NOTE
Pump speed can be regulated with
the engine throttle control from full
volume, 65 strokes per minute, to
about 40 strokes per minute for
lesser volume. Smoothest operation
can be determined by trying to pump at several speeds. Limit
maximum speed to 65 strokes per minute of the diaphragm (2,800
RPM engine speed).
7. If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever
(Figure 14 ) to the “CLOSED” position. If the engine has not
started repeat steps 1 through 6.
