Engine Shut-Down

1.Place speed control lever in the idle position and place the engine start/stop switch in the OFF position.

2.Close vandal cover on engine control box, and lock. Store pad lock key in a safe place, out of the reach of unauthorized persons.

CAUTION - Locking Engine Control Box

When the pump is not in use, close the vandal cover on the engine control box and lock. Locking the engine control box will prevent unauthorized personnel from starting the pump. Store key in a safe place.

CAUTION - Disconnecting Discharge Hose

If pumping in a positive head (pumping up hill), be sure to open discharge check valve drain and release pressure before uncoupling hose.

Pump Inspection After Use

It is recommended that the pump be inspected after use for damage or wear.

1.Drain and flush pump volute and priming system. Usually from suction end.

2.Inspect impeller for wear or damage and measure impeller clearance if it appears worn. Inspect interval should be about every 1000 hours.This inspection should be done when the pump is scheduled for maintenance inspection.

3.Inspect discharge check valve for wear or damage. Replace if necessary.

4.Inspect fuel tank and check for water by removing 0.5-inch drain plugs. Do not overtighten when replacing.

5.Check oil reservoirs for contamination or water.

6.Do dry vacuum test to check seal and check valve seal. This check should be done when the pump is scheduled for maintenance inspection.

OPERATION

Pump Storage

For storage of the pump for over 30 days, the following is required:

zDrain the fuel tank completely.

zRun the engine until the fuel in the injection system is completely consumed.

zCompletely drain used oil from the engine crankcase and fill with fresh clean oil, then follow the procedures described in the engine manual for engine storage.

zRemove the drain plug from the pump and drain out any water from left in the housing.

zRemove the pump cover and clean inside of pump housing. Coat inside of pump housing with a light film of oil to reduce corrosion. A spray can of oil works well for this application.

zCover suction and discharge ports with duct tape to prevent any foreign matter from falling into pump.

zCover pump and engine with plastic covering or equivalent and store in a clean, dry place.
