9.7.5 Cautions for assembling
Observe the following cautions for handling.
• Do not use gasoline or solvents.
1) gasoline 2) ester 3) benzol 4) battery fluid
5) liquids at 70°C or greater or engine oil
• Never run when there is no water in the bilge.
Check to be sure that the strainer is in the
water before turning on the switch.
• Keep the cord terminal away from the water.
Water inside the motor or switch may lead to
damage. When the insulation around the
cord is damaged, water can seep in to the
wires; thus, care should be taken not to
scratch or nick the cord.
• When the pump has not been used for a long
period of time, the inside of the pump will be
dry and it may not operate properly at first. If
after 10 seconds the pump is not working,
turn off the switch and prime the pump before
trying again.
(Never run the pump dry for period of greater
than 10 seconds.)
• Replace the diesel engine oil only after the
engine has been stopped for a period of 30
minutes (oil temp. 20-70°C). Whenever
possible refrain from operation when the oil
temperature is below 15°C or above 50°C.
• Bilge water left in the hose or inside the
pump can freeze, and care should be taken
to see that any excess bilge is completely
discharged. If bilge water should freeze, and
care should be taken to see that any excess
bilge is completely discharged. If bilge water
should freeze inside the hose or pump, it
should be completely melted before starting
up the pump. When the temperature inside
the pump is low, it will take a longer time for
the pump to operate. (0°C, 5-10 seconds.)
• Keep the pump in a dry place away from rain
or other water.
• Use the regulation hose; do no use thin vinyl
hose or hose which is not heat-resistant.
• The pump cannot be used to drain off
rainwater or large quantities of flood water.
This pump can be operated continuously for
a period of 10 minutes.
