In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: After attaching the garden hose, head to the faucet and turn on the water. Check your manual to see if it specifies a water pressure setting. Many manufacturers recommend setting it to about half pressure. Do not start the engine before turning on the water. Make sure the gearshift or throttle is in the neutral position. The engine needs to be in neutral to start and should stay in neutral while you run it. If you need to put the engine in gear to test the propeller's function, use caution and make sure no people or objects go near the moving propeller. . Depending on your engine type, insert the key or pull the starter to engage the engine. For some electric engines, you'll also need to push and release a button after turning the key. You should see a stream of water flowing out of the top of the motor. If there's no overflow stream, there's something wrong with your water pump. If there's no stream, turn off the engine immediately. Insert a thin wire into the outflow tube to check for debris. Start the engine again to see if that solved the problem. If there's still no outflow, you will likely need to have a mechanic replace your water pump.
Summary: Turn on the water. Put the engine in neutral. Start the engine Make sure the motor's water pump is working.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Some varnishes, such as those that come in a spray can, do not need any preparation; other types of varnishes should be thinned for the first coat. This helps seal the wood and prepare it for the proceeding coats. The rest of the coats do not to be thinned. If you are using an oil-based varnish, thin it with a paint thinner, such as turpentine. Use one part varnish to one part thinner. If you are using a water-based or acrylic-based varnish, thin it with water instead. Use one part varnish to one part water. Use a flat paintbrush or foam applicator to apply the varnish to the wood. Use long, even strokes, and work along the wood grain. Let this first coat dry for 24 hours. If you are using a spray on varnish, hold the can 6 to 8 inches away from the surface and spray on a light, even coat. Let it dry according to the manufacturer's recommendations. After you have applied the initial coat of thinned varnish, you will need to smooth it out. You can do this by buffing the surface of the varnished wood with 280-grit sandpaper, and then using a dry cloth to wipe away any dust of debris. Make sure that you wipe down your work space with a damp cloth to get rid of any dust caused by the sanding. Make sure that you clean your brush with paint thinner (if you are using an oil-based varnish) or water (if you are using a water-based varnish). Using a clean brush or a new foam applicator, apply the varnish to the wooden piece. Once again, make sure that you are brushing along the wood grain. You do not have to thin this layer. Wait 24 hours for this layer to dry. If you are using a spray on varnish, you can spray on another coat. Make sure to keep the can 6 to 8 inches away from the surface, and spray on a single, light coat. If you spray the varnish on too thickly, you may end up with puddles, drips, and runs. Once the second coat of varnish has dried, sand it gently with a fine-grit sandpaper, such as 320-grit. Let the varnish dry 24 hours before applying the next coat, and remember to clean your work space of any dust or dirt caused by the sanding. Apply 2 to 3 more coats of varnish. Remember to let the varnish dry between coats, and to sand and wipe the varnish clean before applying more varnish. Always work along the grain when applying and sanding the varnish. When you get to the last coat, do not sand it. You can continue working with 320-grit sandpaper, or move up to 400-grit. For optimal results, consider waiting 48 hours before applying the final coat. Varnish will typically need some time to finish curing. To prevent ruining the varnish, leave your wooden piece some place where it will not be disturbed. Some varnishes finish curing with 24 or 48 hours, while others need as much as 5 or 7 days. Some varnishes require 30 days to finish curing. Refer to the instructions on the can for more specific drying and curing times.
Summary: Prepare the varnish for the initial coat, if necessary. Apply the first coat of thinned varnish and let it dry. Sand the first coat and wipe it with a damp cloth. Apply the next coat of varnish and allow it to dry. Sand the second coat and wipe it clean with damp cloth. Continue applying more varnish and sanding between coats. Wait for the varnish to finish curing.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The best time to prune your junipers is in the winter or early spring. In the springtime, it's easier to see the general shape of the tree and cut the branches without having to worry about accidentally harming new growth. Winter pruning is a great option because it ensures that the plant is pruned before new growth begins. It's important to work before new growth begins so that you don't have to worry about damaging new branches. This will give you the freedom to trim as needed to attain the perfect shape. After you've corrected the shape of the bush in the spring, you may notice that the juniper grows faster and wider during the summer. You can re-shape the tree at any time during the summer. Junipers can be trimmed any time from spring until the first freeze of the year. When working with the tree, be careful not to cut the new growth growing from the junctions. The new growth will be soft, light green, and pliable compared to the hardwood of the old growth. Always be gentle when touching new growth, as it's extremely delicate. If you are working during the springtime, there likely won't be much new growth to avoid.
Summary:
Prune junipers annually to correct their shape. Trim the bushes as needed in the summer if the tree loses its shape. Do not trim new growth during the summer.
