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 and the chapter titled 5
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.
