Be careful how you store this pump
Date:February 4, 2010
For starters, I love using this pump. Easily mounts to your PTO but make sure it clears your right side draw bar.
I use this pump with a 300 gallon tank, all 1 1/4" hose and a fire nozzle. Plenty of pressure and GPM.
Where you have to be careful with this pump is storing it. After you take it off of your tractor, make sure all of the water is flushed out of it. Once its cleared out, either run oil in it to coat the internals or straight anti-freeze. This will prevent the internals from corroding. You'll know if you didn't do an adequate job as soon as you engage the pto and no water comes out - ask me how i know. I now store my pump with anti-freeze always in it.
For a no hassle version of this pump, spend the money and get the stainless steel one.
