Installation:
The CS-155RG pump is configured for use with a Honda GX-160 gas engine (John Blue Part Number: 113798-01). The
pump can also be purchased assembled to the Honda engine (John Blue Part Number: CS-155RG-5H).
**Note that any plumbing must be supported so that its weight does not hang off of the pump – this will void the warranty.
Storage:
After use, flush the pump with a solution that will neutralize the fluid you have been pumping, and then drain. Use RV
Antifreeze for Storage.
Maintenance:
Inspect the seal reservoir fluid level using the sight window – the fluid level should be above the middle of the window. If
the fluid is dirty, drain the pump by vacuum or turning upside down, then replace with 50/50 premixed ethylene glycol
antifreeze. If fluid is cloudy, impeller side seal may be leaking.
