SEDIMENT CUP CLEANING
The sediment cup prevents dirt or water that may be in the fuel tank from
entering the carburetor. If the engine has not been run for a long time, the
sediment cup should be cleaned.
1. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
2. Turn the fuel valve lever to the OFF
position; then remove the sediment
cup and the O-ring. Discard the O-
ring.
3. Clean the sediment cup in
nonflammable solvent, and dry it
thoroughly.
4. Install the sediment cup and a new
O-ring, and tighten the sediment
cup securely.
5. Turn the fuel valve lever to the ON
position and check for leaks.
Gasoline is highly flammable and

• Stop the engine and let it cool before
handling fuel.

• Handle fuel only outdoors.
