• Use a number 2 Phillips head screw driver. Before
trying to t the guide and deector, use one of
the screws to tap the threads in the black mufer
heat shield. The heat shield doesn’t come with the
holes pre-tapped, so it’s easier to tap the holes
prior to tting the mufer guide and deector.
NOTE: a certain amount of force will be needed
to tap the thread in the shield. Be careful that you
don’t apply too much force and end up bending
the heat shield;
Figure 4.2
• GX160 only: After the holes are tapped into heat
shield, place the mufer guide and deector onto
the shield in the correct position. Ensure it doesn’t
interfere with your application;
Figure 4.3
• When the correct position of the deector is found
you can then proceed to screw the screws in and
the procedure is completed.

4.3 Viton seal options
Available on selected models, identied by a
sticker (when tted), have been supplied with Viton
seals and elastomers. This is to provide the pump
with superior resistance to common agricultural
chemicals. These pumps should still be ushed out
with clean water after use.
ATTENTION: In the event of re
damage to the Viton elastomers
(rubber), consult your Davey dealer
regarding safe handling of burnt
Viton components. Burnt Viton emits
a dangerous acid, which can cause
serious health effects.
4.4 Fuel stop solenoid (Yanmar diesel)
Available on selected Yanmar diesel engines, the
option must be tted during product manufacture.
Controlled via a key switch, the solenoid starts and
stops the ow of fuel to the engine, to start and stop
the Fireghter pump. This allows the Fireghter
pump to be installed on a tray-back vehicle, with
the convenience of being controlled from inside the
cabin of the vehicle.
The switch has three positions:
• off (O);
• ignition (I); and
• crank (II).
In the ignition position, battery power is supplied
to the solenoid and the crank position starts the
engine. To stop the engine, turn the switch to the
off position.
4.5 Electric start options
Battery recommendations:
Brand Model Minimum size
Honda GX200 18 amp hour
Honda GX270 & GX390 30 amp hour
Yanmar L60AE & L70AE 24-36 amp hour
Yanmar L100AE 36-45 amp hour
Battery cables: should be of ample size to
accommodate the starting current of the engine and
discharge rates of the battery. Both cables should
be of the same cross-section size. Cables should be
of enough length to ensure engine vibrations are not
transferred to the battery terminals.
Installation: Honda and engines come with a
starter switch installed. The switch on a Yanmar
engine is not connected, but only requires to be
plugged into the 4-pin coupler located below the
starter on the engine.
• The eye connector should be connected to
earth (
);
• The green bullet end connector is to operate the
fuel shut off solenoid;
• There is a red bullet connector attached to a lead
which terminates at the fuel shut off solenoid,
just above the throttle. This red bullet connector
should be inserted into the green bullet end
connector and should not be attached to any
other terminal;
• The key switch should be mounted on a rm point,
free from engine vibration;
