MAINTENANCE
Every 50 Hours
Draining the Fuel Tank
WARNING
�
Do not smoke or permit open flames
while handling fuel or working on the
fuel system.
�
Stop the engine in a well-ventilated
place and allow it to cool down before
performing maintenance.
�
Clean up spilled fuel immediately.
Do this before operating the machine.
1. Remove the fuel cap (2).
2. Place a pan under the drain plug (3).
3. Loosen the drain plug (3) and drain the
water and sediment from the bottom of
the tank.
4. Tighten the drain plug (3).
5. While watching the sight gauge (1), add
fuel.
6. Tighten the fuel cap (2).
�
If the fluid level can not be checked by
fluid level lines.
Remove the caps (2) and look into the fluid
supply holes to check the fluid level. If the
fluid is below the sleeve (3), be sure to add
distilled water up to the bottom edge of the
sleeve (3).
Proper amount ...... (A)
The fluid reaches up to the bottom edge
of the sleeve (3), so the surface tension
causes the fluid to swell and the plate
appears distorted.
Level too low ......... (B)
The fluid does not reach up to the
bottom edge of the sleeve (3), so the
plate appears laminar, not distorted.
4. Also check the terminals for looseness
and dirt.
Replenishing
When adding distilled water, do so before
starting operations in order to prevent
freezing.
1. Remove the caps (2), and add distilled
water until the upper level (H).
2. Inspect the indicator (1) then it turns blue.
3. Clean the cap’s exhaust hole, then
tighten the caps (2) securely.
