To start the MULTIQUIP MQ-D206H 2 Inch Diaphragm Pump with a Honda engine, please follow these steps:
1. Place the engine fuel valve lever to the "ON" position.
2. Move the throttle lever about 1/3 of the way toward the fast position.
3. If starting a cold engine, place the choke lever in the "OPEN" position. If starting a warm engine or the temperature is warm, place the choke lever in the "CLOSED" position.
4. Place the engine ON/OFF switch in the "ON" position.
5. Grasp the starter grip and slowly pull it out. Pull the starter grip briskly and smoothly for starting.
If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever to the "CLOSED" position. If the engine has not started, repeat the steps above.
Before the pump is placed into operation, run the engine for several minutes. Check for fuel leaks and any noises that may indicate a loose component.
To begin pumping, place the throttle lever in the "RUN" position. The pump speed can be regulated with the engine throttle control from full volume (65 strokes per minute) to about 40 strokes per minute for lesser volume seepage. The smoothest operation can be determined by trying to pump at several speeds. Limit the maximum speed to 65 strokes per minute of the diaphragm (2,800 RPM engine speed).
For normal shutdown, move the throttle lever to the IDLE position and run the engine for three minutes at low speed. After the engine cools, turn the engine ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position and place the fuel shut-off lever in the "OFF" position.
In case of an emergency shutdown, move the throttle lever quickly to the "IDLE" position and place the engine ON/OFF switch in the "OFF" position.
Please refer to the user manual for more detailed instructions and safety precautions.
