5. Check that hoses are securely attached to pump.
Suction hose (b) must not have any air leaks. Tighten
hose clamps (c) and couplings (d).
Check that discharge hose (e) is not restricted. Lay
hose out as straight as possible. Remove any twists
or sharp bends from hose which may block the flow of
water.
6. Make sure suction strainer (f) is clean and securely
attached to end of hose. The strainer is designed to
protect the pump by preventing large objects from
being pulled into the pump.
CAUTION: Strainer should be positioned so it will
remain completely under water. Running the pump
with the strainer above water for long periods can
damage the pump.
7. Check fuel level, engine oil level, and condition of air
cleaner.
1.12 Before Starting
1. Read safety instructions at the beginning of manual.
2. Place pump as near to water as possible, on a firm,
flat, level surface.
3. To prime pump, remove prime plug
(a) and fill pump
case with water. If the pump case is not filled with
water before starting, it will not begin pumping.
DO NOT open priming plug or loosen hose fittings if
pump is hot! Water or vapor inside pump may be
under pressure.
4. Check for leaks between pump and engine. If water is
leaking, the seal inside pump is worn or damaged.
Continued operation may cause water damage to
engine.
