4. Once the pump is ush with the frame it’s time to bolt it together. Insert the
mounting bolt with a washer through the mounting tab bolt hole and tighten down
the bolts when you are absolutely positive that the mounting tabs are ush with the
engine or you can break a tab or damage the hollow shaft inside the pump.
5. Once the pump has been mounted to the engine make sure the on off switch is in
the off position and then slowly pull the pull start rope to ensure that the engine shaft
spins freely inside the pump. If it does not spin freely then the shaft key either slid up
the shaft and is binding or the pump isn’t ush to the engine and is binding because
it is tilted at an angle. Remove the pump and reinstall ensuring that each step is done
correctly.
