Fuel filter
WARNING
Fire hazard!
When handling diesel fuel, observe the following precautions:
1. Do not smoke.
2. Never fill the tank when the engine is running.
3. Wipe up spilled fuel immediately.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
W0099A
Replace the fuel filter cartridge every 500 h
NOTICE: Do not work in any environment in which anything other than fuel will get into fuel lines. (Sites with strong
wind, blowing dust, etc.). Wash hands before operations. Do not use gloves. Do not open the packaging for the filter
kit until you start the installation work. Do not reuse any fuel remaining within the cover. For persistent dirt within the
cover, wipe it off with a clean rag, then clean with clean diesel fuel. Do not use parts cleaner because it could affect
the case cover. Do not touch the inside of the element. Completely wipe off any spilled fuel after changing the filter
element.
NOTE: If using a fuel filter other than the CASE CON-
STRUCTION genuine filter, you will no longer be guaran-
teed against the trouble caused by use of the wrong filter.
Take the same procedure as that for the pre-filter.
NOTICE: The tightening torque of the filter cartridge must
be 23 – 27 N·m ( 17.0 – 19.9 lb ft )
