Servicing the Fuel Tank
In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely
flammable and highly explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and
others and can damage property.
•
Drain gasoline from the fuel tank when the
engine is cold. Do this outdoors in an open
area. Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
•
Never smoke when draining gasoline, and
stay away from an open flame or where a
spark may ignite the gasoline fumes.
1. Park the machine on a level surface to ensure that
the fuel tanks drain completely.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Loosen the hose clamp at the fuel filter and slide it
up the fuel line away from the fuel filter (Figure 24).
4. Disconnect the fuel line from the fuel filter
Note:
Allow gasoline to drain into a fuel container
can or drain pan (Figure 24).
Note:
This is the best time to install a new fuel filter
because the fuel tank is empty.
5. Install the fuel line onto the fuel filter. Slide the hose
clamp close to the fuel filter to secure the fuel line
(Figure 24).

Checking the Nozzle Clamp
Service Interval:
Before each use or daily
Check the nozzle clamp (Figure 26) daily to assure it is
tight. If the nozzle is dragged over obstacles or through
low areas in the terrain it could be knocked loose from
the clamp. Torque the clamp fasteners to 45–50 in-lb.
