SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

To safely realize the full potential of this pump, you need a complete
understanding of its operation and a certain amount of practice with its
controls.
Before operating the pump for the first time, please review the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION on page 5 and the chapter titled
BEFORE OPERATION.
For your safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an enclosed
area, such as a garage. Your engine's exhaust contains poisonous
carbon monoxide gas that can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and
cause illness or death.
Pump only fresh water that is not intended for human consumption.
Pumping flammable liquids, such as gasoline or fuel oils, can result in a
fire or explosion, causing serious injury. Pumping sea water, beverages,
acids, chemical solutions, or any other liquid that promotes corrosion
can damage the pump.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas that can build up to
dangerous levels in closed areas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can
cause unconsciousness or death.
Never run the engine in a closed, or
even partly closed area where
people may be present.
