SECTION 3 - SAFETY WARNINGS
Conventions used in this manual include:
WARNING indicates a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in serious injury
or death.
NOTE signifies an important point of
information.
Read this manual thoroughly before operating your
Hydra-Power PowerPack. Failure to follow instructions
could result in serious injury or death.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless, poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide will
cause nausea, dizziness, fainting or death. If you start to
feel dizzy or weak, get to fresh air immediately.
Operate Hydra-Power PowerPack outdoors only in a well
ventilated area.
DO NOT operate the Hydra-Power PowerPack inside any
building, including garages, basements, crawlspaces and
sheds, enclosure or compartment.
DO NOT allow exhaust fumes to enter a confined area
through windows, doors, vents or other openings.
Rotating parts can entangle hands, feet, hair, clothing and/
or accessories.
Traumatic amputation or severe laceration can result.
Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.
Tie up long hair and remove jewelry.
Operate equipment with guards in place.
DO NOT wear loose-fitting clothing, dangling drawstrings or
items that could become caught.
Sparks can result in fire or electrical shock. When servicing
the Hydra-Power PowerPack:
Disconnect the spark plug wire and place it where it cannot
contact the plug. DO NOT check for spark with the plug
removed. Use only approved spark plug testers.
Running engines produce heat. Severe burns can occur
on contact. Combustible material can catch fire on contact.
DO NOT touch hot surfaces.Avoid contact with hot exhaust
gases. Allow equipment to cool before touching. Maintain at
least three feet of clearance on all sides to ensure ade-
quate cooling. Maintain at least five feet of clearance from
combustible materials.
Fuel and fuel vapors are highly flammable and extremely
explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death. Unintentional startup can result in entanglement,
traumatic amputation or laceration.
When adding or removing fuel: Turn the Hydra-Power
PowerPack off and let it cool for at least two minutes before
removing the fuel cap. Loosen the cap slowly to relieve
pressure in the tank. Only fill or drain fuel outdoors in a
well-ventilated area. DO NOT pump gas directly into the
Hydra-Power PowerPack at the gas station. Use an ap-
proved container to transfer the fuel to the Hydra-Power
PowerPack. DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.Always keep fuel
away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other
sources of ignition.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes while fueling the Hy-
dra-Power PowerPack.
When starting the Hydra-Power PowerPack engine:
DO NOT attempt to start a damaged engine.
Make certain that the gas cap, air filter, spark plug, fuel
lines and exhaust system are properly in place.
Allow spilled fuel to evaporate fully before attempting to
start the engine.
Make certain that the Hydra-Power PowerPack is resting
firmly on level ground.
When operating the Hydra-Power PowerPack:
DO NOT move or tip the Hydra-Power PowerPack or allow
fuel or oil to spill.
When transporting or servicing the Hydra-Power Pow-
erPack:
Make certain that the fuel shutoff valve is in the off position
and the fuel tank is empty.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
When storing the Hydra-Power PowerPack:
Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,heat and
other sources of ignition.

