4 Operation
4.1 Preparing the Machine for First Use
1. Make sure all loose packaging materials have been removed from the machine.
2. Check the machine and its components for damage. If there is visible damage,
do not operate the machine! Contact your Wacker Neuson dealer immediately
for assistance.
3. Take inventory of all items included with the machine and verify that all loose
components and fasteners are accounted for.
4. Attach component parts not already attached.
5. Add fluids as needed and applicable, including fuel, engine oil, and battery acid.
6. Move the machine to its operating location.
4.2 Hoses and Clamps
Guidelines Follow the guidelines below for hoses and clamps.
■ Use only noncollapsible hoses for the suction side of the pump.
Note: Suction and discharge hoses are available from Wacker Neuson. Contact
your nearest dealer for more information.
■ Use two clamps for connecting suction hoses to the inlet coupling of the pump.
Note: This connection is important. Even a small air leak on the suction side of
pump will prevent the pump from priming.
■ For other hose connections, one T-bolt or worm-gear type clamp is usually
sufficient to hold hoses in place. In some cases, slight variances in hose
diameters may make it necessary to add more clamps in order to maintain tight
connections.
