Air bleeding
Priming pump
CAUTION: The diesel engine in models covered by this manual will
operate on any fuel which enters the cylinders, whether it be from
the fuel injectors or the air inlet system. If any of the solvent which
may have been used in flushing out the air cleaner filter remains in
the filter, the engine could overspeed when started. In order to
prevent the engine from breaking apart and causing serious
personal injuries or death to anyone standing nearby, be sure that
no solvent remains in the air cleaner filter when starting the engine.
NOTICE:
Incomplete air bleeding can result in serious engine damage. Be
sure to follow the procedures outlined above carefully.
