I was given a portable pump as partial trade for something. I’ve never used one before outside of fire department models. I don’t have a use for it and plan to either sell it to a neighbor or give it to a friend it if it doesn’t work.
Model is a Red Lion 6RLAG-2ST.
I haven’t attempted to start the engine yet. I remember someone once telling me not to do so unless the machine had a water load to suction.
Is that a myth or fact? A quick online search shows owners’ manuals seem to indicate to always start the pump with water. However I see some places people not mentioning water and just starting the engine, as I wish to do.
