WARNING

Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless,

colorless, poison gas.

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headache,

fatigue, dizziness, vomiting, confusion, seizures, nausea,

fainting or death.

• Operate water pump ONLY outdoors.

• Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows,

doors, ventilation intakes, or other openings.

• DO NOT start or run engine indoors or in an enclosed area, even if

windows and doors are open.

WARNING

Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric

shock.

When Adjusting or Making Repairs to Your Water Pump

• Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place the

wire where it cannot contact spark plug.

When Testing for Engine Spark

• Use approved spark plug tester.

• DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed.

WARNING

Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and

explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

When Adding or Draining Fuel

• Turn water pump OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before

removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.

• Fill or drain fuel tank outdoors.

• DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.

• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.

• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other

ignition sources.

• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

WARNING

Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

When Starting Equipment

• Ensure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap, and air cleaner are in place.

• DO NOT crank engine with spark plug removed.

When Operating Equipment

• DO NOT pump flammable liquids, such as fuel or fuel oils.

• This water pump is not for use in mobile equipment or marine

applications.

• DO NOT tip engine or equipment at angle which causes fuel to spill.

• Secure water pump. Forces produced by hoses may cause unit to

tip over.

When Transporting or Repairing Equipment

• Transport/repair with fuel tank EMPTY or with fuel shutoff valve OFF.

• Disconnect spark plug wire.

When Storing Fuel or Equipment with Fuel in Tank

• Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers, or

other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source because

they can ignite fuel vapors.

safety

WARNING

Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can

start fires around dry vegetation.

This unit may be equipped with a spark arrester to prevent discharge

of hot particles from the engine. The spark arrester may be a standard

or an optional part, depending on the engine type. In some areas, it is

illegal to operate an engine without a spark arrester. Check local, state,

and federal laws and regulations. A spark arrester is available from

authorized servicing dealers.

WARNING

Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in

bodily injury. Kickback will pull hand and arm toward

engine faster than you can let go.

Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could

result.

Keep hands and body clear from discharge of pump.

• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then

pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

• Secure discharge hose before starting engine to avoid hose from

whipping.

WARNING

Contact with muffler area can result in serious burns.

Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures

or damage fuel tank causing a fire.

• DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.

• Allow equipment to cool before touching.

• Keep at least 5 feet (1.5 m) of clearance on all sides of water

pump including overhead.

WARNING

Starter and other rotating parts can entangle hands,

hair, clothing, or accessories.

• NEVER place hands or body parts inside of running pump or hoses.

• Never operate water pump without protective housing or covers.

• DO NOT wear loose clothing or anything that may be caught in the

starter or other rotating parts.

• Tie up long hair and remove jewelry.

CAUTION

Excessively high operating speeds increase risk of injury and damage

to water pump.

Excessively low speeds impose a heavy load.

• DO NOT tamper with the govenor speed.

• DO NOT modify the water pump.

• DO NOT allow unqualified persons or children to operate or service

water pump.

NOTICE

Improper treatment of water pump can damage it and shorten its life.

• If you have questions about intended use, ask dealer or contact

nearest authorized dealer.

• Be sure pump chamber is filled with water before starting the engine.

NEVER RUN PUMP WITHOUT PRIMING.

• Use a non-collapsible hose on the suction side of the pump.

• Use water pump only for intended uses.

• Pumping sea water, beverages, acids, chemical solutions, or any other

liquid that promotes corrosion can damage the pump.

• Ensure all connections are air tight.

• DO NOT obstruct the suction or discharge hose in any way.

• NEVER operate pump without foot valve connected to end of

suction hose.

• NEVER allow vehicles to drive over hoses. If a hose must be

positioned across a roadway, use planking on each side of hose to

allow vehicles to pass over without obstructing or collapsing hose.

• Anchor pump to avoid equipment movement.

• Keep equipment away from edge of river or lake where it could cause

the bank to collapse.

• NEVER operate units with broken or missing parts, or without

protective housing or covers.

• DO NOT by-pass any safety device on this machine.

• NEVER move machine by pulling on hoses. Use frame on unit.

• Check fuel system for leaks or signs of deterioration, such as chafed

or spongy hose, loose or missing clamps, or damaged tank or cap.

Correct all defects before operating water pump.

What is “Suction Head”?

Suction Head is the vertical distance between the center of the pump

and the surface of the liquid on the suction side of the pump. May also be

referred to as “suction lift”. The atmospheric pressure of 14.7 PSI at sea

level limits suction head to be less than approximately 26 feet for

any pump.

Discharge Head is the vertical distance between the pump’s discharge

port and the point of discharge or is the liquid surface if the hose is

submerged or pumping into the bottom of a tank.

Total Head is the sum of the suction head value plus the discharge

head value.

As the water suction height increases, pump discharge height decreases.

The length, type, and size of the suction and discharge hoses can also

significantly affect pump output.

It is important for the suction height to be as short as possible. This will

decrease the priming time and improve pump performance by increasing

the discharge head.

Operating location

For best pump performance, locate the pump on a flat, level surface as

close as possible to the water to be pumped. Secure water pump to

avoid tipping over. Use hoses that are no longer than necessary.

IMPORTANT: Direct open end of discharge hose away from home,

electrical devices or anything not desired to get wet.

WARNING

Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in

bodily injury. Kickback will pull hand and arm toward

engine faster than you can let go.

Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could

result.

• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then

pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

• Immobilize the delivery pipe to prevent lashes.

19

WARNING

Contact with muffler area can result in serious burns.

Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures

or damage fuel tank causing a fire.

• DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.

• Allow equipment to cool before touching.

• Keep at least 5 feet (1.5 m) of clearance on all sides of water pump

including overhead.

Pump output is controlled by adjusting engine speed. Moving the engine

speed lever in the “Fast” direction will increase pump output, and moving

the engine speed lever in the “Slow” direction will decrease pump output.

Use the following shutdown instructions:

1. Turn engine switch to “OFF”.

2. After using the fire cart, wrap fire hose around hose holder, once the

engine is cold

3. Remove drain plug, flush pump with clean water, and then drain all

water from pump.
