Makita EW1OOR Preparations For Starting, Connect the suction hose, Connect the discharge hose

3.PREPARATIONS FOR STARTING

1.Connect the suction hose.

Use a reinforced-wall or wire braided hose to prevent suction collapse. Since the pump’s self-priming time is directly proportional to hose length, a short hose is recommended.

CAUTION][-

=Always use a strainer with the suc- tion hose. Gravel or debris sucked into the pump will cause serious damage to the impeller and the pump casing.

2.Connect the discharge hose.

When using a fabric hose, always use a hose band to prevent the hose from disconnecting under high pressure.

3.Check the fuel level.

If level is low, fill to the shoulder of the fuel filter.

Use the mixture fuel prepared by mixing gasoline and exclusive 2-cycle oil at a ratio of 20-25:1, or the 2-cycle fuel now available on the market.
