Always use a strainer with the suction
hose. Gravel or debris sucked into the
pump will cause serious damage to the
impeller and the pump casting.
CAUTION
Do not refuel while smoking, near an open
flame or other such potential fire hazards.
Otherwise fire accident may occur.
WARNING
Be careful not to overtighten the bolts.
Suction flange tightening torque : 90-120 kg-cm
Delivery flange tightening torque : 90-120 kg-cm
CAUTION
PRE-OPERATION FOR STARTING
(See Fig. 2

2. CONNECT SUCTION HOSE
(See Fig. 2 2-w w)
Use a reinforced-wall or wire braided hose to
prevent suction collapse.
Since the pump self-priming time is directly
proportional to hose length, a short hose is
recommended.
1. ATTACH THE FLANGE AND CHECK
VALVES (See Fig. 2 2-q q)
Attach the suction flange, delivery flange and check
valves to the pump when operating the brand new
pump for the first time.

3. CONNECT DELIVERY HOSE
(See Fig. 2 2-e e)
When using a fabric hose, always use a hose band
to prevent the hose from disconnecting under high
pressure.
Select the viscosity based on the air temperature
at the time of operation as shown in the table.

5. CHECK FUEL (See Fig. 2 2-y y)
Before checking or refilling engine oil, be sure the
engine is located on stable, level surface and
stopped.
Do not screw the oil gauge into the oil filler neck
to check oil level. If the oil level is low, refill to the
upper level with the following recommended oil.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil of API
service class SE or higher grade (SG, SH or SJ
is recommended).
Stop the engine and open the cap.
Use automotive unleaded gasoline only.
This engine is certified to operate on automotive
unleaded gasoline.
Fuel Tank Capacity
Refer to “SPECIFICATIONS” Page 12 for fuel
tank capacity
Close the fuel cock before filling the fuel tank.
Do not fill above the top of the fuel filter screen
(marked
w), or the fuel may overflow when it
heats up later and expands.
When filling the fuel tank, always use the fuel
filter screen.
Wipe off any spilled fuel before starting the
engine. (See Fig. 2-u)
Never attempt to operate the pump
without priming water or the pump will
overheat. Extended dry operation will
destroy the mechanical seal.
If the unit has been operated dry, stop the
engine immediately and allow the pump to
cool before adding priming water.
WARNING
6. CHECK PRIMING WATER
(See Fig. 2 2-i i)
It is recommended that the water chamber of pump
casing should be primed with full of water before
operating.
