Safety Instructions This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death. To reduce the risk of injury, user must read all safety, pre-operating and operating instructions before using the product.
Safety Instructions (continued) WARNING! Rapid recoil of starter cord (kickback) may pull hand and arm forward toward engine at a rapid rate. Broken bones, bruises, sprains, and fractures may result. When starting engine, pull cord slowly until tension is felt, then pull rapidly to avoid kickback WARNING! Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Safety Instructions (continued) WARNING! While engine is running temperature may exceed 150°F (65°C). Severe burns may occur. Exhaust heat/gasses can ignite combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire. • Do NOT touch hot surfaces and do avoid exhaust gasses. • Allow water pump to cool before touching. • Keep at least 6 ft. (183cm) clearance on all sides of water pump including overhead clear. • Reflective exhaust heat may damage fuel tank causing fire.
Controls and Features LEGEND Throttle Valve Lever Choke Lever Fuel Cock Recoil Starting Handle Frame Engine Switch Dipstick Intake Pipe Outlet Pump Muffler Spark Plug Air Cleaner Fuel Filler Cap Controls engine speed. Before starting cold engine, rotate the choke lever to the left until resistance is felt. After starting the water pump, rotate the choke lever to the right to disengage. Do NOT choke a warm engine when starting. Turn to “OFF” position to terminate fuel delivery to engine.
Pre-Operating Instructions: Connecting Water Inlet Hose Use commercially available hose, hose joint, and clamp. The water inlet hose must be of continuous structure and be rigid. The length of the hose should be no more than required. The effect of suction is greatest at shorter distances from the water surface. Suction time varies with the length of the water inlet hose. The strainer matching with the water pump should be mounted to the end of the water inlet hose with a hose clamp.
Pre-Operating Instructions: Connecting Water Outlet Hose Use commercially available hose, hose joint, and clamp. A short hose with a big diameter will provide the best performance. A long hose with a small diameter will increase flowing resistance and decrease the power output of the water pump. Always Use Commerical Grade and Proper Size Hoses for Your Pump NOTE: Tighten the hose clamp to keep from disengaging during operation under high pressure.
Pre-Operating Instructions: Engine Oil Level Check NOTICE: • • • o Running engine with insufficient engine oil can cause severe damage to the engine. The engine performance and service life is directly dependent of the quality of the engine oil. Do NOT use contaminated engine oil or vegetable oil Check engine oil level only with the engine stalled and with unit on level ground. Use 4-stroke gasoline engine oil equivalent in quality with SF, SG from API.
Pre-Operating Instructions: Engine Fuel Level Check WARNING: • Gasoline is extremely flammable. Keep away from ignition sources. • Fuel unit only in well-ventilated areas with the engine stalled. • Do NOT smoke near unit. • Do NOT spill fuel out of the fuel tank. Spilled gasoline and gasoline vapor may ignite. If gasoline is spilled, wipe completely dry before starting the engine. • Avoid repeated or sustained breathing of gasoline fumes. • Avoid skin contact with gasoline.
Pre-Operating Instructions: Air Cleaner Element Check NOTICE: • Do NOT run the engine without air cleaner element installed. Operation of engine without air cleaner element installed will result in the inhalation of dirt, dust and other debris into the engine and through the carburetor. This will result in premature wear of the engine. NOTICE: To Check Air Cleaner Element: 1.
Pre-Operating Instructions: Air Cleaner Element Check PRIME PUMP BEFORE USE! NOTICE: • Do NOT run engine without water inside the pump. Operation of engine without water inside the pump will cause the pump to overheat. Prolonged operation of engine without water inside the pump will damage the pump gasket and impeller. • If water within the pump is not full, shut off the engine at once and fill the pump after allowing the unit to cool. To Check Pump Water: 1. Remove water filler cap. 2.
Operation of Water Pump Water Pump Use Location: DANGER! Running water pump gives off carbon monoxide gas. It is odorless, colorless, and highly toxic. Breathing carbon monoxide gas will result in serious injury or death. • Only operate water pump outdoors. • Prevent exhaust gas from entering, through windows doors or ventilation intakes, any confined areas. • DO NOT operate water pump inside any enclosed or roofed areas.
Operation of Water Pump (continued) Starting the Engine: Refer to the Controls and Features section for additional diagrams and definitions. 1. PRIME THE PUMP. 2. Move the fuel cock to the “ON” position. 3. To start a cold engine, refer to instruction in the Controls and Features section – “2. Choke lever”. To restart a warm engine, leave the choke level in the “OPEN” position. 4. Move the throttle valve lever away from the “LOWER” position, about 1/3 of the way toward the “UPPER” position. 5.
Operation of Water Pump (continued) Your Semi-Trash or Trash Pump is manufactured to accept solids and debris up to ½ the size of the inlet and outlet diameters (i.e. a 3” pump will accept up to 1.5” solids and debris to move through the pump and grind it to exit through the outlet). Your pump has a removable front cover with clevises or T-bolts to remove the front cover to allow you to clean the pump housing should the debris clog your pump.
Transporting and Storing the Unit WARNING: • To avoid fire, allow water pump to cool down for at least twenty minutes before transporting or storing the unit. • Always transport and store the unit with the fuel cock in the “OFF” position. • Always keep unit in horizontal, LEVEL position to the ground to prevent fuel from spilling. Spilled gasoline and gasoline vapor may ignite. • Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive.

Maintenance (continued) FUEL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE (continued): (See diagram below) and either clean or replace the fuel filter element. Re-assemble the fuel filter element (refer to “Fuel Filter Element Assembly” diagram below). USAGE IN HIGH ALTITUDE REGIONS: In regions with high altitude, the standard carburetor produces overly dense combinations of fuel and air, which result in decreased engine performance and increased fuel consumption.
Troubleshooting IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START: 1. Check the ensure switches are in the “ON” position. 2. Check engine oil level. The unit possesses a low oil shutdown feature that will not allow your engine to start if the oil is below safe operating levels. This feature is installed to increase the lie of your engine and prevent engine damage. If oil level is low, fill to the full mark on dipstick. Refer to the Pre-Operating Instructions: Engine Oil Check section for exact oil type and amounts. 3.
Water Pump Safety 1. Never pump gasoline or other flammable liquids. 2. The dealer or customer helpline (1-877-684-8912) can instruct you on intended uses. 3.
