QP3TE — GENERAL INFORMATION APPLICATION The QP3TE Trash Pump is designed to be used for dewatering applications. Both the suction and discharge ports on the QP3TE trash pump use a 3-inch diameter opening, which allows the pump to pump at a rate of approximately 396 gallons/minute (gpm) or 1,500 liters/minute (lpm). Trash pumps are designed to purge air from the suction line and create a partial vacuum in the pump body.
QP3TE — PUMP COMPONENTS Figure 2 shows a typical application using the QP3TE Trash pump. Please note that this pump is intended for the removal of clean water and water containing some debris and solids. Maximum size of solids should not exceed 1.5 inch (38 mm) in diameter. DO NOT set strainer on bottom of water bed. Placing the strainer above the water bed will prevent the pump from drawing in excessive amounts of sand and foreign debris. Figure 2. QP3TE Pump Application 1.
QP3TE — REFUELING DANGER Adding fuel to the tank should be done only when the engine is stopped and has had an opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until the fuel residue has been completely wiped up, and the area surrounding the engine is dry. If pump is placed in a truck bed with a plastic liner, REMOVE pump from truck bed and place on ground (Figure 3) to refuel. The possibility of fire or explosion exists, due to static electricity.
QP3TE — BASIC ENGINE INITIAL SERVICING Figure 4. Engine Controls and Components The engine (Figure 4) must be checked for proper lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the ROBIN engine service manual for instructions and details for proper operation and servicing. 5. Throttle Lever – Used to adjust engine RPM speed (lever advanced forward SLOW, lever back toward operator FAST). 1. 6. Recoil Starter (pull rope) – Manual-starting method.
QP3TE — PRE-INSPECTION (ENGINE) CAUTION NEVER operate the pump in a confined area or enclosed area structure that does not provide ample free flow of air. 3. Insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it into the filler neck. Check the oil level shown on the dipstick. 4. If the oil level is low (Figure 6), fill to the edge of the oil filler hole with the recommended oil type (Table 5). Maximum oil capacity is 1.16 quarts (1.
QP3TE — PRE-SETUP (PUMP) Before Starting 1. Read safety instructions at the beginning of manual. NOTE 2. Place pump as near to water as possible, on a firm flat, level surface. 3. To prime pump, remove fill cap (Figure 2) and fill pump casing with water. If the pump casing is not filled with water before starting, it will not begin pumping. CAUTION Pump casing must be filled with water before using pump. Otherwise pump will not be able to begin pumping.
QP3TE — INITIAL START-UP (ENGINE) CAUTION 3. Place the choke lever (Figure 9) in the "CLOSED " position if starting a cold engine. DO NOT attempt to operate the pump until the Safety, General Information, and Inspection sections of this manual have been read and thoroughly understood. This section is intended to assist the operator with the initial start-up of the trash pump. It is extremely important that this section be read carefully before attempting to use the pump in the field.
QP3TE — INITIAL START-UP (ENGINE) 6. Grasp the starter grip (Figure 12) and slowly pull it out. The resistance becomes the hardest at a certain position, corresponding to the compression point. Pull the starter grip briskly and smoothly for starting. CAUTI CAUTION ALWAYS run engine at full speed while pumping. Stopping The Engine Normal Shutdown 1. Move the throttle lever to the IDLE position (Figure 15) and run the engine for three minutes at low speed. Figure 12. Starter Grip 7.
QP3TE — MAINTENANCE (PUMP) Adjusting Impeller Clearance Pump Vacuum Test CAUTION DO NOT attempt to start the engine unless the pump has previously been primed with water. Severe pump damage will occur if pump has not been primed. To perform the pump vacuum test do the following: 1. Remove the pump fill cap (Figure 2), and fill the pump with water. 2. Start the engine as outlined in the initial start-up section, and wait for the pump to begin pumping. 3.
QP3TE — MAINTENANCE (PUMP) NOTE Pressure reading may vary depending on altitude. See Tables 3 and 4 on page 12. Figure 18. Pump Vacuum Tester QP3TE TRASH PUMP — OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL— REV.
QP3TE — MAINTENANCE (ENGINE) Engine Maintenance Perform engine maintenance procedures as referenced by Table 6 below: Table 6. Engine Maintenance Schedule DESCRIPTION (3) OPERATION BEFORE CHECK X FIRST EVERY MONTH 3 MONTHS OR OR 10 HRS. 25 HRS. EVERY 6 MONTHS OR 50 HRS. EVERY YEAR OR 100 HRS. EVERY 2 YEARS OR 200 HRS.
QP3TE — MAINTENANCE (ENGINE) Maintenance Perform the engine maintenance procedures as indicated below: DAILY ■ Thoroughly remove dirt and oil from the engine and control area. Clean or replace the air cleaner elements as necessary. Check and retighten all fasteners as necessary. Check the spring box and bellows for oil leaks. Repair or replace as needed. WEEKLY ■ Remove the fuel filter cap and clean the inside of the fuel tank. ■ Remove or clean the filter at the bottom of the tank.
QP3TE — PREPARATION FOR LONG -TERM STORAGE Pump Storage For storage of the pump for over 30 days, the following is required: Drain the fuel tank completely. Run the engine until the fuel in the injection system is completely consumed. Completely drain used oil from the engine crankcase and fill with fresh clean oil, then follow the procedures described in the engine manual for engine storage. Remove the drain plug from the pump and drain out any water from left in the housing.
