IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

The pumps except 80WB30-4.5Q are designed to pump only water that is not
intended for human consumption, and other uses can result in injury to the
operator or damage to the pump and other property.

3
Always make a pre-operation inspection before you start the engine. You may
prevent an accident or equipment damage.

Most accidents can be prevented if you follow all instructions in this manual and
on the pump. The most common hazards are discussed below, along with the
best way to protect yourself and others.
Operator Responsibility
It is the operator’s responsibility to provide the necessary safeguards to protect
people and property. Know how to stop the pump quickly in case of emergency. If
you leave the pump for any reason, always turn the engine off. Understand the
use of all controls and connections.

Be sure that anyone who operates the pump receives proper instruction. Do not
let children operate the pump. Keep children and pets away from the area of
operation.
Pump Operation
Pump only water that is not intended for human consumption. Pumping
flammable liquids, such as gasoline or fuel oils, can result in a fire or explosion,
causing serious injury. Pumping sea water, beverages, acids, chemical solutions,
or any other liquid that promotes corrosion can damage the pump.
Refuel With Care
Gasoline is extremely flammable, and gasoline vapor can explode. Refuel
outdoors, in a well-ventilated area, with the engine stopped and the pump on a
level surface. Do not fill the fuel tank above the fuel strainer shoulder. Never
smoke near gasoline, and keep other flames and sparks away. Always store
gasoline in an approved container. Make sure that any spilled fuel has been
wiped up before starting the engine. After refueling, make sure the tank cap
closed properly and securely.
Hot Exhaust
The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while after
stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot. Let the
engine cool before transporting the pump or storing it indoors.

To prevent fire hazards, keep the pump at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from
building walls and other equipment during operation. Do not place flammable
objects close to the engine.

4. CHECK BEFORE OPERATION

Be sure of what you are pumping. This pump is designed to pump only fresh
water that is not intended for human consumption.

For your safety, and to maximize the service life of your equipment, it is very
important to take a few moments before you operate the pump to check its
condition. Be sure to take care of any problem you find, or have your servicing
dealer correct it, before you operate the pump.

Improperly maintaining this pump, or failing to correct a

problem before operation, could cause a malfunction in
which you could be seriously injured.
Always perform a preoperation inspection before each operation, and
correct any problem.

Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide. Avoid inhalation of exhaust

gas. Never run the engine in a closed garage or confined area.

To prevent fire hazards, keep the pump at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from
building walls and other equipment during operation. Do not place flammable
objects close to the engine.

Before beginning your preoperation checks, be sure the pump is on a level

surface and the ignition switch is in the OFF position.

Check the General Condition of the Pump

Look around and underneath the pump for signs of oil or gasoline leaks.

Remove any excessive dirt or debris, especially around the engine muffler, and
recoil starter.

Look for signs of damage.

Check that all nuts, bolts, screws, hose connectors and clamps are tightened.

Check the Suction and Discharge Hoses

Check the general condition of the hoses. Be sure the hoses are in serviceable
condition before connecting them to the pump. Remember that the suction hose
must be reinforced construction to prevent hose collapse.

Check that the sealing washer in the suction hose connector is in good condition
(see page 13).

8
Check that the hose connectors and clamps are securely installed (see pages 13
& 14).

Check that the strainer is in good condition and is installed on the suction hose
(see page 13).

CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL

Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level position.

1. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.

2. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler neck. Check
the oil level shown on the dipstick.

3. If the oil level is low, fill to the edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended
oil (see page 21).

4. Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.

Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged

air filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid
engine wear. This type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor’s Limited Warranty.

CHECK FUEL LEVEL

With the engine stopped and on a level surface, remove the fuel tank cap and
check the fuel level. Refill the tank if the fuel level is low. After refueling, tighten
the fuel tank cap securely.

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You can be

burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.
·Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
·Handle fuel only outdoors.
·Wipe up spills immediately.

10
 MAXIMUM FUEL LEVEL

Do not fill above the shoulder of the fuel strainer (maximum

fuel level).

FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS

Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher.

These engines are certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline

produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust system life.

Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid

getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Occasionally you may hear a light ‘‘spark knock’’ or ‘‘pinging’’ (metallic rapping
noise) while operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern.

If spark knock or pinging occurs at a steady engine speed, under normal load,
change brands of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists, see an authorized
servicing dealer.

