WARNING

Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

WHEN ADDING FUEL

•Turn water transfer pump OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.

•Fill fuel tank outdoors.

•DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.

•If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.

•Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.

•DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

1.Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

2.Slowly add regular unleaded fuel to fuel tank. Fill to red level indicator (A). Be careful not to overfill.

A

3.Install fuel cap and let any spilled fuel evaporate before starting engine.

High Altitude

At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum

85 octane / 85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline is acceptable. To remain emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is required. Operation without this adjustment will cause decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and increased emissions. See an Authorized Briggs & Stratton dealer for high altitude adjustment information. Operation of the engine at altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters) with the high altitude kit is not recommended.

Attach Suction Hose

You will need the following tool to install the hoses to the water pump:

•1/4" or 6mm standard screwdriver

Connect Suction Hose to Pump

Use a commercially available hose. The suction hose must be reinforced with a non-collapsible wall or braided material. DO NOT use a hose with an inside diameter smaller than the pumps suction port size.

1.Slide barb cuff (B) over hose barb (C). Insert rubber seal (D) into end of barb cuff.
