Using this Brave trash pump is easy. First, make sure the pump is placed on a flat and stable surface. Connect the suction and discharge hoses to the appropriate ports. Prime the pump as it can self-prime up to 26 ft. Once it's primed, start the Honda GX200 engine. You can then start transferring water with solids up to 1-1/4 in. in diameter. Remember, the max temperature it can handle is 180F, so don't let it overheat. For maintenance, use the one-tool serviceability tool included. Check the mechanical seal regularly, and if there are any signs of wear, replace it. Keep the heavy-duty steel roll frame and strainer clean. The suction/discharge parts are removable and replaceable, so if they get damaged, you can easily swap them out. Also, the discharge port rotates in 90 increments, which can be adjusted according to your needs. If you want to move the pump around easily, consider getting the optional wheel kit.
