PERIODICAL INSPECTION
Pay your serious attention to keep the pump in good condition.
1. To store a fire pump properly:
・
Place it in a level place.
・
Keep it in a dry area. High humidity may cause corrosion in some parts of the
pump.
2. Keep the fire pump free of dust.
3. When you store the pump, keep the fuel in the fuel tank full.
4. Fill the governor case with 2-stroke oil to proper level.
5. Run and operate the pump at least once a month.
6. Check the battery condition once a month. Add distilled water if the battery liquid
level is lower than the specific level. And charge the battery.
If the battery is maintenance free battery, do not add any water. Just charge the
battery.
7. Before storing the pump for more than one month, drain the fuel from the carburetor
completely.
8. Replace the spark plug* when it is dirty or worn.
* No.: NGK B7HS … Gap 0.6~0.7 mm (0.02 ~ 0.03 in)
9. Replace the V-belt of the vacuum pump if the V-belt is cracked or worn.
10. Close the suction port with the cap to avoid a foreign material entering to the
pump.
