SAFETY INSTRUCTION1.
To ensure safe operation
Honda water pump is designed to give safe and
dependable service if operated according to instructions.
Read and understand the Owner’s Manual before operating the w at er pump. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a
colorless, od orless gas. Brea thing c arbon
monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and
may lead to death.
If you run the pump in an area that is confined,
or even partially enclosed area, the air you
breathe could contain a dangerous amount of
exhaust gas.
Never run your pump inside a garage, house or
near open windows or doors.
−
Stop the engine before refueling.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive
under certain conditions. Refuel in a well
ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor
may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
Never run the engine in an enclosed or confined area. Exhaust gas
contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas; exposure can cause loss
of consciousness and may lead to death.

To ensure safe operation
Always make a pre-operation inspection (page ) before you start
the engine. You may prevent an accident or equipment damage.
For safety, never pump flammable or corrosive liquids such as
gasoline or acid. Also, to avoid pump corrosion, never pump sea
water, chemical solutions, or caustic liquids such as used oil, wine,
or milk.
Place the pump on a firm, level surface. If the pump is tilted or
overturned, fuel spillage may result.
To prevent fire hazards and to provide adequate ventilation, keep
the pump at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from building walls and
other equipment during operation. Do not place flammable objects
close to the pump.
Children and pets must be kept away from the area of operation
due to a possibility of burns from the hot engine components.
Know how to stop the pump quickly, and understand the operation
of all controls. Never permit anyone to operate the pump without
proper instructions.

Connect the suction hose.
1.
Use commercially available hose, hose connector, and hose bands.
The suction hose must be of reinforced, noncollapsible construction.
Suction hose length should not be longer than necessary, as pump
performance is best when the pump is not far above the water level.
Self-priming time is also proportional to hose length.
The strainer that is provided with the pump should be attached to the
end of the suction hose with a band, as shown.
Always install the strainer on the end of the suction hose before
pumping. The strainer will exclude debris that can cause clogging or
impeller damage.

Connect the discharge hose.
2.
Use a commercially available hose, hose connector, and hose band. A
short, large-diameter hose is most efficient. Long or small-diameter
hose increases fluid friction and reduces pump output.
Tighten the hose band securely to prevent the hose from
disconnecting under high pressure.

Check the engine oil level.
3.
Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and
service life. Nondetergent or vegetable oils are not recommended.
Check the oil level with the pump on a level surface and the engine
stopped.
Use high-detergent, premium quality 4-stroke engine oil, certified to
meet or exceed U.S. automobile manufacturer’s requirements for API
service category SE or later (or equivalent).
Select the appropriate viscosity for the average temperature in your
area.

Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
Insert the filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw it in.
If the level is low, fill to the top of the oil filler neck with the recommended oil.
Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine
damage.

Oil Alert System (Where equipped)
The Oil Alert System is designed to prevent engine damage caused by
an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase. Before the oil level in the
crankcase can fall below a safe limit, the Oil Alert System will automatically stop the engine (the engine switch will remain in the ON
position).
If the engine stops and will not restart, check the engine oil level
before troubleshooting in other areas.

Check the fuel level.
4.
Use automotive unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of
91 or higher (a Pump Octane Number of 86 or higher).
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain
conditions.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks in the refueling area or where
gasoline is stored.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor
may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of
vapor.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
With the engine stopped and on a level surface, remove the fuel tank
cap and check the fuel level.
Refill the tank if the fuel level is low.
Do not fill the fuel tank completely. Fill tank to approximately 25 mm (1
inch) below the top of the fuel tank to allow for fuel expansion. If may
be necessary to lower the fuel level depending on operating
conditions.
After refueling, make sure the tank cap is closed properly and securely.
