7.7 FUEL SYSTEM
CLEANING THE FUEL TANK
While the mower is in use, dirt may accumulate in the fuel tank, which may cause the fuel system to clog up when
the mower is operating. The tank may only be emptied by suctioning petrol, taking all precautions when handling
fuel. The fuel tank venting system is integrated into the tank cap, where it is ended by a flip valve closing the venting
system when the mower is overturned.
WARNING
Do not smoke or handle open flames near gasoline when working with gasoline.
REPLACING THE FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter is replaced every 200 hours of operation.
1) Ensure safe operation of the mower
2) Turn off the engine and mower.
3) Arrange access to the engine area.
4) Remove the old fuel filter.
5) Install new fuel filter.
