Clean the water separator when the machine is parked on a flat
and solid surface, the engine and the battery disconnector are
off and the gas bottle is closed.
Water separator cleaning procedure:
• Open the engine bonnet (1).
• Open the left material hopper side cover (2).
• Place a transparent drain container resistant to engine fuel
under the water separator (3).
• Hold the water separator (3) with a spanner by the nut (4).
• Loosen the water separator drain screw (5) with a screwdriv-
er (about 3 – 4 turns) until the liquid starts to flow out.
• Check if there is a dividing line in the drain container be-
tween the condensed water (bottom) and engine fuel (top).
• When clean engine fuel flows out, firmly hold the water sep-
arator (3) by the nut (4) with a spanner and tighten the water
separator drain screw (5).

contact with hot parts of the engine and catch fire.
There is a risk of burns from the hot parts of the engine.
