happening, cover the QTAC if it is stored outside and in direct sunlight. Also, consider
using a UV inhibitor on the plastic and rubber parts after washing the system, such as
303 Aerospace UV Protectant.
Routine QTAC Maintenance
With the exception of the pump and pump engine, your QTAC requires no special
maintenance. For maintenance of the pump and pump engine, see the appropriate
manuals.
TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR QTAC
The Pump Engine Will Not Start
• Ensure that the engine switch is in the “ON” position.
• Ensure that the engine throttle is open slightly from the idle position.
• Adjust the choke. If the engine is cold, full choke will likely be needed.
• Ensure that fuel exists in the fuel tank, and the shut-off valve is on.
• For further troubleshooting information, see the Honda Owner’s Manual
The Pump Will Not Build Water Pressure
• Ensure that the pump engine is running and operating at a sufficient speed.
• Ensure that there is sufficient water in the water tank. There should be enough
water in the water tank so that the water level is visible in the water tank site
gauge (
Figure 1
)
• Unless the draft hose kit is in use, ensure that the Tank to Pump valve is open so
that the pump is drawing water from the water tank and not from the draft port
(
Figure 2
).
• Ensure that the pump drain port plug is properly tightened and sealed (
Figure 2
).
