minutes. If the pump was used for pumping salt water, be sure to use
fresh water when flushing it.

5.17.4 Thoroughly clean the exterior of the pump and engine. Visually inspect
the machine for signs of damage or loose bolts.

interior surfaces with a rust-inhibiting oil.

tape.
5.17.8 Remove the battery from the machine and store it in a clean dry area.