Running the engine with persistent spark knock or pinging

can cause engine damage.
Running the engine with persistent spark knock or pinging is misuse, and
the Distributor’s Limited Warranty does not cover parts damaged by
misuse.

5. OPERATION

SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

To safely realize the full potential of this pump, you need a complete
understanding of its operation and a certain amount of practice with its controls.

Before operating the pump for the first time, please review the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INFORMATION on page 3 and the chapter titled CHECK BEFORE
OPERATION.

For your safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an enclosed area, such
as a garage. Your engine’s exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas
which can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause illness or death.

Pump only fresh water that is not intended for human consumption. Pumping
flammable liquids, such as gasoline or fuel oils, can result in a fire or explosion,
causing serious injury. Pumping sea water, beverages, acids, chemical solutions,
or any other liquid that promotes corrosion can damage the pump.

PUMP PLACEMENT

For best pump performance, place the pump near the water level, and use hoses
that are no longer than necessary. That will enable the pump to produce the
greatest output with the least self-priming time.
As head (pumping height) increases, pump output decreases. The length, type,
and size of the suction and discharge hoses can also significantly affect pump
output.
Discharge head capability is always greater than suction head capability, so it is
important for suction head to be the shorter part of total head.
Minimizing suction head (placing the pump near the water level) is also very
important for reducing self-priming time. Self-priming time is the time that takes
the pump to bring water the distance of the suction head during initial operation.

SUCTION HOSE INSTALLATION

Use a commercially available hose and hose connector with the hose clamp
provided with the pump. The suction hose must be reinforced with a
non-collapsible wall or braided wire construction.

Do not use a hose smaller than the pump’s suction port size. Minimum hose size:
50ZB23-3.1Q(A)/50ZB60-4.5Q = 2 in (50 mm) 100ZB30-5.5Q = 4 in (100 mm)
80ZB20-3.1Q(A)/80WB30-4.5Q = 3 in (80 mm)

The suction hose should be no longer than necessary. Pump performance is best
when the pump is near the water level, and the hoses are short.

Use a hose clamp to securely fasten the hose connector to the suction hose in
order to prevent air leakage and loss of suction. Verify that the hose connector
sealing washer is in good condition.

Install the strainer (provided with the pump) on the other end of the suction hose,
and secure it with a hose clamp. The strainer will help to prevent the pump from
becoming clogged or damaged by debris.

Securely tighten the hose connector on the pump suction port.

chart may be used when the average temperature in your area is within the
recommended range.

21
 SAE Viscosity Grades

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

The SAE oil viscosity and service classification are in the API label on the oil
container. We recommend that you use API SERVICE category SJ oil.

The recommended operating range of this pump is 23 °F to 104 °F ( －5 °C to 40

°C).

AIR FILTER CLEANING

A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine performance.
If you operate the pump in very dusty areas, clean the air filter more frequently
than specified in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE (see page 19).

1. Clean the air filter in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry it thoroughly. Or clean
in nonflammable solvent and dry it thoroughly.

2. Dip the air filter in clean engine oil, and then squeeze out all excess oil. The
engine will smoke when started if too much oil is left in the foam.

3. Wipe dirt from the air cleaner base and cover, using a moist rag. Be careful to
prevent dirt from entering the air duct that leads to the carburetor.

SPARK PLUG SERVICE

Recommended spark plug: F7RTC or other equivalents.

Incorrect spark plugs can cause engine damage.

1. Disconnect the spark plug cap, and remove any dirt from around the spark
plug area.

A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine.

Over tightening the spark plug can damage the threads in
the cylinder head.

7. Attach the spark plug cap.

SPARK ARRESTER SERVICE (optional equipment)

Your engine is not factory-equipped with a spark arrester. In some areas, it is

illegal to operate an engine without a spark arrester. Check local laws and
regulations. A spark arrester is available from authorized servicing dealers.

The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to keep it functioning as
designed.

If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot. Allow the muffler to
cool before servicing the spark arrester.

9. STORAGE/ TRANSPORTING
STORAGE PREPARATION

Proper storage preparation is essential for keeping your pump troublefree and
looking good. The following steps will help to keep rust and corrosion from
impairing your pump’s function and appearance, and will make the engine easier
to start when you use the pump again.

