Hale Fyr Port - Manual (Page 10)

PREPARATION
INSPECTION OF NEW UNIT:
When unpacking unit do not discard cushioning materials, carton, or case until
you are certain everything is correct. Inspect carefully; perfect condition of the outside
shipping container does not guarantee undamaged contents. Check for loose,
missing, or damaged parts. Also, check the packing slip for any additional parts.
After inspection proves satisfactory discard all shipping material in a proper
manner.
ATTENTION: The FYR PORT has been shipped with the engine,
carburetor, air filter and fuel systems drained and tagged. Before using, fill
with proper quantities and grades of fuel and oil, refer to “Fuel and
Lubricant Specifications,” page 9. The idle speed, idle and main fuel
mixture adjustment screws have been factory set. However, the idle and
main fuel mixture adjustment screws may require readjustment, especially
for cold weather or high altitudes (see engine manual for adjustment
procedure).
IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLS:
(See plate numbers 534B, 1 of 2 and 2 of 2, in Parts section for location of
controls).
EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS:
Air Cleaner: Low restriction cleanable expanded aluminum foil type element.
Carburetor Fuel Strainer: Provides secondary fuel filtering for engine.
Carrying Handle: This is incorporated into the pump head.
Choke: Reduces the amount of air entering the engine to correct the fuel-air ratio for
cold start-up.
Discharge Hose Connection: Located on the air cleaner side of the unit for
connecting a 1 1/2" NST or ISO hose fitting.
Exhaust Muffler: This is a spark arrester type that also reduces the amount of
combustion noise emitted by the engine.
Flexible Transparent Hose: Is connected between the nozzle plate and the overspeed
switch control. This allows for visual inspection of dirt and water which may clog hose
and reduce amount of pressure reaching switch. Check regularly, and be sure hose is
not cracked, crimped, or kinked.
Ignition Toggle Switch: When flipped to the ‘’ON’’ position opens circuit to ground
allowing the magneto to develop a spark for the ignition of combustion. Flipped to the
‘’OFF position closes the circuit to ground magneto.
