Preventing Water Hammer
Water hammer occurs when the discharge
flow is suddenly blocked or stopped.
Pressurized water trapped inside the pump
can crack the pump housing. To prevent water
hammer:
• Do not close the discharge valve while the
pump is operating.
• Do not allow vehicles to drive over the
discharge hose.
• Do not abruptly compress the discharge
hose.
Water Pump Shut Down
1. Move throttle lever from fast to slow.
2. Turn engine switch OFF.
3. Move fuel valve lever to OFF position.
4. Allow the engine to cool thoroughly.
