( Fig 9.)
CAUTION:
Do not run the pump without the water supply connected
and turned on.
Before starting the engine, connect all hoses and check all
fluids (oil and petrol). Turn the garden hose on then squeeze
the trigger. This relieves air pressure caused by turning on
the water. Hold the trigger until a steady stream of water
appears. This makes it easier to pull start the engine.
To start an engine that is cold or has run dry:
n
Close the fuel valve (4) before filling the fuel tank ().
n
Fill the fuel tank (if necessary).
n
Connect the garden hose to the pump and turn on the

Open the fuel valve.
n
Place the ON/OFF switch in the ON ( l ) position (3).
n
Push the choke lever to position A (CLOSED) (36).
NOTE:
If the engine is cold, close the choke fully. If the
engine is warm, open the choke lever half-way or keep it
opened fully.
n
Give the start recoil short, brisk pulls to start the
engine.
n
If the engine fires, or begins to sputter and/or cough
without catching, move the choke lever to the half-way
position.
NOTE:
Never pull the recoil starter more than four or five
times with the choke closed as this causes flooding.
n
With the choke in the half-way position, pull the recoil
starter again. The engine should now start.
NOTE: If the choke remains in the closed position, the
engine will continue to sputter and/or cough but will not
start.
n
As the engine warms up, move the choke lever slowly to
position
B (OPEN) (38).
n Return the recoil starter gently to the engine housing. Do
not allow the rope to snap back.

To stop the engine using the fuel valve:

impurities resulting in malfunctions.
