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

Figure 4 shows a typical application using the MQ600TD80
diesel powered trash pump. Please note that this pump
is intended for the removal of clean water and water
containing some debris and solids. Maximum size of solids
should not exceed 3 inches (76 mm) in diameter. DO NOT
set strainer on bottom of water bed. Placing the strainer
above the water bed will prevent the pump from drawing in
excessive amounts of sand and foreign debris.
The following terms are usually used when referring to lift
or head:
1. Static Suction Lift — The vertical distance from the
water line to the center of the impeller.
2. Static Discharge Head — The vertical distance from
the discharge outlet to the point of discharge or liquid
level when discharging into the bottom of a water tank.
3. Dynamic Suction Head — The static suction lift plus
the friction in the suction line. Also referred to as total
suction head.
APPLICATION
4. Dynamic Discharge Head — The static discharge
head plus the friction in the discharge line. Also referred
to as total discharge head.
Total Dynamic Head — The Dynamic Head Suction Head
plus the Dynamic Discharge Head. Also referred to as
total head.

SETUP
BATTERY CABLE INSTALLATION
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.

STARTUP
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to start the engine unless the pump
has previously been primed with water. Severe damage
to the pump's mechanical seal will occur if pump has not
been primed
.
ENGINE OIL
1. Make sure pump/engine is on level ground.
2. Pull the engine oil dipstick from its holder.
3. Verify that oil level (Figure 6) is maintained between
the two notches on the dipstick.
5. The oil listed in Table 5 is recommended to ensure
better engine performance. Use class CD or higher
grade motor oil.
FUEL
DANGER
Figure 6. Engine Oil Dipstick
4. If engine oil is low, fill engine crankcase with lubricating
oil through filler hole (Figure 7), but do not overfill.
NEVER fill the fuel tank while the engine
is running or in the dark. Fuel spillage on
a hot engine can cause a fire or explosion.
If fuel spillage occurs, wipe up the spilled
fuel completely to prevent fire hazards.
1. Determine if engine fuel is low by reading fuel indicator
gauge on top fuel cap. Fill with recommended type
diesel fuel. DO NOT fill the tank beyond capacity.
DANGER
DO NOT smoke while refueling. Motor
fuels are highly flammable and can be
dangerous if mishandled.
2. Handle fuel in a safety container. If the container does
not have a spout use a funnel.
3. Pay attention to the fuel tank capacity when replenishing
fuel. Refer to the fuel tank capacity listed in Engine
Specifications Table.
