Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback) will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can let go.

Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.

Keep hands and body clear from discharge of pump.

•When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

•Secure discharge hose to avoid whipping.

WARNING

Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.

WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR WATER PUMP

•Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.

WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK

•Use approved spark plug tester.

•DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed.

WARNING

Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

WHEN ADDING OR DRAINING FUEL

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

•Fill or drain fuel tank outdoors.

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

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

•DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

WHEN STARTING EQUIPMENT

•Ensure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner are in place.

•DO NOT crank engine with spark plug removed.

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

WHEN OPERATING EQUIPMENT

•DO NOT pump flammable liquids, such as fuel or fuel oils.

•This water pump is not for use in mobile equipment or marine applications.

•DO NOT tip engine or equipment at angle which causes fuel to spill.

•Secure water pump. Loads from hoses may cause tipover.

•DO NOT stop engine by moving choke lever to “Choke” position.

WHEN TRANSPORTING OR REPAIRING EQUIPMENT

•Transport/repair with fuel tank EMPTY or with fuel shutoff valve OFF.

•Disconnect spark plug wire.

WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK

•Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers or other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source because they can ignite fuel vapors.
