  • Page 5: Safety Instruction

    SAFETY INSTRUCTION To ensure safe operation Honda water pump is designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to in- structions. Read and understand the Owner’s Manual be- fore operating the water pump. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment dam- age.
  • Page 6 To ensure safe operation Always make a pre-operation inspection (page ) before you start the engine. You may prevent an accident or equipment damage. For safety, never pump flammable or corrosive liquids such as gasoline or acid. Also, to avoid pump corrosion, never pump sea water, chemical solutions, or caustic liquids such as used oil, wine, or milk.

  • Page 7: Safety Label Locations

    These labels warn you of potential hazards that can cause serious inju- ry. Read the labels and safety notes and precautions described in this manual carefully. If a label comes off or becomes hard to read, contact your Honda deal- er for a replacement. OPERATOR CAUTION [For European types]...

  • Page 11: Pre-Operation For Starting

    PRE-OPERATION FOR STARTING Connect the suction hose. Use commercially available hose, hose connector, and hose bands. The suction hose must be of reinforced, noncollapsible construction. Suction hose length should not be longer than necessary, as pump performance is best when the pump is not far above the water level. Self-priming time is also proportional to hose length.
  • Page 12 Connect the discharge hose. Use a commercially available hose, hose connector, and hose band. A short, large-diameter hose is most efficient. Long or small-diameter hose increases fluid friction and reduces pump output. Tighten the hose band securely to prevent the hose from disconnecting under high pressure.
  • Page 13 Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean. Insert the filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw it in. If the level is low, fill to the top of the oil filler neck with the recom- mended oil.
  • Page 14 Check the fuel level. Use automotive unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of 91 or higher (a Pump Octane Number of 86 or higher). Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank. Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions.
  • Page 15 Gasolines containing alcohol If you decide to use a gasoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be sure it’s octane rating is at least as high as that recommended by Honda. There are two types of ‘‘gasohol’’: one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do not use gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol.
  • Page 16 Check the air cleaner element. Remove the wing nut, washer and air cleaner cover. Check the element for dirt or obstruction. Clean the element if necessary (see page AIR CLEANER COVER AIR CLEANER ELEMENT Never run the engine without the air cleaner. Rapid engine wear will result from contaminants such as dust and dirt being drawn through the carburetor into the engine.

  • Page 17: Starting The Engine

    STARTING THE ENGINE Turn the fuel valve lever to the ON position. Move the choke lever to the CLOSED position. Do not use the choke if the engine is warm or the ambient temperature is high. CHOKE LEVER FUEL VALVE LEVER CLOSED CLOSED...
  • Page 18 Move the throttle lever slightly to the left. SLOW FAST THROTTLE LEVER Pull the starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then pull briskly in the direction of the arrow as shown below. Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter.

  • Page 19: High Altitude Operation

    High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate the pump at altitudes higher than 1,500 m (5,000 feet) above sea level, have your authorized Honda dealer perform these carburetor modifications. Even with suitable carburetor jetting, engine horsepower will decrease approximately 3.5 % for each 300 m (1,000 foot) increase in altitude.

  • Page 20: Operation

    OPERATION Never use the pump for muddy water, rejected oil, wine, etc. After starting the engine, move the throttle lever to the FAST position for self-priming, and check pump output. Pump output is controlled by adjusting engine speed. Moving the throttle lever in the FAST direction will increase pump output, and moving the throttle lever in the SLOW direction will decrease pump output.

  • Page 21: Stopping The Engine

    STOPPING THE ENGINE To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the engine switch to the OFF position. Under normal conditions, use the following procedure. Move the throttle lever fully to the right. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position. THROTTLE LEVER ENGINE SWITCH SLOW...

  • Page 22: Maintenance

    If the pump has been used with sea water, etc., clean it with fresh water immediately afterward to reduce corrosion or remove sediment. Use genuine Honda parts or their equivalent for maintenance or repair. Replacement parts which are not of equivalent quality may damage the pump.

  • Page 23: Maintenance Schedule

    Service more frequently when used in dusty areas. These items should be serviced by your servicing dealer, unless you have the proper tools and are mechanically proficient. Refer to the Honda shop manual for service procedures. For commercial use, log hours of operation to determine proper maintenance...
  • Page 24 Install the drain plug securely using a new sealing washer. Refill with the recommended oil (see page ) to the specified level. OIL CAPACITY: WB20XT: 0.56 L (0.59 US qt, 0.49 lmp qt) WB30XT: 0.58 L (0.61 US qt, 0.51 lmp qt)
  • Page 25 Air cleaner service A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor. To prevent carburetor malfunction, service the air cleaner regularly. Service more frequently when operating the pump in extremely dusty areas. Never use gasoline or low flash point solvents for cleaning. They are flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
  • Page 26 Spark plug service Recommended spark plug: BPR6ES(NGK) W20EPR-U(DENSO) To ensure proper engine operation, the spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits. Disconnect the spark plug cap and then remove the spark plug with the spark plug wrench. If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot.
  • Page 27 Check that the spark plug washer is in good condition, and thread the spark plug in by hand to prevent cross-threading. If installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the spark plug seats to compress the washer. If reinstalling a used spark plug, tighten 1/8 1/4 turn after the spark plug seats to compress the washer.
  • Page 28 Spark arrester maintenance (optional part) The muffler becomes very hot during operation and remains hot for a while after stopping the engine. Be careful not to touch the muffler while it is hot. Allow it to cool before proceeding. Remove the two 8 mm nuts, and remove the muffler. Remove the four 5 mm self-tapping screws, and remove the muffler protector from the muffler.

  • Page 29: Transporting/Storage

    TRANSPORTING/STORAGE To avoid severe burns or fire hazards, let the engine cool before transporting the pump or storing it indoors. When transporting the pump, turn the fuel valve to the OFF position, and keep the pump level to prevent fuel spillage. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ignite.
  • Page 30 Change the engine oil. Remove the spark plug, and pour about a tablespoon of clean engine oil into the cylinder. Crank the engine several revolutions to distribute the oil, then reinstall the spark plug. Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt. Continue pulling until the notch on the starter pulley aligns with the hole on the recoil starter (see illustration below).

  • Page 31: Troubleshooting

    Is the spark plug in good condition? Remove and inspect the spark plug. Clean, readjust gap and dry the spark plug. Replace it if necessary. If the engine still does not start, take the pump to an authorized Honda dealer.
