8.If charge lamp or LED remains lit, increase engine speed until lamp/LED goes off. When the charge indicator lamp/LED goes off, it can then be assumed that the charging system is working correctly.

9.If the charge lamp or LED remains on while the engine is running, refer to Table 12 (Engine Troubleshooting) or the Deutz Engine Repair Manual.

10.Move speed control lever to full speed position for maximum engine speed. (See Figure 12)

OPERATION

1.The pump should begin pumping water within a minute depending on the length of suction hose and height the pump is above water.

2.If pump does not begin to pump water after a few minutes, check for loose connections or air leaks in suction hose. Make sure there is water in the pump end and strainer is not clogged with debris, reference Table 11 (Pump Troubleshooting).

Longer suction hoses will require more time for the pump to begin pumping water.
