CAUTION

ALWAYS wear approved eye and hearing protection before operating the pump.

CAUTION

NEVER operate the pump in a confined area or enclosed area structure that does not provide ample free flow of air.

Before Starting

1.Read safety instructions at the beginning of manual.

2.Clean the pump, removing dirt and dust, particularly the engine cooling air inlet, carburetor and air cleaner.

3.Check the air filter for dirt and dust. If air filter is dirty, replace air filter with a new one as required.

4.Check carburetor for external dirt and dust. Clean with dry compressed air.

5.Check fastening nuts and bolts for tightness.

Engine Oil Check

1.To check the engine oil level, place the pump on secure level ground with the engine stopped.

2.Remove the filler dipstick from the engine oil filler hole (See Figure 4) and wipe clean.

Figure 4. Engine Oil Dipstick (Removal)

3.Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick.

4.If the oil level is low (See Figure 5), fill to the edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil type (Table 5). Maximum oil capacity is 1.16 quarts (1.1 liters).

DANGER

Motor fuels are highly flammable and can be dangerous if mishandled. DO NOT smoke while refueling. DO NOT attempt to refuel the pump if the engine is hot or running.

Fuel Check

1.Remove the gasoline cap located on top of fuel tank.

2.Visually inspect to see if the fuel level is low. If fuel is low, replenish with unleaded fuel.

3.When refueling, be sure to use a strainer for filtration. DO NOT top-off fuel. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately!
