SAFETY RULES
DANGER
Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and
extremely explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
When adding or removing fuel:
Turn the engine off and let it cool for at least two
minutes before removing the fuel cap. Loosen the
cap slowly to relieve pressure in the tank.
Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
DO NOT pump gas directly into the engine at the
gas station. Use an approved container to transfer
the fuel to the engine.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
Always keep fuel away from sparks, open flames,
pilot lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
When starting the engine:
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged engine. Make
certain that the gas cap, air filter, spark plug,
fuel lines and exhaust system are properly in
place. Allow spilled fuel to evaporate fully before
attempting to start the engine.
Make certain that the chemical pump is resting
firmly on level ground.
When operating the chemical pump:
DO NOT move or tip the chemical pump during
operation.
DO NOT tip the chemical pump or allow fuel or oil
to spill from the engine. Block the wheels to prevent
unintended movement.
When transporting or servicing the chemical
pump:
Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the off
position and the fuel tank is empty.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the chemical pump:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat and other sources of ignition.
WARNING
DO NOT pump salt, sludge, sewer, sea, or any other
type of water containing solid material.
WARNING

arm towards the engine faster than you can let go.
Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.
When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
CAUTION
Exceeding the chemical pump’s specification for
maximum head can damage the chemical pump
and/or hose kits connected to it.

NOT attempt to exceed the rated flow. Attempting
to increase the rated flow may damage the unit
and/or shorten its life.
