READ ENGINE MANUAL PRIOR TO STARTING THIS MACHINE.
Machine is shipped with NO OIL in engine.
Fill Engine with oil as suggested in Engine Manual.
1. You must prime pump before starting the engine. To do so, insert garden hose in Discharge Tube and fill
system to full. Full is when you see water in both suction hoses.
2. Fill engine up with 4-stroke motor oil as advised in the engine manual.
3. Install a U-1 300 Amp Battery into the battery box on the right side of the engine. Connect battery cables
and strap battery into place.
4. Make yourself familiar with engine controls located on the engine by reading the Engine Owner's Manual.
5. Once the pump is primed, battery installed, and the engine oil is filled you may hook the Typhoon up to
the Super Star Bunker Rake.
6. The Typhoon is equipped with a quick hitch attachment. Insert quick hitch bar into hitch on Super Star and
lock in place with lock pin.
7. There are 1/2" and 1" spacers on the castor wheels that can be arranged in any combination to achieve
the desired height. Please keep both side adjusted the same.
8. Transport the Typhoon to the water hole that needs to be siphoned. Back Typhoon to edge of water.
9. Using the rocker switch on the left side of the engine, lower the boom and suction screen into the water.
10. Stand clear of the discharge tube. Make sure the discharge tube is pointing in a direction that is free of
bystanders and buildings.
11. Start engine. There will be immediate water discharge from the discharge tube. There is a swivel tube that
allows you to turn the discharge in any direction you desire. There is also a turnbuckle that can be
lengthened to give a longer flow or shortened for a closer distance. For best performance keep hand on
discharge tube to prevent it from straying.
12. When water is siphoned, shut off engine, leaving water in the pump and discharge hose, so you do not run
the pump dry.
DO NOT RUN THE PUMP DRY!
