The PT6 is a self-priming, high performance trash pump designed to
handle water and solids up to 50.8 mm (2.0 in). It is built for the
demands of construction, mining, municipality, farm and marine
applications.
The engine requires No. 2 diesel fuel. Use only fresh, clean fuel. Fuel
containing water or dirt will damage the fuel system. Consult the
engine owner's manual for complete fuel specifications.
Read and understand the safety and operating instructions at the
beginning of this manual.
Check:
The oil level in the engine
The fuel level
The condition of the air cleaner
The tightness of the external fasteners
The condition of the fuel lines
NOTICE: DO NOT run the engine without oil in the oil-bath air cleaner
or severe engine damage will result.
Check the bearing/seal housing (f) for proper oil level. Also check the
oil for water contamination. Do not operate the pump if contamination
is found.
Position the pump as near to the water as possible, on a firm, flat
surface. Keep the pump level.
Lower the rear stabilizers (a) until they contact the ground. Lock the
stabilizers in position with the pins.
Crank down the jack stand (b) on the front of the trailer. Block both
wheels to keep the pump from rolling during operation.
