STORING YOUR QTAC

General Storage

•
Drain the fuel from the pump engine carburetor and fuel tank. See the Honda
Owner's Manual for additional details.
•
Drain any water from the water tank by opening all the valves, and the water tank
drain port (Figure 1, Item 7)
•
Drain the water from the pump by opening the pump drain port (Figure 2, Item 5)
See the pump Instruction Manual for additional details.
NOTE: If your QTAC will be subjected to below freezing temperatures, ensure
that all water is drained from the water tank, pumping system, and hoses. Store
with all valves in the open position. If you would like to keep water in your QTAC
in below freezing temperatures, make sure to add an appropriate amount of RV
antifreeze to the water to prevent the formation of ice.

SPECIAL QTAC OPERATION

Using More Than Water in Your QTAC

If substances other than plain water have been used in the tank of your QTAC (e.g.
foam, pesticides, etc.), always clean and rinse the unit with clean water as soon as you
can after these chemicals have been used, until all traces of the chemicals have been
removed. Failure to flush the system in this manner can result in premature pump seal
failure, significant corrosion of the pump metal components, and build-up of chemical
byproducts in the tank and throughout the pumping system.
NOTE: Running substances other than plain water can cause significant foaming
to occur in the pumping system – if the pump has been run out of water with a
foaming agent in the tank, the pump will likely need to be primed on subsequent
water tank refills to remove the foam and to develop proper pressure.
