BEFORE STARTING

Operating instructions
Petrol-powered garden pumps are exclusively designed to pump water and neutral liquids with temperature corresponding to the surrounding temperature.
OPERATING BY PERSONS UNDER 18 IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN.

ATTENTION! Keep watch over the work area: never aim the water jet at people or animals. Stop the engine
immediately if anybody is getting closer.

CAUTION ABOUT THE WORK AREA!

• Never work in the vicinity of power lines or buildings.
• Only work if the ambient lighting conditions are sufficient for clear visibility.
• Take particular care when using the protective equipment as some personal protective equipment may limit your ability to hear the sounds indicating danger (prompts, signals, warnings etc.).
• Pay great attention to working on slope and inhomogeneous terrain.

FORBIDDEN USE
It’s EXPRESSLY FORBIDDEN to pump the following substances:

• All kinds and types of paints
• All kinds and types of solvents and thinners
• All kinds and types of fuels and lubricants
• All kinds and types of gases or liquefied propane
• All kinds and types of flammable liquids
• Food liquids designed for animals and people
• Liquids containing solid granules or particles
• Mixtures of several chemicals incompatible with one another
• Liquids with temperatures over 40°C
• All products not corresponding to the intended machine use
• Liquids containing anti-parasitic agents, herbicides or pesticides

CAUTION: Petrol-powered garden pumps are not to be used as safety equipment to extinguish fires. Do not pump liquids in containers that might explode due to overpressure.

FUEL HANDLING RULES

• To reduce the risk of fi re or burns, handle the fuel with care. It’s extremely inflammable.
• Mix and store the fuel only in a container approved for the given fuel type.
• Mix the fuel outdoors where there is no risk of sparks or fi re occurrence.
• Before refilling the fuel, put the machine on the ground, stop the engine and wait until it has cooled down.
• Loosen the fuel tank cap slowly to allow the overpressure to release and avoid the fuel spilling.
• When refilled, tighten the fuel tank cap firmly. Vibrations may lead to the cap loosening and fuel leakage.
• Carefully wipe spilt fuel, if any. Before starting the engine, please go at least 3m away from the fuel refilling location.
• Never under any circumstances attempt to burn spilt fuel.
• Store the fuel in a cool, dry and well-ventilated location.
• Do not store the fuel in places with dry foliage, straw, paper etc.
• Store the engine unit and the fuel in places where the fuel vapours do not come into contact with sparks, naked flame, water heaters, heating boilers, electric motors, switches, ranges, ovens etc.
• Never remove the fuel tank cap while the engine is running.
• Do not use the fuel for cleaning.
• Take care to avoid the fuel coming into contact with clothing parts.

PREPARING THE FUEL MIXTURE

WARNING!

• Never refill the fuel in the tank in a closed and non-ventilated space.
• Do not refill the fuel in the vicinity of a naked flame or a sparking source.
• Do not overfill the tank. Before starting the engine, make sure that all spilt fuel is wiped away.
• DO NOT REFILL THE FUEL if the engine is hot.

For this type of two-stroke engine, a mixture of unleaded petrol and two- stroke oil in 25:1 ratio is used.

ATTENTION! Fuel mixture in ratio other than 25:1 may lead to the engine damage. Make sure that this fuel mix is mixed correctly.
When mixing petrol with two-stroke oil, please use only petrol free of ANY ETHANOL OR METHANOL (alcohol types).
Please use only quality petrol having an octane number of 95 or higher. This will help prevent possible damage to the fuel system and other parts of the engine.
We recommend the use of the calibrated container supplied with the brush cutter for mixing the fuel mix. DO NOT MIX PETROL AND OIL DIRECTLY IN THE FUEL TANK.

Storing fuel
Only store fuel in a clean, safe and approved canister. Learn and adhere to local directives related to the type and storage of canisters filled with fuel.

IMPORTANT
Two-stroke fuel may separate. Prior to every use, thoroughly shake the canister with fuel. Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect to consume within one month.

SETUP – INSTALLATION

• Make sure that the connections are properly sealed by tightening all the way in.
• Connect suction and discharge hose to the pump. Use clamps to fi x the hose to the connections

CAUTION: Do not replace original connections (supplied) for other ones of different material to avoid damage to the pump housing.

Suction hose
The hose must be firm and incompressible (such as spring reinforced)
The hose must be equipped with a suction strainer with a non-return valve. The strainer must be properly fixed with a clamp (fi g.4). This will prevent the hose from aeration and foreign particles from penetrating into the pump impeller

Filling
Place the pump as close to water as possible. Install the pump correctly (fi g. 5).
Fill the pump fully with water through the inlet orifice (fi g.6, point 1)

CAUTION: If the pump does not operate immediately or after more than 4 minutes, the likely cause is in partial fi lling of the suction hose or air intake. Recheck the condition of all sealings and tightening of connections. Refill the pump completely using the filling opening (fi g.6, point 1). To set the flow rate value (from min. to max.), use the carburettor throttle trigger (fi g.6, point 2).

ATTENTION! Never start the pump without water. This could lead to serious damage to the engine parts, rendering the warranty void immediately.

ATTENTION! Don’t exceed the maximum suction depth of 7m.

STARTING THE PUMP

PROCEDURES TO START AND STOP THE ENGINE
Starting a cold engine

1. Set the throttle trigger (fi g.7, point 1) approximately to halfway of its path.

2. Repeatedly push down the fuel primer bulb (3 to 5 presses), until the fuel gets to the carburettor. (Fig. 7, point 5)

3. Move the choke lever upwards to the “OFF” position (=air supply turned off, i.e. choke turned on). (Fig. 7, point 3)

4. Hold the pump on the ground with your left hand and pull the starting cord with your right hand (fi g.7, point 4), until the engine is given a spin (attempting to start up).

5. At this point, push the choke lever downwards to the “ON” position (=air supply turned on, i.e. choke turned off) and start the engine by repeatedly pulling on the starting cord.
   
   ATTENTION! Spinning the engine for too long with the choke lever in the OFF position will result in fl ooding of the engine and problems with starting it up.

6. Prior to starting work, leave the engine to warm up for a few minutes to get up to operating temperature.

Starting a warm engine

1. Set the throttle trigger (fi g.7, point 1) approximately to halfway of its path.
2. Pull on the handle of the starting cord until the engine starts up. DO NOT USE THE CHOKE!

ATTENTION! In the event that the fuel in the fuel tank was completely used up, after pouring in fuel, repeat the steps for STARTING A COLD ENGINE.

Speed control – pumping power control

• To control the engine speed along with the pump output, operate the throttle trigger (fi g.7, point 1)

Stopping the engine

• To stop the engine, press the STOP button (fi g.7, point 2).

WARNING!

The engine exhaust fumes contain chemical substances that are harmful to health. Never inhale these fumes. Always start the pump outside the building.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Machine maintenance

• Before each use:
  • Check that all nuts and bolts are tightened.
