Rapid retraction (also known as kickback) of the engine recoil starter cord will pull your
hand and arm towards the engine faster than you can let go of the handle resulting in
sprains, broken bones, lacerations, and/or traumatic amputations. Kickback is caused
by damage to the engine crankshaft key, compression release failure, and/or improper
starting techniques. To avoid kickback follow the appropriate maintenance schedule,
starting instructions, and have repair work done by an authorized service center.
RAPID RETRACTION
Turning o the water supply to your pump with the engine running will damage the pump.
Damage caused by running the pump without water is not covered under warranty. To
avoid this hazard always turn o the engine before shutting o the water supply.
