3. CHECK ENGINE OIL (See Fig.
Before checking or refilling engine oil, be sure the engine is located on stable, level surface and stopped.
Do not screw the oil gauge into the oil filler neck to check oil level. If the oil level is low, refill to the upper level with the following recommended oil.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil of API service class SF or higher grade.
Select the viscosity based on the air temperature at the time of operation as shown in the table. (See Fig.2

4. CHECK FUEL (See Fig.
WARNING
Do not refuel while smoking, near an open flame or other such potential fire hazards. Otherwise fire accident may occur.
Stop the engine and open the cap.
Incline the engine as fuel inlet upward, then refill fuel to
the upper level. Do not fill fuel too much.
Use unleaded automotive gasoline only.
Fuel Tank Capacity (This engine is 4-stroke gasoline engine). Refer to “8. SPECIFICATIONS” Page 10 for fuel tank capacity

1. STARTING (See Fig.
(1) Set the throttle lever to the idling position (L). (See Fig.3-q) (2) Set the stop switch to the position “ON”. (See Fig.3 (3) Close the choke lever. (See Fig.3
If the engine is cold or the ambient temperature is low, close the choke lever fully.
If the engine is warm or the ambient temperature is high, open the choke lever half-way, or keep it fully open.
(4) Push the primer pump 7 to 10 times to feed the fuel to
the carburetor. (See Fig.3
(5) Pull the starter handle slowly until resistance is felt. This
-
e)
is the “compression” point. Return the handle to its original position and pull swiftly. Do not pull out the rope all the way. After starting the engine, allow the starter handle to return to its original position while still holding the handle. (See Fig.3
(6) After starting the engine, gradually open choke by turning
the choke lever and finally keep it fully opened. Do not fully open the choke lever immediately when the engine is cold or the ambient temperature is low, because the engine may stop. (See Fig.3
-
t)
2. RUNNING (See Fig.
(1) After the engine starts, set the speed control lever at the
low speed position (L) and warm it up without load for a few minutes. (See Fig.4
(2) Gradually move the speed control lever toward the high
speed position (H) and set it at the required engine speed. (See Fig.4
Whenever high speed operation is not required, slow the engine down (idle) by moving the speed control lever to save fuel and extend engine life.
NOTE
If the engine is operated at upside down, white smoke may be exhausted from the muffler.

Page 13
3. STOPPING (See Fig.
(1) Set the speed control lever at the low speed position and
allow the engine to run at low speed for 2 or 3 minutes before stopping. (See Fig.5
(2) Set the stop switch to the position “OFF”. (See Fig.5
Do not stop the engine suddenly when it is running at
high speed.
(3) Pull the starter handle slowly and return the handle to its
original position when resistance is felt. This operation is necessary to prevent outside moist air from intruding into the combustion chamber. (See Fig.5

-
(See Fig.
(1) Clean off carbon deposits on the spark plug electrode
using a plug cleaner or wire brush.

WARNING Flame Prohibited
(1) When changing oil, stop the engine and loosen the drain
plug. Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and completely.
CAUTION
To prevent injury, pay attention to the hot oil. Make sure the fuel cap is tightly secured to avoid spillage.
(2) Re-install the drain plug before refilling oil.
OIL CAPACITY : 0.8 liter
(3) Refer to page 5 for the recommended oil.
Always use the best grade and clean oil. Contaminated oil, poor quality oil and shortage of oil cause damage to engine or shorten the engine life.
(4) Remove the oil gauge. Be cautious to place the oil gauge
in a place where it will not gather dirt, dust or other foreign matter. (See Fig.7
(5) Place a cloth or paper towel to the area around the oil
filler hole. (See Fig.7
(6) Remove the oil gauge, then tilt the engine and drain the
oil into a pan or other receptacle. (See Fig.7
(7) Put the engine on a level surface, then fill with the oil up to
the point of overflowing the filler neck. Pour the oil in from a squeeze bottle or other appropriate. (See Fig.7
(8) After filling the engine with oil, reinsert the oil gauge.
Ensure that the oil gauge is tight, as if it loosens later oil will leak out. (See Fig.7

