MQ600TD80 TRASH PUMP• OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #11 (10/10/11) — PAGE 15
GENERAL INFORMATION
The MQ600TD80 Trash Pump is a self-priming centrifugal
trash pump powered by a 63 horsepower air-cooled four
stroke Deutz diesel engine. Both the intake (suction) and
discharge ports on the MQ600TD80 incorporate a 6-inch
diameter opening, which allows the pump to perform at a
rate of approximately 1,600 gpm or 6,055 lpm.
This is a self-priming pump design and the pump casing
must be filled with water before starting operation. The
engine drives a rotating disc with two (or more vanes)
called an impeller that creates an area of low pressure
inside the pump. Priming is accomplished when all air is
purged from the pump and suction line allowing water to
flow continuously into the pump.
TRASH PUMP
Trash pumps derive their name from their ability to handle
a greater amount of debris and solids than standard
centrifugal pumps. These pumps generally handle solids up
to 1/2 the size of the discharge opening making them less
likely to clog. Also trash pumps are capable of handling
water with 25% solids by weight.
The advantage of using a trash pump is that it can be quickly
and easily disassembled in the field to remove debris in the
event the pump becomes clogged.
SUCTION LIFT
This pump has a maximum suction lifts up to 25 feet at
sea level. At elevations above sea level suction lift
decreases at a rate of 1 foot of suction lift per 1,000 feet
of elevation. Therefore, when this pump is being used at an
elevation of 5,000 feet the maximum suction lift is reduced
to 20 feet. It is recommended that the pump be located as
close to the source as possible to minimize suction lift.
PUMP SUPPORT
The pump should always be placed on solid stationary
ground in a level position. To prevent the trailer from tipping,
place blocks under the trailer's bumper. In addition, place
chock blocks behind each wheel to prevent the trailer from
rolling.
NEVER place the pump on soft soil. The suction hose or
pipe connection should always be checked for tightness
and leaks. A small suction leak in the hose or fittings could
prevent the pump from priming.
ELEVATION
Elevations over 3,000 feet will effect the performance of
the pump. Due to less atmospheric pressure at higher
altitudes, pumps DO NOT have the priming ability that they
have at sea level.
A general rule of thumb is that for every 1,000 feet of
elevation above sea level a pump will lose one foot of
priming ability.
For example, in Flagstaff, Arizona where the elevation is
approximately 7,000 feet, the pump would have a suction
lift of only 18 feet rather than the 25 feet at sea level.
PUMP CLEAN-OUT
The clean-out cover on the MQ600TD80 has been design
for easy removal that allows for easy access to the wear
plate and impeller for cleaning and servicing.
In order to comply with local laws regarding spark arresters,
consult the engine distributor or the local Health and Safety
Administrator.
MECHANICAL SEAL LUBRICATION
The pump uses a oil lubricated mechanical seal. The oil in
the seal chamber lubricates the seal and prevents it from
overheating. Never operate the pump without water in
the casing as this may cause the seal to fail. Never pump
chemicals which will attack the seals elastomers leading
to premature failure (See section on seal maintenance).
ENGINE SAFETY
Internal combustion engines present special hazards during
operation and fueling. Failure to follow the safety guidelines
described in the Rules for Safe Operation section of this
manual and the Deutz Engine Operator's Manual could
result in severe injury or death.
ACCESSORIES
Multiquip offers a complete line of fittings, hoses, and
clamps to properly connect the pump to match various job
conditions. Refer to the part list section this manual for a
complete list of accessories.
PAGE 16 —MQ600TD80 TRASH PUMP • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #11 (10/10/11)
LINE CONFIGURATION/LAYOUT
The pump performance is adversely affected by increased
suction lift. Place the pump as close as possible to liquid
being pumped. Always place pump on level ground to
insure sufficient engine lubrication and fuel supply. If
trailer-mounted, pump block wheels before operation. The
lines near the pump must be properly supported. Never
use shut-off valves.
SUCTION LINE
Use appropriate 6-inch diameter hoses, the suction hose
must be rigid, reinforced to prevent collapse under suction.
To prevent air pockets, the suction hose must be straight
short as possible; the line must always slope upward from
the water source to the pump. The line should not slope
down or air pockets may occur. If liquid being supplied to
pump is under pressure, the incoming pressure must be
limited to 50% of the maximum operating pressure based
on the pump engineering data curve.
DISCHARGED LINE
Maintain discharge lines straight as possible to prevent
whipping and reduce friction loss. The line friction can be
reduced with minimal use of fittings and elbows. If using
elbows, wide radius is preferred. Always use strainer
furnished with the pump.
FITTINGS
Use properly rated 6-inch size fittings. Align fittings to pump
before tightening connections. The pump connections
should be sealed with pipe sealant to ensure air tight seal. A
slight leak will affect priming ability and output performance

