Wear the proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSI Z87.1 compliant safety goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use a dust mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hard-hat, gloves, dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the work area. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Gasoline fuel and fumes are flammable, and potentially explosive. Use proper fuel storage and handling procedures. Do not store fuel or other flammable materials nearby. Have multiple ABC class fire extinguishers nearby. Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can start fires around dry vegetation. A spark arrestor may be required. The operator should contact local fire agencies for laws or regulations relating to fire prevention requirements. Set up and use only on a flat, level, well-ventilated surface. Use only lubricants and fuel recommended in the Specifications chart of this manual. Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the product will operate properly and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never operate the product with a damaged part. Do not touch Pump engine during use. Engine can produce high noise levels. Prolonged exposure to noise levels above 85 dBA is hazardous to hearing. Always wear ear protection when operating or working around the gas engine while it is operating. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. Caution is necessary when near the engine’s magneto or recoil starter. Parts, especially exhaust system components, get very hot during use. Stay clear of hot parts Do not cover the engine or equipment during operation. Use the equipment, accessories, etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of equipment, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the equipment for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. Do not operate the equipment with known leaks in the engine’s fuel system. This product contains or, when used, produces a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.) When spills of fuel or oil occur, they must be cleaned up immediately. Dispose of fluids and cleaning materials as per any local, state, or federal codes and regulations. Store oil rags in a bottom-ventilated, covered, metal container. Before use, check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the equipment’s operation. If damaged, have the equipment serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained equipment. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts. Do not reach over or across equipment while operating. Keep all safety guards in place and in proper working order. Safety guards include muffler, air cleaner, mechanical guards, and heat shields, among other guards. 2 DIAGRAM WARNING! High Altitude Operation Above 3000 feet At high altitudes, the engine’s carburetor, governor (if so equipped), and any other parts that control the fuel-air ratio will need to be adjusted by a qualified mechanic to allow efficient high-altitude use and to prevent damage to the engine and any other devices used with this product. The fuel system on this engine may be influenced by operation at higher altitudes. Proper operation can be ensured by installing an altitude kit at altitudes higher than 3000 ft. above sea level. At elevations above 8000 ft, the engine may experience decreased performance, even with the proper main jet. Operating this engine without the proper altitude kit installed may increase the engine’s emissions and decrease fuel economy and performance. The kit should be installed by a qualified mechanic.

NOTICE: Use only a non-collapsible intake hose. 2. Slide the Intake Strainer into the end of the intake hose. Tighten until secure. 3. Thread discharge hose onto Discharge Port. Tighten until secure. 4 OPERATION PRE-OPERATION CHECK 1. Remove the plug. 2. Fill with water. 3. Install the plug. STARTING THE ENGINE 1. Use the mixture of gasoline 2. Close the chock, if the 3.

LOCATING THE WATER PUMP 1. For best Pump performance, place the Pump near the water level and use hoses that are no longer than necessary. As the head (pumping height) increases, pump output decreases. A non-collapsible suction hose must be used. The length, type, and size of the suction and discharge hoses can significantly affect Pump output. Discharge head capability is always greater than suction head capability. This means pumping height for the Intake Hose (suction head) should be shorter than the pumping height for the Discharge Hose. Minimizing suction head (placing the Pump closer to the water level) will also help make it easier to prime the pump (fill it with water). 5 OPERATION 2. Route the Intake Hose with the Intake Strainer fully immersed in the water supply source. 3. Install the plug. 3. Place Strainer into water to be pumped. NOTICE: Immerse strainer fully in water. Do not operate Pump without Strainer connected to end of suction hose. Keep Strainer out of sand or silt by placing Strainer in a bucket or on stones. NOTICE: Air leaks must not appear in the suction line. If there is an air leak in the suction line, you will not be able to prime the pump. Use a thread sealant to seal air leaks. 4. Secure the Intake Hose in place to keep it from moving once the Pump is turned on. The Intake Hose should be as short as possible for more efficient operation. 5. Route the discharge hose to the desired discharge location. If necessary, connect additional discharge hoses to direct the discharge to the desired location. Make sure to secure the discharge hose in place to keep it from moving once the Water Pump is turned on. The discharge hose should be kept as short as possible for more efficient operation. STARTING THE ENGINE 1. When the engine has warmed sufficiently, adjust the throttle handle in accordance to the desired speed. DO NOT accelerate abruptly due to bad lubrication of the engine at the beginning of start up.
