5. Assembly of the device
Installation of the suction line
Use a standard hose and the hose connection with hose clamp (15;16), as supplied for
the pump. The suction line must be reinforced with a stiff wall or wire mesh. Do not use
a hose that is smaller than the suction mouth (11) of the pump. The suction line should
only be as long as necessary. The pumping performance is best when the pump is as
close to
the water level as possible and the hoses are short.
Use a hose clamp to fix the hose connection to the suction line to avoid leakage air and
suction power loss. Make sure that the seal (14) of the hose connection is in good
condition.
Install the filter screen (17; supplied) at the other end of the suction line and fasten it
with a hose clamp. The filter screen ensures that the pump is not clogged or damaged
by foreign matter. Attach the hose connection to the suction mouth (11) of the pump.
Installation of the pressure line
Use a standard hose and hose connector with a hose clamp, as supplied for the pump.
It is best to use a short hose with a large diameter, reducing fluid friction and improving
pumping performance. A long or thin hose increases fluid friction and reduces pumping
capacity.
Tighten the hose clamp firmly to prevent the outlet hose from slipping under pressure.
Checking the filling level of the gasoline/oil mixture
Open the fuel cap and check the fuel level. Fill up with gasoline
if the fuel level is low.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling gasoline. Switch off the engine and keep heat sources, sparks, and open
flames away. Only handle fuel outdoors. Wipe up spilt fuel immediately. Top up fuel in a
well-ventilated area before starting the engine. If the engine is hot, let it cool down. Fill
up with fuel carefully so that no gasoline overflows. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Fill the
tank to about 25mm below the rim to leave enough gas space to expand. Depending on
the operating conditions, it may be necessary to reduce the fuel level. After refuelling,
close the fuel filler cap firmly. Never refuel inside a building where petrol fumes can
come into contact with naked flames or sparks. Keep gasoline away from the ignition
flames of devices, grills, electrical appliances, power tools, etc. Spilt fuel is not only a

Original User Manual FUXTEC FX-WP series_en
11
fire risk but also environmental pollution. Wipe up spilt fuel immediately.
NOTE
Gasoline can damage paint and plastics. Take care not to spill gasoline when filling the
fuel tank. The warranty does not cover damage caused by fuel spillage.
FUEL AND 2-STROKE OIL
Use unleaded gasoline with 2-stroke engine oil in a 40:1 ratio. During the first few
operations, a mixing rate of 25:1 can be selected to lubricate all device parts optimally.
WARNING: Never use pure gasoline in your device. This will cause permanent engine
damage and voids the manufacturer's warranty for this product. Never use a fuel
mixture that has been stored for more than 90 days.
WARNING: It must be a first-class oil for 2-stroke air-cooled devices.
FUEL MIXTURE
Mix fuel with 2-stroke oil in a particular container. Please note
the mixture table on the following page for the correct ratio of fuel to oil. Shake the tank
to ensure complete mixing.
WARNING: Lack of lubrication excludes the liability of the device manufacturer.
Gasoline and oil must be mixed in a 40:1 ratio.
Recommended fuel
It is recommended to use unleaded gasoline with an octane number of 90 # or higher to
reduce carbon deposition in the combustion chamber. Do not use old or dirty gasoline.
Keep the fuel tank dust-free and avoid water getting into the tank. Sometimes overload
will cause misfiring, which is normal.
If the backfires are heard under the average load, we recommend changing the
gasoline. If the misfire is still present afterwards, please contact an authorized
workshop.