ALWAYS be sure the battery cables are properly connected
to the battery terminals (Figure 5). The RED cable is
connected to the positive terminal of the battery, and the
BLACK cable is connected to the negative terminal.
Figure 5. Battery Cable Connections
BEFORE STARTING
1. Read safety instructions at the beginning of manual.
2. Place pump as near to water as possible, on a firm
flat, level surface.
3. To prime pump, remove fill cap (Figure 3) and fill pump
case with water. If the pump case is not filled with water
before starting, it will not begin pumping.
NOTICE
Pump casing must be filled with water before using
pump, otherwise pump will not be able to begin
pumping.
WARNING
Do not open fill cap if pump is hot! Water inside may
be under pressure.
4. Check for leaks between pump and engine. If water
is leaking between the pump and engine housing,
the seal inside the pump may be worn or damaged.
Continued operation of the pump is not recommended.
Further usage of the pump under these conditions may
cause severe water damage to engine.
HOSES AND CLAMPS
1. Check that all hoses are securely attached to the
pump. Make certain suction hose Figure 3) does
not have any air leakage. Tighten hose clamps and
couplings as required.
2. It is recommended that 2 clamps be used when
securing the suction hose to the inlet side of the pump.
3. Remember suction hoses must be rigid enough not to
collapse when the pump is in operation.
4. Check that the discharge hose (Figure 3) is not restricted.
Place hose so that it lays as straight as it is possible on the
ground. Remove any twists or sharp bends from hose which
may block the flow of water.
NOTICE
Suction and discharge hoses are available from
Multiquip. Contact your nearest dealer for more
information.
5. The discharge hose is usually a collapsible (thin-walled)
hose, however if a thin-walled discharge hose is not
available, a rigid suction hose can be substituted in its
.
place
6. Make sure the suction strainer (Figure 3) is clean and
securely attached to the water end of the suction hose.
The strainer is designed to protect the pump by preventing
large objects from being pulled into the pump.
CAUTION
The strainer should be positioned so it will remain completely
under water. Running the pump with the strainer above
water for long periods can damage the pump.
CAUTION
DO NOT pump flammable fluids, corrosive chemicals or
fluids containing toxic substances. These fluids can create
potentially dangerous health and environmental hazards.
Contact local authorities for assistance.
7. Pipes, hoses, fittings and elbows all produce friction
that can significantly reduce the flow of water. Keep
hose length to a minimum and minimize the use of
elbows and other fittings to reduce friction.
8. Always use a suction hose or pipe that matches the
size of the pump inlet to insure optimum performance
and reduce the risk of damage to the pump.
9. It is recommended that the discharge hose or pipe
match the size of the pump outlet to reduce friction as
much as possible. Using a discharge line that is larger
than the pump outlet will reduce friction and improve
water flow. Similarly, a smaller line will reduce water
flow by increasing friction.