Cleaning

1. Wash the engine and pump.

Wash the engine by hand, and be careful to prevent water from entering the
air cleaner or muffler opening. Keep water away from controls and all other
places that are difficult to dry, as water promotes rust.

·Using a garden hose or pressure washing equipment can force water

into the air cleaner or muffler opening. Water in the air cleaner will
soak the air filter, and water that passes through the air filter or muffler
can enter the cylinder, causing damage.
·Water contacting a hot engine can cause damage. If the engine has
been running, allow it to cool for at least half an hour before washing.

2. Wipe dry all accessible surfaces.

3. Fill the pump chamber with clean, fresh water, start the engine outdoors, and
let it run until it reaches normal operating temperature to evaporate any
external water.

Dry operation will damage the pump seal. Be sure the pump
chamber is filled with water before starting the engine.

4. Stop the engine, and allow it to cool.

5. Remove the pump drain plug, and flush the

pump with clean, fresh water. Allow the
water to drain from the pump chamber, and
then reinstall the drain plug.

6. After the pump is clean and dry, touch up any

damaged paint, and coat areas that may rust PUMP DRAIN PLUG
with a light film of oil. Lubricate controls with
a silicone spray lubricant.

25
Fuel

Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Old gasoline will cause hard
starting, and it leaves gum deposits that clog the fuel system. If the gasoline in
your engine deteriorates during storage, you may need to have the carburetor
and other fuel system components serviced or replaced.

The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank and carburetor
without causing functional problems will vary with such factors as gasoline blend,
your storage temperatures, and whether the fuel tank is partially or completely
filled. The air in a partially filled fuel tank promotes fuel deterioration. Very warm
storage/temperatures accelerate fuel deterioration. Fuel deterioration problems
may occur within a few months, or even less if the gasoline was not fresh when
you filled the fuel tank.

The Distributor’s Limited Warranty does not cover fuel system damage or engine
performance problems resulting from neglected storage preparation.

You can extend fuel storage life by adding a fuel stabilizer that is formulated for
that purpose, or you can avoid fuel deterioration problems by draining the fuel
tank and carburetor.

Adding a Fuel Stabilizer to Extend Fuel Storage Life

When adding a fuel stabilizer, fill the fuel tank with fresh gasoline. If only partially
filled, air in the tank will promote fuel deterioration during storage. If you keep a
container of gasoline for refueling, be sure that it contains only fresh gasoline.

1. Add fuel stabilizer following the manufacturer’s instructions.

2. After adding a fuel stabilizer, run the engine outdoors for 10 minutes to be sure
that treated gasoline has replaced the untreated gasoline in the carburetor.

Dry operation will damage the pump seal. Be sure the pump
chamber is filled with water before starting the engine.

3. Stop the engine, and move the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.

Draining the Fuel Tank and Carburetor

1. Place an approved gasoline container below the carburetor, and use a funnel
to avoid spilling fuel.

sediment cup. Tighten them securely.

STORAGE PR PROCEDURE

1. Change the engine oil (see page 21).

2. Remove the spark plug (see page 22).

3. Pour a tablespoon (5－10 cc) of clean engine oil into the cylinder.

4. Pull the starter grip several times to distribute the oil in the cylinder.

5. Reinstall the spark plug and attach the spark plug cap.

6. Pull the recoil starter grip slowly until resistance is felt. This will close the
valves so moisture cannot enter the engine cylinder. Return the recoil starter
grip gently.

STORAGE PRECAUTIONS

If your pump will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and carburetor, it is
important to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapor ignition. Select a well-ventilated
storage area away from any appliance that operates with a flame, such as a
furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer. Also avoid any area with a
spark-producing electric motor, or where power tools are operated.

If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that promotes rust
and corrosion.

Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the fuel valve lever in
the OFF position to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.

Place the pump on a level surface. Tilting can cause fuel or oil leakage.

With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the pump to keep out dust. A hot
engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some materials. Do not use sheet
plastic as a dust cover. A nonporous cover will trap moisture around the pump,
promoting rust and corrosion.

REMOVAL FROM STORAGE

Check your pump as described in the CHECK BEFORE OPERATION chapter of

this manual.

If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with fresh gasoline.
If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be sure that it contains only fresh
gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.

If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the engine may
smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.

