DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING (Parts replacement
"Unleaded Gasoline for Automobile"
.
)
1. Turn the knob counterclock-wise and remove the knob.
2. Pull the handle towards you, and then both front cover
and volute casing can be removed.
3. Remove the peripheral plug before taking impeller out.
The impeller can be detached by prying loose
with a rod or the like.
4. Draw out the mechanical seal from the engine shaft
along with the sleeve.
NOTE: Please do not hammer an impeller directly when you want to
take it out from
the machine. It might damage the impeller.
Instead, take out the plug set first and then insert something like a rod or tool
which is thin enough to get through the hole and hammer the rod or tool at
the other end. The impeller can be removed out easily without damaging it.
NOTE: When assembling the parts, do not forget to place the adjusting washer,
O-ring, etc., in the right positions. Also, correctly install the front cover
and evenly tighten the right and left knobs.
Note that incomplete assembling may affect the performance o
f the unit.
Beware of water hammering
Do not allow any vehicle to run over the delivery hose.
Do not close the delivery valve
CAUTION
abruptly because water-hammer
may occur.
This may result in heavy
damage to the pump.
Do not close delivery
valve abruptly
Collapse of
delivery hose
For engine manual and notes, please refer to Engine Operation Manual enclosed.
ATTENTION AFTER USE
Drain water after use
1
After use, remove the drain plug at the bottom and pour water
from the suction/discharge ports so that the remaining sand
is forced out of the pump. If the pump is used to transfer
muddy water over a long period of time, a large volume of
sand will be piled up in the pump casing, making it difficult to remove
the front cover. Therefore, clean the inside the pump periodically.
CAUTION
2
Long storage
Water inside may freeze at below 0 in winter and may damage pump.
After use, drain water from drain plug before storing.
Discharge fuel in fuel tank and carburetor completely. Unused fuel in
tank (if kept more than 30days) may cause engine failure.
*Please refer to Engine Operation Manual.
Drain
Do not smoke as fuel is highly flammable.
CAUTION
Unused fuel must not remain in the tank for long term
storage. Unused fuel may cause future engine failure.