MAINTENANCE
PUMP VACUUM TEST
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to start the engine unless the pump
has previously been primed with water. Severe pump
damage will occur if pump has not been primed.
To perform the pump vacuum test do the following:
1. Remove the pump fill cap, and fill the pump with water.
2. Start the engine as outlined in the initial start-up
section, and wait for the pump to begin pumping.
Confirm engine is operating at 1,900 RPMs
3. As shown in Figure 18, place a water hose inside
the discharge opening of the pump, and turn on the
water. This flow of water into the discharge opening
will prevent the pump from running dry.
4. Place the Pump Vacuum Tester over the pump inlet
opening (Figure 18) with the vacuum gauge facing
upwards. It may be necessary to apply a small amount
of water around the rubber seal of the vacuum tester
between the vacuum tester and the inlet port on the
pump. If air leaks are present re-seat vacuum tester.
6. Run the pump for a few minutes while monitoring the
vacuum gauge. A pump will lose approximately one
foot of suction lift for every 1,000 feet of elevation.
Depending on the elevation, the gauge should read
between 20-29 in. Hg. (inches of mercury). This is an
indication that the pump is working correctly.
7. If the vacuum tester gauge indicates a reading below
-20 in. Hg, it can then be assumed that the pump is
not functioning correctly, and corrective action needs
to be taken.
NOTICE
25 in. Hg (inches of mercury) translates into 25 feet of
lift at sea level.
5. Check and make sure that there are no air leaks

Mechanical Seal Replacement Instructions
Disassembly
1. It is recommended to remove the main casing body.
2. Remove the impeller by first locking (using a wrench)
the front engine crankshaft pulley.
3. Using a soft-faced mallet, remove impeller by tapping
vane in counterclockwise direction.
4. Remove mechanical seal components.
5. Remove the rear adaptor cover, sight glass, and vent
tubes.
6. Using a punch, remove adaptor plate mechanical seal
stationary seal plate.
7. Remove stationary oil seal.
Installation
1. Install new stationary oil seal into adaptor case
housing. The seal spring should face inward towards
the impeller.
2. Lightly lubricate the mechanical seal stationary seal
plate O-ring and gently tap into adaptor plate making
sure it is level with the O-ring groove facing the
impeller.
plate by installing the O-ring then the tungsten carbide
stationary element squarely onto the stationary seal
plate. (Note: Tungsten element chamfer side towards
pump end). A slight amount of grease can be used to
allow retention. Double check that the Tungsten carbide
element surface is free of dirt contamination including
fingerprints.
5. Coat the mechanical seal bellows with a light drop of
lubricating oil. Slide the seal bellows onto the shaft
sleeve until flush with the sleeves chamfered end.
Place the Tungsten carbide rotating element onto seal
cage, the chamfered side towards engine. Inspect the
rotating Tungsten for cleanliness. Use a slight amount
of grease for retention. Carefully push and rotate the
sleeve assembly onto the shaft until the Tungsten
element faces are mated. The sleeve should firmly
rest against the shaft shoulder. Use extreme care not
to damage or roll over the oil seal lip.
6. Alternative mechanical seal installation method —
After installation of adaptor plate assembly, slide the
sleeve chamfered side toward engine. Use extreme
care not to damage the oil seal. Utilize secondary
sleeve as installation tool, installing over shaft butting
against primary sleeve. Lubricate seal bellows slowly
sliding seal assembly onto primary sleeve until the
Tungsten carbide faces are squarely mated. Remove
installation tool.
7. Assemble th e spr i ng then add the nece s s ar y
adjustment shims.
8. Inspect the impeller and shaft threads and make sure
they are clean before installation. Apply "Anti-Seize"
compound. Even the slightest amount of dirt on the
thread can cause the impeller to seize or make future
removal difficult. At the slightest sign of binding,
immediately back impeller off inspecting threads. Do
not force the impeller onto the shaft. The impeller rear
to adaptor plate clearance is 0.25 - 0.40 inches (0.64
- 1.02 mm). Make positively sure that the impeller is
fully tightened utilizing all the threads. If not properly
tightened, the impeller could further tighten jamming
into the adaptor plate during pump operation, seizing
the engine.
3. Install the adaptor plate bolting onto the intermediate
bearing housing.
4. Inside the adaptor plate cavity, assemble the stationary
MQ600TD80 TRASH PUMP• OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #11 (10/10/11) — PAGE 29