structions
Quick Connectors
Quick connectors come attached to both hoses and
also to the outflow and inflow ports of the Hydra-Pow-
er PowerPack unit.
Quick connectors are provided for the drive motor
connection, however, the fittings, nipples, bushings,
etc. required to attach quick connects to drive motor
ARE NOT INCLUDED.
Due to the large number of drive motor connection
combinations which exist (size, thread type, etc.) it is
the customer’s responsibility to purchase these drive
motor to quick connect pipe fittings separately. Quick
connectors are female, 1/2 inch, NPT threaded.
FILL HYDRAULIC OIL RESERVOIR
Hydraulic oil recommendation: all purpose, pe-
troleum based hydraulic oil, ISO Grade 32. Normal
operating oil conditions: 37-54C/100-130F. Do not
operate at oil temperatures above 85C/185F
NOTE: It is recommended to check Hydraulic Flu-
id Levels after every 15 hours of operation.
1) Remove filter as-
sembly by removing the
two 3/8 cap screws as
shown.
2) Lift and remove filter
assembly. Set assem-
bly aside.
3) Fill oil reservoir. Approximately 15 gallons of fluid
will be required.
3) Replace filter assembly.
4) Replace cap screws. Be careful to not over tighten
cap screws.
CHECK ENGINE OIL
The Hydra-Power PowerPack is shipped with full
crankcase oil level. Before starting engine, it is a
good practice to check engine oil level.
CAUTION: Any attempt to crank or start the engine
before it has been properly filled with the recommend-
ed oil will result in equipment failure. Refer to engine
owner’s manual and follow oil and fuel recommenda-
tions and instructions.
NOTE: Check oil often during engine break–in. Refer
to engine owner’s manual for recommendations.
Thoroughly read owner’s manual for 13 HP electric
start engine. Follow instructions for operation and
maintenance of gas powered engine.
ADD FUEL
Regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of
87 and no more than 10% ethanol is preferred. Never
use an E85 fuel or a mixture of oil and gasoline
designated for two cycle engines. Utilizing a high-
er grade premium fuel will not yield any increase
in power output or improved performance.
PRE-USE INSPECTION
Check Hydra-Power PowerPack for any engine oil or
hydraulic oil leaks. Check all fluid levels. Add fluids if
necessary.
IMPORTANT: TOAVOID DAMAGE TO ENGINE AND
HYDRA-POWER POWERPACK PUMP DO NOT AT-
TEMPT TO START HYDRA-POWER POWERPACK
ENGINE BEFORE HOSES ARE CONNECTED TO
THE HYDRA-POWER POWERPACK UNIT AND THE
HYDRAULIC DRIVE MOTOR.

flat, level surface.
2) Connect all hoses to both the power pack and drive
motor before starting engine.
3) Make sure drive motor is in the neutral position.
4) Move the black fuel valve to the “ON” position.
5) Move the gray choke lever left to the “CHOKE”
position.
NOTE: The choke may not be needed if the engine is
warm or the air temperature is high.
6) Move throttle lever slightly to the left.
7) Turn ignition key which acti-
vates electric start. (If battery
is dead, pull the starter cord
slowly until resistance is felt
and then pull rapidly.)
8) Do not over-choke. As the engine warms, gradual-
ly move the choke lever to the open position (to the

Temperature gauge is located on side of oil reservoir
tank. Normally operating oil conditions: 37-54C /
100-130F. Do not operate at oil temperatures
above 85C / 185F
Stopping the Engine

2. Allow the Hydra-Power PowerPack engine to run at
no-load for several minutes to stabilize internal tem-
peratures of the engine and pump.
3. Turn the Fuel Valve to the “OFF” position.
4. Let the engine run until fuel starvation has stopped
the engine. This usually takes a few minutes.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.
Important: Always ensure that the Fuel Valve and the
Engine Switch are in the “OFF” position when the
engine is not in use.
NOTE: If the engine will not be used for a period of
two (2) weeks or longer, please see the Storage sec-
tion below for proper engine and fuel storage.

dra-Power PowerPack.
Long Term Hydra-Power PowerPack Storage
1. Add a properly formulated fuel stabilizer to the tank.
2. Be certain to connect a hydraulic device or use one
hose as a by-pass device. NOTE: Engine will not
start if hydraulic fluid is not able to cycle through the
pump and return to the oil reservoir.
3. Run the Hydra-Power PowerPack for a few minutes
so the treated fuel cycles through the fuel system and
carburetor.
4. Turn the fuel valve to the “Off” position.
5. Let the Hydra-Power PowerPack run until fuel
starvation has stopped the engine. This usually takes
a few minutes.

pletely before cleaning and storage.
7. Clean the Hydra-Power PowerPack according to
the maintenance section.
8. Change the oil.
9. Remove the spark plug and pour about 1⁄2 ounce
of oil into the cylinder. Crank the engine slowly to