TRANSPORTING

If the pump has been running, allow the engine to cool for at least 15 minutes
before loading the pump on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust
system can burn you and can ignite some materials.

Keep the pump level when transporting to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
Move the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.

12. TECHNICAL & CONSUMER INFORMATION
Carburetor Modification for High Altitude Operation

At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too rich.
Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. A very rich
mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting. Operation at an
altitude that differs from that at which this engine was certified, for extended
periods of time, may increase emissions.

High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to the

carburetor. If you always operate your pump at altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,500
meters), have your servicing dealer perform this carburetor modification. This
engine, when operated at high altitude with the carburetor modifications for high
altitude use, will meet each emission standard throughout its useful life.

Even with carburetor modification, engine horsepower will decrease about 3.5%
for each 1,000 feet (300 meters) increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on
horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor modification is made.

When the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation, the
air-fuel mixture will be too lean for low altitude use. Operation at altitudes
below 5,000 feet (1,500meters) with a modified carburetor may cause the
engine to overheat and result in serious engine damage. For use at low
altitudes, have your servicing dealer return the carburetor to original
factory specifications.

Oxygenated Fuels

Some conventional gasolines are being blended with alcohol or an ether

compound. These gasolines are collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels. To
meet clean air standards, some areas of the United States and Canada use
oxygenated fuels to help reduce emissions.

If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum
octane rating requirement.

Before using an oxygenated fuel, try to confirm the fuel’s contents. Some
states/provinces require this information to be posted on the pump.

The following are the EPA-approved percentages of oxygenates:

ETHANOL——(ethyl or grain alcohol) 10% by volume.

32
 You may use gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume.
Gasoline containing ethanol may be marketed under the name
‘‘Gasohol’’.

MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) 15% by volume

You may use gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by volume.

METHANOL——(methyl or wood alcohol) 5% by volume

You may use gasoline containing up to 5% methanol by volume
as long as it also contains cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors to
protect the fuel system. Gasoline containing more than 5%
methanol by volume may cause starting and/or performance
problems. It may also damage metal, rubber, and plastic parts
of your fuel system.

If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, try another service station, or
switch to another brand of gasoline.

Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use of an

oxygenated fuel containing more than the percentages of oxygenates mentioned
above are not covered under warranty.

Emission Control System Information

Source of Emissions

The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and

hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen is very important
because, under certain conditions, they react to form photochemical smog when
subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is
toxic.

This utilizes lean carburetor settings and other systems to reduce the emissions
of carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and hydrocarbons.

Tampering and Altering

Tampering with or altering the emission control system may increase emissions
beyond the legal limit. Among those acts that constitute tampering are:

·Removal or alteration of any part of the intake, fuel, or exhaust systems.

·Altering or defeating the governor linkage or speed-adjusting mechanism to

cause the engine to operate outside its design parameters.

33
Problems That May Affect Emissions

If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have your engine inspected
and repaired by your servicing dealer.

·Hard starting or stalling after starting.

·Rough idle.
·Misfiring or backfiring under load.
·Afterburning (backfiring).
·Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.

Replacement Parts

The emission control systems on your engine were designed, built, and certified
to conform with EPA and California emission regulations. We recommend the use
of genuine parts whenever you have maintenance done. These original-design
replacement parts are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts,
so you can be confident of their performance. The use of replacement parts that
are not of the original design and quality may impair the effectiveness of your
emission control system.

A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility that the part will
not adversely affect emission performance. The manufacturer or rebuilder of the
part must certify that use of the part will not result in a failure of the engine to
comply with emission regulations.

Maintenance

Follow the maintenance schedule on page 27. Remember that this schedule is
based on the assumption that your machine will be used for its designed purpose.
Sustained high-load or high-temperature operation, or use in unusually wet or
dusty conditions, will require more frequent service.

Air Index

An Air Index Information hang tag/label is applied to engines certified to an

emission durability time period in accordance with the requirements of the
California Air Resources Board.

The bar graph is intended to provide you, our customer, the ability to compare the
emissions performance of available engines. The lower the Air Index, the less
pollution.

The durability description is intended to provide you with information relating to

the engine’s emission durability period. The descriptive term indicates the
useful-life period for the engine’s emission control system. See your Emission

34
Control Warranty for additional information.