MAINTENANCE
Oil Lubrication
Mechanical Seal
1. Place the pump on level ground.
2. Fill the sight glass with SAE #30 non-detergent oil
through the sight glass vent cap.
3. Check the oil level regularly.
4. Inspect for discoloration which may indicate that the
mechanical seal is beginning to leak, passing water
into the lubrication cavity.
5. The reservoir capacity is 3.3 oz. (0.1 liter).
NOTICE
If lubricating after mechanical seal replacement, it is
recommended to purge seal cavity of air by removing
the weep hole plug found opposite to the sight glass.
Fill sight glass with oil until visible from the weep hole.
Reinstall plug, filling sight glass to proper level.
PREPARATION FOR LONG TERM STORAGE
For storage of the pump for over 30 days, the following is
required:
Drain the fuel tank completely.
Run the engine until the fuel in the injection system is
completely consumed.
Completely drain used oil from the engine crankcase
and fill with fresh clean oil, then follow the procedures
described in the engine manual for engine storage.
Remove the drain plug from the pump and drain out any
water from left in the housing.
Remove the pump cover and clean inside of pump
housing. Coat inside of pump housing with a light film
of oil to reduce corrosion. A spray can of oil works well
for this application.
Cover suction and discharge ports with duct tape to
prevent any foreign matter from falling into pump.
Main Bearings
1. Place pump on level ground.
2. Fill sight glass with SAE #30 non-detergent oil through
the top access port until visible.
3. Monitor the lubrication for evidence of moisture
condensation par ticularly in areas with unusual
temperature variations.
4. Do not over-lubricate. Excess oil can cause the
bearings to overheat resulting in premature failure.
5. Under normal conditions, drain and refill each year.
6. The oil reservoir oil capacity is 8.45 oz. (0.259 liter).
Impeller/Wear-Plate Clearance
1. For optimal performance, the recommended clearance
between the impeller and the wear plate is 0.10 -
0.20 inches (0.25 - 0.51 mm). The clearance can be
inspected by reaching with feeler gauge inside the
discharge or fill ports.
Cover pump and engine with plastic covering or
equivalent and store in a clean, dry place.
2. Adjustment is made by removing the main pump
housing, adding or subtracting gaskets located
between the adaptor plate and the main housing.
Typically only one or two gaskets are used.

to pass, due to slower acceleration and increased length.
Be alert for slippery conditions. You are more likely to be
affected by slippery road surfaces when driving a tow
vehicle with a trailer, than driving a tow vehicle without
a trailer.
Check rearview mirrors frequently to observe the trailer
and traffi c.
NEVER drive faster than what is safe.
WARNING
Driving too fast for severe road conditions can result in
loss of control and cause death or serious injury.
Decrease your speed as road, weather, and lighting

TRAILER GUIDELINES
vehicle are rated for the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of
your trailer.
WARNING
Proper selection and condition of the coupler and hitch
are essential to safely towing your trailer. A loss of
coupling may result in death or serious injury.
• Be sure the hitch load rating is equal to or greater
than the load rating of the coupler.
• Be sure the hitch size matches the coupler size.
• Observe the hitch for wear, corrosion and cracks
before coupling. Replace worn, corroded or cracked
hitch components before coupling the trailer to the
tow vehicle.
• Be sure the hitch components are tight before
coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle.
WARNING
An improperly coupled trailer can result in death or
serious injury.
DO NOT move the trailer until:
• The coupler is secured and locked to hitch.
• The safety chains are secured to the tow vehicle.
• The trailer jack(s) are fully retracted.
DO NOT tow the trailer on the road until:
• Tires and wheels are checked.
• The trailer brakes are checked.
Follow all of the safety precautions and instructions in
this manual to ensure safety of persons, equipment, and
satisfactory life of the trailer. Always use an adequate tow
vehicle and hitch. If the vehicle or hitch is not properly
selected and matched to the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) of your trailer, you can cause an accident that
could lead to death or serious injury.
If you already have a tow vehicle, know your vehicle tow
rating and make certain the trailer’s rated capacity is less
than or equal to the tow vehicle’s rated towing capacity. If
you already have (or plan to buy) a trailer, make certain
that the tow rating of the tow vehicle is equal to or greater
than that of the trailer.

