7.10 Water Separator
The water separator (item 1)
removes water from the fuel supply
as the engine runs. (fig. 7.10-1) It is
located on the right side of the radia-
tor shroud. Drain the water separator
daily to maintain proper function.
To drain the water separator:
1.
Shut the machine down
according to the procedure in section 5.13.
2. Open the hood at the rear of the machine to access the water separator.
3. Loosen the twist valve on the bottom of the separator.
4. Retighten the valve once all of the water has been drained from the catch
bowl and close the hood to complete the procedure.
7.11 Fuel Filter Change
The fuel filter should be changed every 500 service hours, or as needed. A
plugged fuel filter can cause loss of engine power, rough running, or no start.
To change the filter:
1.
Shut the machine down according to the procedure in section 5.13, allow
the machine to cool before performing this procedure.
2. Open the hood at the rear of the machine to access the fuel filter.
3. Clean the outside of the filter (item 2) thoroughly (fig. 7.10-1).
4. Twist the black plastic rings CCW when viewed from the bottom to separate
the fuel filter from the water separator and filter head.
5. Reverse step 3 to reinstall the assembly (with new filter) into the machine.
