MQ-D305/D306 SERIES— GENERAL INFORMATION
APPLICATION
MQ Model D305BR/D306H series diaphragm
The
pumps are
designed to be used for de-watering applications. The suction
and discharge ports on this pump
use a 3-inch diameter opening,
which allows the pump to pump at rate of approximately 5,100
gallons/hour (gph) or 19,305 liters/hour (lph).
Diaphragm pumps use a positive displacement design rather
than centrifugal force to move water through the casing. This
means the pump will deliver a specific amount of flow per stroke,
revolution or cycle. These pumps are commonly referred to as
mud hogs, mud hens and mud suckers. Their names reflect their
Elevation
Higher elevations 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. This is due to
the “thinner air” or lack of oxygen at higher altitudes.
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. Table 3 shows
suction lift at various elevations.

increases.
, the HONDA GX-120 engine has
a built-in oil alarm engine shut-down feature. In the event the oil
level is low the engine will automatically shut-down.
Suction Lift
This pump is intended to be used for dewatering applications
and is capable of suction lifts up to 25 feet at sea level. For optimal
suction lift performance keep the suction hose or line as short as
possible. In general always place the pump as close to the water
as possible.
Pump Support
The pump should always be placed on
solid stationary ground
in a level position.
NEVER place the pump on

. 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.
Please contact your nearest authorized MQ
dealer for any accessories that your pump
may require.

INITIAL SERVICING
The engine (Figure 3) must be checked for proper lubrication and
filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the Honda manufacturers
engine manual for instructions and details for operation and
servicing.

Adding fuel to the tank should be done only
when the engine is stopped and has had an
opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel
spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until
the fuel residue has been completely wiped up,
and the area surrounding the engine is dry.

6.Choke Lever – Used in the starting of a cold engine, or in
cold weather conditions. The choke enriches the fuel
mixture.
7.Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering
the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter
cannister to gain access to filter element.
NOTE
8.Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system. Set
spark plug gap to 0.6 - 0.7 mm (0.028 - 0.031 inch) Clean
spark plug once a week.
9.Muffler – Used to reduce noise and emissions.
CAUTION - Burn Hazard
Engine components can generate extreme
heat. To prevent burns, DO NOT touch these
areas while the engine is running or
immediately after operating. NEVER operate
the engine with the muffler removed.
5.Fuel Valve Lever – OPEN to let fuel flow, CLOSE to stop
the flow of fuel.
10.Fuel Tank – Holds unleaded gasoline. For additional
information refer to engine owner's manual.

Operating the engine without an air
filter, with a damaged air filter, or a
filter in need of replacement will
allow dirt to enter the engine,
causing rapid engine wear.

Engine Maintenance
Perform engine maintenance procedures as referenced by
Table 6 below:
Perform the engine maintenance procedures as indicated below:
DAILY
■
Thoroughly remove dirt and oil from the engine and control
area. Clean or replace the air cleaner elements as necessary.
Check and retighten all fasteners as necessary. Check the
spring box and bellows for oil leaks. Repair or replace as
needed.
WEEKLY
■
Remove the fuel filter cap and clean the inside of the fuel
tank.
■
Remove or clean the filter at the bottom of the tank.
■
Remove and clean the spark plug (Figure 20), then adjust
the spark gap to 0.028 ~0.031 inch (0.6~0.7 mm). This unit
has electronic ignition, which requires no adjustments.