(See Fig.7
Pull out the lower edge of the cover to remove the air cleaner cover. (See Fig.7
Place the choke lever to the fully closed position, taking care to ensure that dust and dirt are not allowed to enter the carburetor.
Remove the element, then clean it with a solution of warm water and a mild detergent, thoroughly drying it afterward. Install it in alignment with the lines as shown in illustration.
Wipe off any oil adhering to the area around the air cleaner cover and breather with a cloth.
After cleaning, reassemble the cleaner cover (insert the tab at the top first, then insert the bottom tab) and tighten the fixing bolt.

WARNING
Take extreme caution when replacing fuel hose ; gasoline is extremely flammable.
Replace the fuel hose every 2 years. If fuel leaks from fuel hose, replace the fuel hose immediately.
9. CHECKING BOLTS, NUTS AND SCREWS
Retighten loose bolts and nuts.
Check for fuel and oil leaks.
Replace damaged parts with new ones.
WARNING Flame Prohibited
In case the engine is not going to be used for more than 1 month, discharge fuel thoroughly from fuel tank and carburetor in order to prevent from hard starting and/or poor engine operation due to deteriorated fuel when you use the engine next time.
Pour out the fuel in the tank from its filler neck.
Push the primer pump of the carburetor until the fuel in it is thoroughly discharged.

7. EASY TROUBLESHOOTING
1. PUMP DOES NOT RUN .
Engine dose not start.
(See 7.-4 “4. WHEN ENGINE DOES NOT START”)
Sticking of impeller
(Disassemble and clean.)
2. PUMPING VOLUME IS SMALL.
Sucking air at suction side.
(Check piping at suction side.)
Drop off engine output
(Consult your nearest dealer.)
Breakage of mechanical seal.
(Consult your nearest dealer.)
High suction lift (Lower.)
Suction hose is too long or thin.
(Use a thick hose in minimum length.)
Leak of water from water passage.
(Stop leaking.)
Clogging of foreign substance in impeller.
(Disassemble and clean.)
Wear of impeller.
Strainer is clogged. (Clean.)
Engine speed is too low.
(Consult your nearest dealer.)
4. WHEN ENGINE DOES NOT START :
Perform the following checks before you take the pump to your Robin dealer. If you still have trouble after completing the checks, take the pump to your nearest Robin dealer.
WARNING
Before testing, carefully wipe off spilled fuel. Put the plug as far away from the spark plug hole
as possible. Ground the side of the electrode to any engine
ground.
(1) Is the engine switch set OK?
ww

-
(See Fig.
(2) Is there a strong spark across the electrode ?
Remove the spark plug and connect it to the plug cap.
Pull the starter handle while grounding spark plug against engine body.
■Try with a new spark plug if the spark is weak or there is
no spark.
The ignition system is faulty if there is no spark with a
new spark plug.

3. PUMP DOES NOT SELFPRIME.
Suction of air at suction side.
(Check piping at suction side.)
Insufficient priming water inside pump casing
(Prime fully.)
Imperfect tightening of drain plug.
(Tighten the plugs completely.)
Engine speed is too low.
(Consult your nearest dealer.)
Sucking air from mechanical seal.
(Consult your nearest dealer.)
(3) Is there enough compression?
Pull the starter handle slowly and check if resistance is
felt.
■If little force is required to pull the starter handle, check if
the spark plug is tightened firmly.
■If the spark plug is loose, tighten it.
(4) Is the spark plug wet with fuel?
Choke (close choke lever) and pull the starter handle five
or six times. Remove the plug and check if its electrode is wet. If the electrode is wet, fuel is well supplied to your engine.
When the electrode is dry, check where the fuel stops.
(Check the fuel intake of the carburetor and fuel filter intake.)
In case the engine does not start with well supplied fuel,
try using fresh fuel.
