MULTIQUIP MQ-D206H 2 Inch Diaphrapm Pump
DO NOT attempt to operate the pump until the Safety, General Information and
Inspection sections of this manual have been read and thoroughly understood.
This section is intended to assist the operator with the initial start-up of
the trash pump. It is extremely important that this section be read carefully
before attempting to use the pump in the field.
Starting the Engine (HONDA engine)
1. Place the engine fuel valve lever (Figure 8) to the “ON” position.
Figure 8. Engine Fuel Valve Lever (ON Position)
2. Move the throttle lever (Figure 9) away from the slow position, about 1/3
of the way toward the fast position.

3. Place the choke lever (Figure 10) in the “OPEN ” position if starting a cold engine.

position

NOTE:
Pump speed can be regulated with the engine throttle control from full volume, 65 strokes per pinute, to about 40 strokes per minute for lesser volume seepage.Smoothest operation can be determined by trying to pump at several speeds. Limit maximum speed to 65 strokes per minute of the diaphragm (2,800 RPM engine speed).
Stopping The Engine
Normal Shutdown
1. Move the throttle lever to the IDLE position (Figure 16) and run the
engine for three minutes at low speed

2. After the engine cools, turn the engine ON/OFF switch to the “OFF”
position (Figure 17).
