FAQ’s
Question: How long will the pump run on a tank of fuel?
Answer: That depends entirely on operating speed, but at full throttle you can expect around 90 minutes which could displace around 292309 L (64,299 Imp. gallons) (77,220 gallons U.S.) of water.
Question: How far will the pump "push" water?
Answer: This will depend on if there is an elevation involved in the “push;” however on a flat surface it will “push” up to 914.4 meters (3000 feet).
Question: What is the life expectancy of the motor?
Answer: Like anything this will depend entirely on how the motor is treated and if it gets proper maintenance (oil changes, spark plug change). In addition this will depend entirely on whether the pump is run continuously for weeks on end or whether it is run as required. Obviously too many variables come into play to answer appropriately.
Question: What type of oil is in the motor/transmission?
Answer: Full synthetic oil is recommended. Please consult the owners’ manual for recommendations on alternatives.