TRAILER GUIDELINES
Be sure that the brakes and all of the lights on your trailer
are functioning properly before towing your trailer. Check
the trailer taillights by turning on your tow vehicle headlights.
Check the trailer brake lights by having someone step on
the tow vehicle brake pedal while you look at trailer lights.
Do the same thing to check the turn signal lights. See Trailer
Wiring Diagram section in this manual.
Standard mirrors usually do not provide adequate visibility
for viewing traffi c to the sides and rear of a towed trailer.
You must provide mirrors that allow you to safely observe
approaching traffi c.
WARNING
Improper electrical connection between the tow vehicle
and the trailer will result in inoperable lights and can
lead to collision.
Before each tow, check that the tail lights, brake lights
and turn signals work.
TRAILER TOWING TIPS
Driving a vehicle with a trailer in tow is vastly different
from driving the same vehicle without a trailer in tow.
Acceleration, maneuverability and braking are all diminished
with a trailer in tow.
It takes longer to get up to speed, you need more room to
turn and pass, and more distance to stop when towing a
trailer. You will need to spend time adjusting to the different
feel and maneuverability of the tow vehicle with a loaded
trailer.
Because of the signifi cant differences in all aspects of
maneuverability when towing a trailer, the hazards and risks
of injury are also much greater than when driving without
a trailer. You are responsible for keeping your vehicle and
trailer in control, and for all the damage that is caused if
you lose control of your vehicle and trailer.
responds. Next, make some right and left hand turns.
Watch in your side mirrors to see how the trailer follows
the tow vehicle. Turning with a trailer attached requires
more room.
Stop the rig a few times from speeds no greater than
10 mph. If your trailer is equipped with brakes, try using

Figure B. VIN Tag Location
The trailer VIN Tag contains the following critical safety
information for the use of your trailer.
GAWR: The maximum gross weight that an axle cansupport.
It is the lowest of axle, wheel, or tire rating.
Usually, the tire or wheel rating is lower than the axle rating,
and determines GAWR.
GVWR: The maximum allowable gross weight of the trailer
and its contents. The gross weight of the trailer includes
the weight of the trailer and all of the items within it. GVWR
is sometimes referred to as GTWR (Gross Trailer Weight
Rating), or MGTW (Maximum Gross Trailer Weight). GVWR,
GTWR and MGTW are all the same rating.
The sum total of the GAWR for all trailer axles may be less
than the GVWR for the trailer, because some of the trailer
load is to be carried by the tow vehicle, rather than by the
trailer axle(s). The total weight of the cargo and trailer must
not exceed the GVWR, and the load on an axle must not
exceed its GAWR.

It is wise to carry these warning devices even if you are
not towing a trailer. It is particularly important to have these
when towing a trailer because the hazard fl ashers of your
towing vehicle will not operate for as long a period of time
when the battery is running both the trailer lights and tow
vehicle lights.
SAFETY CHAINS
If the coupler connection comes loose, the safety chains
can keep the trailer attached to the tow vehicle. With
properly rigged safety chains, it is possible to keep the
tongue of the trailer from digging into the road pavement,
even if the coupler-to-hitch connection comes apart.
TRAILER LIGHTING AND BRAKING CONNECTOR
A device that connects electrical power from the tow vehicle
to the trailer. Electricity is used to turn on brake lights,
running lights, and turn signals as required. In addition, if
your trailer has a separate braking system, the electrical
connector will also supply power to the brakes from the
tow vehicle.

BREAKAWAY SYSTEM
If the trailer coupler connection comes loose, the breakaway
system can actuate emergency hydraulic brakes depending
on the type of actuator on the trailer. The breakaway cable
must be rigged to the tow vehicle with appropriate slack
that will activate the system if the coupler connection
comes loose.
JACKSTAND
A device on the trailer that is used to raise and lower the
coupler. The jack is sometimes called the “landing gear” or
the “tongue jack”.

