STOPPING PROCEDURE
1. Idle engine by pushing throttle lever down.
2. Move ON/OFF switch to OFF position.
3. Disconnect fuel caddie quick disconnect coupling, close cap and store fuel line.
4. Restart engine with water flowing through pump and allow to idle until it stops from lack of fuel.
5. Allow lines to drain. Disconnect hoses.
6. Without inlet and discharge caps in place, drain pump by tilting inlet end of pump downward. When pump is
drained, replace caps to prevent damage to threads.
RELAY PROCEDURE
For pumping water over long distances or up high vertical rises, it may be necessary to use several pumps in
series. When this is done, pressure (not exceeding 100 PSI) should be maintained at the inlet of the second and
subsequent pumps.
PREPARATION FOR STORAGE
WARNING: Prevent accidental starting by always removing spark plug or by disconnecting and
grounding spark plug wire before working on engine or pump.
NOTE: Replace the spark plug or wire only after all preparation is completed on both pump and engine.
1. Fuel System: If the unit is to be stored for any length of time, drain the fuel system by running until it stops as
instructed in “STOPPING PROCEDURE.”
2. Engine: See ENGINE MANUAL for storage instructions
3. Pump:
a. Follow the procedure under “Maintenance - Daily or Every 8 Hours” item 2, “Pump Inlet.”
b. Drain water from pump thoroughly. After the flow has ceased, pump should be turned over a few
revolutions so all water will drain from impeller.
c. While turning the pump over (using the starting handle), spray into the pump inlet and discharge
connections using either a white lithium or silicone type lubricant.
This treatment coats the inside of the pump and tends to prevent the clearance ring
and impeller hub from sticking due to corrosion.
d. Spray the threads of the inlet and discharge connections with either a while lithium or
silicone type lubricant.
CAUTION: Be careful not to touch the exterior of the engine, especially the muffler
and the surrounding area. The engine is hot enough to cause injury.
