TRANSPORTING
22
AUTO-VENTING TYPE FUEL TANK
1.
Disconnect the remote fuel line from tank. This will close the air vent and prevent escape of fuel or vapors
from tank.
2.
Install tether cap over the fuel line connector stem. This will protect the connector stem from being accidently
pushed-in, thus, allowing fuel or vapor to escape.
