Pre-Operating Instructions: Connecting Water Inlet Hose

Use commercially available hose, hose joint, and clamp. The water inlet hose must be of continuous structure and be rigid. The length of the hose should be no more than required. The effect of suction is greatest at shorter distances from the water surface. Suction time varies with the length of the water inlet hose. The strainer matching with the water pump should be mounted to the end of the water inlet hose with a hose clamp.

GASKET INLET HOSE CLAMP STRAINER

NOTICE:

• Before pumping, install the strainer securely to the end of the water inlet hose. This strainer will filtrate any impurity, which may produce a passage jam and damage impellers.
• Be sure to install the hose joint and clamp properly and tightly to prevent air leaks and pumping performance drops. A loose water inlet hose will decrease the water pump performance and self-suction ability.

Pre-Operating Instructions: Connecting Water Outlet Hose

Use commercially available hose, hose joint, and clamp. A short hose with a big diameter will provide the best performance. A long hose with a small diameter will increase flowing resistance and decrease the power output of the water pump.

Always Use Commerical Grade and Proper Size Hoses for Your Pump

GASKET INLET HOSE CLAMP STRAINER

NOTE: Tighten the hose clamp to keep from disengaging during operation under high pressure.

Maintenance (continued)

FUEL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE (continued):

(See diagram below) and either clean or replace the fuel filter element. Re-assemble the fuel filter element (refer to "Fuel Filter Element Assembly" diagram below).

USAGE IN HIGH ALTITUDE REGIONS:

In regions with high altitude, the standard carburetor produces overly dense combinations of fuel and air, which result in decreased engine performance and increased fuel consumption. To maintain high engine performance at high altitudes, install a high altitude carburetor main spray nozzle and re-adjust the adjusting screw for idle speed. For usage in regions with an altitude of over 4,527 ft (1380m), contact your dealer to replace the standard carburetor and make needed adjustments in advance. Even with a proper high altitude carburetor spray nozzle installed in the engine, the power output of the engine will drop about 3.5% with every 1000 ft (305m) increase in altitude. If the standard carburetor jets are not replaced and adjusted for usage in high altitude, the increased altitude effect will be even more severe.

NOTE: Usage of the water pump in regions with lower altitude than the high altitude carburetor spray nozzle is applicable may result in decrease of engine performance. The engine may become overheated and over-lean, creating a combination of fuel and air produced which may cause severe damage to the engine.

Troubleshooting

IF THE ENGINE WILL NOT START:

1. Check the ensure switches are in the "ON" position.
2. Check engine oil level. The unit possesses a low oil shutdown feature that will not allow your engine to start if the oil is below safe operating levels. This feature is installed to increase the lie of your engine and prevent engine damage. If oil level is low, fill to the full mark on dipstick. Refer to the Pre-Operating Instructions: Engine Oil Check section for exact oil type and amounts.
3. Check the fuel level to ensure adequate fuel. Add fuel if necessary.
4. Remove and inspect the spark plug for cleanliness and proper electrode gap. If needed, clean or replace the spark plug. Refer to Spark Plug Maintenance in the Maintenance section of the Owner's manual for proper procedure.
5. If the unit will still NOT start after performing the above checks, call our customer service line at Lifan Pump Pro®, Toll Free 1-866-471-7464 or take the unit to an authorized service center.

NOTE: Periodically, on the initial start-up or after the unit has been stored for a long period of time, the float for your "Low Oil Shutdown" system will stick to the bottom of the oil pan. Locate the two (2) wires to the low oil sensor diode (figure "Low Oil Sensor Diode" to the right) located on the side of the engine block. Unplug these wires and, only after ensuring the engine is full of oil, start the engine and allow it to run until warm (normally 20 minutes, as this will heat the oil and release the float on the low oil shutdown system). Then, re-plug the wires to the terminals on the low oil shutdown sending unit.

IF THE WATER PUMP WILL NOT PUMP:
