caution:

Do not run the pump without the water supply connected and turned on.

Before starting the engine, connect all hoses and check all fluids (oil and gas). Turn the garden hose on then squeeze the trigger. This relieves air pressure caused by turning on the water. Hold the trigger until a steady stream of water appears.

To start an engine that is cold or has run dry:

nClose the fuel valve.

nFill the fuel tank (if necessary).

nConnect the garden hose to the pump and turn on the water supply.

nOpen the fuel valve.

nPlace the ON/OFF switch in the ON ( l ).

nPush the choke lever to position A (closed).

NOTE: If the engine is cold, close the choke fully. If the engine is warm, open the choke lever half-way or keep it opened fully.

Give the recoil starter short, brisk pulls to start the engine.

If the engine fires, or begins to sputter and/or cough without catching, move the choke lever to the half-way position.

NOTE: Never pull the recoil starter more than four or five times with the choke closed as this causes flooding.

With the choke in the half-way position, pull the recoil starter again. The engine should now start.

NOTE:  If the choke remains in the closed position, the engine will continue to sputter and/or cough but will not start.

As the engine warms up, move the choke lever slowly to position B (OPEN).

Return the recoil starter gently to the engine housing. Do not allow the rope to snap back.

Let the engine warm up a few minutes before using.

To stop the engine using the ON/OFF switch:

nTurn the ON/OFF switch to off ( O ).

nClose the fuel valve.
