Loosen the throttle lever knob (c) and set the engine throttle (d) to high
speed. Tighten the throttle lever knob.
Open the cover on the battery box (a) and turn and hold the ignition key
(b) to the ON position until the glow plug light on the control panel goes
out. Then, turn the ignition key to the START position. Release the key
after the engine starts. It will spring back into the ON position.
Note: The engine will not start if the oil pressure is too low or the
cylinder head temperature exceeds the preset value.
The pump should prime and begin pumping within a minute or two. At
high suction lifts or low engine speeds, the pump will require a longer
period of time to prime. If the pump does not prime, shut off the engine
and refer to the section on troubleshooting.
NOTICE: DO NOT crank the starter for more than 15–20 seconds at a
time; the starter motor can overheat and be damaged.
NOTICE: DO NOT run the pump dry for long periods of time or run the
pump without oil in the bearing/seal housing. The mechanical seal
could overheat and be damaged.
Adjusting Pump Flow:
Pump flow can be set by adjusting the speed of the engine.
To set the engine speed, loosen the throttle lever knob (c) and adjust
the throttle lever (d).
Tighten the throttle lever knob to hold the throttle lever in place while
the pump is operating. When priming the pump, set the throttle lever at
full speed until the pump flow begins; then, adjust the throttle lever to
the desired speed.
Turn ignition key (b) to OFF.
NOTICE: If temperatures are expected to fall below freezing during the
night, be sure to drain the pump housing (e) while the pump is not in
use.
