4. Install the garden hose adapter (Canadian type only)
An adapter is supplied with the pump
for optional connection of a garden
hose to the pump discharge port.
Garden hose is a convenient and
economical option for carrying the
discharged water, though its smaller
diameter will reduce the maximum
discharge capacity of the pump.
Hand-tighten the adapter, just tight
enough to prevent leakage, then attach
the garden hose to the adapter.
NOTE:
• Overtightening the adapter can
damage the threads.
• If the garden hose is equipped with a
shut off valve or nozzle, do not shut
off the discharge water for a long
period of time, as that could cause the
pump to overheat.
• Do not install the adapter on the pump
suction port. Garden hose is not
suitable for use us suction hose,
because it will restrict flow and cause
the pump to cavitate, damaging the
pump.
5. Check the engine oil level.
Every 10 hours, check the engine oil level and replenish oil up to the
top of the oil filler neck if the pump is operated for more than 10 hours
continuously.
CAUTION:
• Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service
life. Nondetergent or vegetable oils are not recommended.
• Check the oil level with the pump on a level surface and the engine
stopped.
