cal components can cause a fire. To help prevent
possible injury, turn the start switch off when
changing fuel filters or water separator elements.
Clean up fuel spills immediately.

ing or repair is performed.

The water separator can be under suction during nor-
mal engine operation. Ensure that the drain valve is
tightened securely to help prevent air from entering
the fuel system.

Place a suitable container under the water
separator to catch any fluid that might spill. Clean
up any spilled fluid.
