Do not rush to start replacement of line filter element as it is heated
to a high temperature immediately after the engine has been stopped.
Replace the filter element after the oil has cooled down.
★
Wipe up spilled fuel thoroughly after replacement to avoid an acci-
dental fire.
The line filter is located inside the cover on
the front of tank.
Replace hydraulic oil together with the line
filter element at the same time.
