Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a

Northland Products, Waterboy Transporter. Your

Waterboy can provide years of reliable service with only minor care and maintenance.

Waterboy Transporters are covered by a limited

1 year warranty. These units are not intended for transporting potable water

1

When calling with any questions about your

Waterboy, or when purchasing accessories, please have your VIN number available. This is located on the tag attached to the left of the center front frame rail.

Your Waterboy VIN#_________________

Before Using Your Waterboy

We recommend that the following items be checked before using your Waterboy Transporter

1. Brake actuator fluid level(Hydraulic brake units only). Remove the master cylinder cap and fill the reservoir to 3/4 full with DOT-3 or DOT-4 brake fluid. Fig. 3. Consult the Titan service manual for further information.

2. For electric brake system questions, see the “THE ENGAGER” service instructions in section 6 of the manual.

3. Tire pressure. ST205/75D15 tire pressure cold is 50 PSI. Always check tires for cracking due to environmental exposure. Consult a tire professional if you have any questions.

4. Pump engine oil should be checked before each use. Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil of

API service class SE or higher grade. For further information consult the manufacturers service manual for your specific engine (Robin, Honda, etc.).

2

5. Proper operation of lights. Repair or replace damaged or worn out components as required.

6. Check pump engine fuel level. Use only 87 octane (unleaded) or better.

7. Check that all hoses are securely fastened and connections tight. Close hatch while traveling.

8. Rotate the tongue jack to the travel position once the hitch has been attached to the tow vehicle.

9. For pump information consult the supplied Grainger or Multiquip manual.

9. Do not allow children to play on, around,

or in

your Waterboy.

10. Limit speed while transporting to 45 mph.

Operation

3.1 Filling your Waterboy

Your Waterboy can be filled by connecting to a pressurized water supply, drafting from a pond or other static water source, or by simply pouring through the manhole.

Fig. 4 shows the standard hose configuration.

4. Before attempting to start pump engine, remove the cap from the pump priming hole and fill the pump housing with water. Reinstall cap and be sure it is tight before starting engine. Fig. 1

5. Open tank valve by turning counterclockwise so it aligns with the transporter body.

6. Start pump engine. There will be a several minute wait while the pump self-primes.

Water level can be observed through the tank material. Turn off engine when tank is full. When finished filling, turn tank valve 1/4 turn clockwise, Fig. 8. This will provide app. 550 gallons.

3.1.2 Connecting to a pressurized water supply.

1. Connecting and filling the tank from a pressurized supply does not require use of the pump and engine.

2. Locate the fill connection on the right rear of the tank and attach the fill hose. Fig. 9

3. This connection is designed to break away if the transporter is driven away with the hose still connected.

Be sure safety strap is connected.
