Warm-up sets are whatever you need to get warmed up. There's not right or wrong IMO, except at the extremes (none or a dozen sets, for example.)
I'd at least feel out the weight with the pump sets. This is simply for safety to some degree, to make sure the machine is working, etc.
Also, PUMP set exercise selection is auto-regulated, so you want to pick the exercise that feels / works for you on that day. You might think a given exercise is a good one and then when you start it, find it just doesn't set well with you. (I'm never really for just jumping on a machine / exercise without a few feeler reps.)

cheers for the response Scott the book and forum are excellent and crammed full of info I've been watching vids on YouTube too for tips etc. I get what you're saying about the warm ups just enough but not too many to take away from the working sets
