Pre-Start Checklist
1. Ensure pump is at least 3.3 ft. (1 m) from building or other equipment.
2. Place pump on a fl at sturdy surface. Select a clean location, ventilated and protected from inclement weather. Select a location which will not impede movement of people or vehicles.
3. Make sure pump remains stable and immobile while in operation. Do not forget that suction hose tends to pull pump towards water source during pumping.
4. Place pump as close as possible to liquid being drawn in. A shorter vertical distance between pump and liquid surface will yield more rapid priming and greater volume of liquid pumped. If pump is operated beside a pit or body of water, be sure it is well anchored so it does not fall in.
5. Submerge suction strainer (S) completely within liquid, taking care that it is not blocked.
6. Refer to all warning labels prior to starting.
7. Check oil level. Add oil if low. Do not overfi ll.
8. Check fuel level. Add fuel if low. Check fuel system components and lines for leaks. Never refuel while unit is running.
9. Check that air cleaner components and all air inlets are unobstructed, equipment covers, and guards are in place and securely fastened.
Starting
WARNING
Carbon Monoxide. Can cause severe nausea, fainting or death.
Avoid inhaling exhaust fumes. Only use product outdoors.
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless, and can cause death if inhaled.
WARNING
Rotating Parts can cause severe injury.
Stay away while pump is in operation.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate pump with covers, shrouds, or guards removed.
NOTE: Never attempt to operate pump without
priming water or pump will overheat. Extended dry operation will destroy mechanical seal.
If unit has been operated dry, stop
engine immediately and allow pump to cool before adding priming water.
NOTE: Always use a suction strainer (S) with
suction hose. Gravel or debris sucked into pump will cause serious damage to impeller and pump casting.
NOTE: Pump is not designed for on-board
use. Do not use it while installed on a vehicle.
Do not leave pump inside vehicle or in
trunk.
When operating or transporting pump,
be sure it is kept upright. If it tilts, fuel may leak from fuel tank.
1. Immerse suction strainer (S) completely in liquid that is to be sucked up. If there is a risk that it could become blocked up, then place suction strainer (S) on a stone base.
2. Fill body of pump with water via pump discharge port (B) or through pump fi ller cap (E).
3. Connect two discharge and suction couplings (U).
4. Turn fuel shut-off (I) valve to ON position (if equipped).
5. Turn engine on/off switch (L) to ON position (if equipped).
6. Start engine as follows:
Cold engine: Place throttle lever (K) midway
between SLOW and FAST positions. Place choke lever (J) into ON position.
Warm engine: Place throttle lever (K) midway
between SLOW and FAST positions. Return choke lever (J) to OFF position as soon as engine starts. A warm engine usually does not require choke on.
7. Slowly pull recoil starter handle (M) until just past compression-STOP! Return recoil starter handle (M); fi rmly pull straight out to avoid excessive rope wear from starter rope guide.
8. Gradually return choke lever (J) to OFF position after engine starts and warms up. Engine/equipment may be operated during warm up period, but it may be necessary to leave choke lever (J) partially on until engine warms up.

frozen before starting.
When starting pump in low ambient temperatures, allow engine to idle before increasing fl ow of liquid. Follow chart for temperature and time.
< -4° F (< -20° C) 5 minutes
-4° to 14° F (-20° to -10° C) 2 minutes 14° to 23° F (-10° to -5° C) 1 minutes
> 41° F (> 5° C) 20 seconds
1. Use proper oil for temperature expected.
2. Use fresh winter grade fuel. Winter grade fuel has higher volatility to improve starting.
Operation
WARNING
Rotating Parts can cause severe injury.
Stay away while pump is in operation.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate pump with covers, shrouds, or guards removed.
NOTE: If there is no fl ow of liquid through
pump, stop it and check suction circuit (suction strainer (S) and pipes).
NOTE: Avoid placing any fl ammable materials
near exhaust outlet during operation.
Do not place any material on pump
during operation.
Pump controls fl ow of liquid in accordance with its running speed. Pump engine is equipped with a speed control lever that enables fl ow from pump to be controlled.
Flow from pump also depends on suction and discharge elevation heads and on quality of liquid that is being pumped (clean / muddy water).
1. Move position of speed control lever (MAX to increase fl ow, MIN to reduce it).
Angle of Operation
Do not operate this engine exceeding maximum angle of operation; see specifi cation table. Engine damage could result from insuffi cient lubrication.
Stopping
1. If equipped, move throttle lever (K) to slow or idle position; stop engine.
2. Pump stops.
3. If equipped, close fuel shut-off (I) valve.
4. Disconnect suction and discharge pipes and allow liquid to fl ow out.
5. If pump is not used again on same day, rinse it out.
Rinsing
After pump has stopped and cooled down.
1. Fill pump body with clean water via pump discharge port (B) or through pump fi ller cap (E).
2. Slowly pull on recoil starter handle (M) several times until resistance is encountered and then allow it to return gently.
3. Unscrew and remove pump drain plug (G) from pump and allow water to fl ow out.
4. Screw pump drain plug (G) back into position.
5. Repeat operation if necessary.
6. Clean suction strainer (S), remove any dirt if necessary and rinse with clean water.
Engine Speed
NOTE: Do not tamper with governor setting to
increase maximum engine speed. Overspeed is hazardous and will void warranty.
High Altitude Operation
This engine may require a high altitude carburetor kit to ensure correct engine operation at altitudes above 4000 ft. (1219 meters). To obtain high altitude kit information or to fi nd a Kohler authorized dealer KohlerPower.com or call 1-800-544-2444 (U.S. and Canada).
This engine should be operated in its original confi guration below 4000 ft. (1219 meters) as damage may occur if high altitude carburetor kit is installed and operated below 4000 ft. (1219 meters).
Carburetor Icing
NOTE: Running engine with cover (N)
positioned for cold weather operation in normal conditions can damage engine.
Carburetor icing can take place when certain combinations of temperature and humidity exist. Result of carburetor icing is rough running at idle or low speed as well as black or white smoke.