Tires with too little tread will not provide adequate tracking
on wet roadways and can result in loss of control, leading
to death or serious injury.
Improper tire pressure causes an unstable trailer and
can result in a tire blowout and loss of control. Therefore,
before each tow you must also check the tire pressure. Tire
pressure must be checked when tires are cold.
Allow 3 hours cool-down after driving as much as 1 mile at
40 mph before checking tire pressure. Trailer tires will be
infl ated to higher pressures than passenger vehicle tires.

If additional work items (hoses, tools, clamps etc.) are
going to be added to the trailer, be sure they are distributed
evenly to prevent overloading front to back and side to side.
Heavy items should be placed low and as close to the axle
positions as reasonable. Too many items on one side may
overload a tire.
Excessive loads and/or underinfl ation cause tire overloading
and, as a result, abnormal tire fl exing occurs. This situation
can generate an excessive amount of heat within the tire.
Excessive heat may lead to tire failure. It is the air pressure
that enables a tire to support the load, so proper infl ation
is critical. The proper air pressure may be found on the
certifi cation/VIN label and/or on the Tire and Loading
Information placard. This value should never exceed the

TIRE FUNDAMENTALS
Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized
information on the sidewall of all tires (Figure J). This
information identifies and describes the fundamental
characteristics of the tire and also provides a tire
identifi cation number for safety standard certifi cation and
in case of a recall.
Figure J. Standard Tire Sidewall Information
P: The “P” indicates the tire is for passenger vehicles.
Next number: This three-digit number gives the width in
millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.
In general, the larger the number, the wider the tire.
Next number: This two-digit number, known as the aspect
ratio, gives the tire’s ratio of height to width. Numbers of
70 or lower indicate a short sidewall for improved steering
response and better overall handling on dry pavement.
P: The “R” stands for radial. Radial ply construction of tires
has been the industry standard for the past 20 years.
Next number: This two-digit number is the wheel or rim
diameter in inches. If you change your wheel size, you
will have to purchase new tires to match the new wheel
diameter.
Next number: This two- or three-digit number is the tire’s
load index. It is a measurement of how much weight each
tire can support. You may fi nd this information in your
owner’s manual. If not, contact a local tire dealer. Note:

is infl ated properly and not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinfl ation or excessive loading, either separately or
in combination, can cause heat build-up and possible tire
failure. From highest to lowest, a tire’s resistance to heat
is graded as “A”, “B”, or “C”.

trauma.
Remove bits of glass and foreign objects wedged in
the tread.
Make sure your tire valves have valve caps.
ALWAYS
before towing. Check tire pressure at least once a
month.
Figure K. UTQGS Tire Information
Tires for light trucks have other markings besides those
found on the sidewalls of passenger tires.
LT: The “LT” indicates the tire is for light trucks or trailers.
ST: An “ST” is an indication the tire is for trailer use only.
Max. Load Dual kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) Cold: This information
indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire
is used as a dual, that is, when four tires are put on each
rear axle (a total of six or more tires on the vehicle).
Max. Load Single kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) Cold: This information
indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire
is used as a single.

Replacing Worn or Damaged Tires
Replace the tire before towing the trailer if the tire treads
have less than 1/16 inch depth or the telltale bands are
a damaged tire before towing the trailer.

thereafter
If the trailer has been struck, or impacted, on or near the
wheels, or if the trailer has struck a curb, inspect the rims for
damage (i.e. being out of round); and replace any damaged
wheel. Inspect the wheels for damage every year, even if
no obvious impact has occurred.
Wheels, Bearings and Lug Nuts
A loose, worn or damaged wheel bearing is the most
common cause of brakes that grab.
To check wheel bearings, jack trailer and check wheels
for side-to-side looseness. If the wheels are loose, or spin
with a wobble, the bearings must be serviced or replaced.
Check infl ation pressure weekly during use to insure the
maximum tire life and tread wear. Most trailer axles are
built with sealed bearings that are not serviceable. Sealed
bearings must be replaced as complete units.
