engine driven pumps. Refer to
the manual accompanying the engine
before attempting to begin operation.
Because pump installations are seldom
identical, this manual cannot possibly
provide detailed instructions and pre
cautions for each specific application.
Therefore, it is the owner/installer's re
sponsibility to ensure that applications
not addressed in this manual are per
formed only after establishing that nei

are compromised by the installation.
Before attempting to open or service the
pump:
1. Familiarize yourself with this man

and the pump or components will not be
damaged when lifting. Suction and dis

moved from the pump before lifting. Lift
the pump or component only as high as
necessary and keep personnel away
from suspended objects.
