraulic hose fitting, leaving the
first complete thread free of tape
or sealant as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5
Thread hose(s) into outlet port(s) of the valve (see valve body for
port identification).
Extend hose to valve port “A”
Retract hose to valve port “B” (if applicable).
Gauge to valve port “GA, GB, or GP”.
(“GA” measures “A” port pressure, “GB” measures “B” port pressure,
“GP measures pump pressure down stream of system check).
4.5 Battery Cable Conection (ZG6 model only)
The negative battery cable is disconnected before shippping for
safety reasons. Insert cable over battery terminal and secure by
tightening screw.
5.0 OPERATION
1.
Check gas and engine oil level. See engine Owner’s manual
for instructions and recommended fluids.
2. Check all system fittings and connections to be sure they are
tight and leak free.
3.
Make sure the shipping plug has been removed and the
breather cap is installed. (See section 4.1)
4.
Place manual control valve in the Neutral position.
5.
Start engine following procedure in engine Owner’s Manual.
NOTE:
ZG6 model is equipped with electric start. Insert key
supplied with pump into key slot on the control panel.
a. Push the throttle above the top detent position, which is
the choke position. The detent in the top position is the
fast throttle, and above this position is the engine choke
position.
b. Turn key to the right until engine starts.
c. Lower the throttle down to the detent position for
maximum performance. The throttle may be lowered
below the detent for idle. (See Figure 6.)
