Maintenance Procedures
Before Maintaining Your Unit
Units Equipped with Electronic Fuel Injected Engines:
If electric welding on vehicle, remove battery negative cable
(black) from battery negative (-) terminal, and disconnect the
ECM electrical connector(s). If welding on the muffler, also
disconnect the O2 sensor electrical connector and remove
the O2 sensor from the muffler.
Checking/Adding Fuel
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and must be handled with
care.
• Allow engine to cool for at least 3 minutes before
adding fuel.
• Do NOT allow open flame, smoking, or matches in the
area.
• Avoid over-filling and wipe up any spills.
• Use clean approved non-metallic container to prevent
static electric discharge.
• Use clean approved non-metallic funnel with a plastic
mesh strainer when filling the fuel tank.
RECOMMENDATION:
Fill the fuel tank at the end of each
day's operation to keep condensation out of the fuel tank.
To add fuel:
1. Stop the unit on a flat, level surface and release the
motion control levers. The levers will automatically pivot
outwards and engage the parking brake. Close the
deflectors, turn the ignition switch to OFF, and remove
the key.
2. Allow the engine to cool for at least three (3) minutes.
3. Remove any dirt and/or debris from around the fuel cap.
4. Remove the fuel cap slowly to allow any pressure built up
in the tank to escape.
5. Add fuel to the fuel tank using a non-metallic funnel with
a plastic mesh strainer. Only fill fuel tank to the bottom
of the filler neck. Do NOT overfill. Clean up spilled fuel
immediately.
6. Install the fuel cap.
Replace the Fuel Filter
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Do NOT remove the fuel filter when the engine is hot, as
spilled gasoline may ignite. Do NOT spread hose clamps
further than necessary. Ensure clamps grip hoses firmly
over filter after installation.
If filter is dirty or clogged, replace as follows:
1. Turn the fuel shut off valve (A, Figure 17) to OFF.

2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Place a container below the filter to catch spilled fuel.
4. Use pliers to open and slide hose clamps from the fuel
filter (B).
5. Remove hoses from filter.
6. Install new filter in proper flow direction in fuel line.
7. Secure with hose clamps.
8. Reconnect the negative battery cable when finished.
9. Turn the fuel shut off valve to ON.
Check Engine Oil Level
Interval:
Before Each Use
Refer to the engine owners manual for dipstick and oil fill
locations and specific engine oil check and fill procedures.
Change the Engine Oil and Filter
NOTICE
Avoid damage! Change the engine oil and filter more often if
the unit is used in the following conditions:
• Extremely dusty conditions.
• Frequent slow or low-speed operation.
• Frequent short trips.
1. Warm the engine by running for a few minutes. (Refer to
the engine operator's manual for oil & filter replacement
instructions.)
2. Place an oil drain pan beside the engine on the oil drain
valve side.
3. Place 18" of 1/2" ID hose (A, Figure 18) onto the drain
valve (B).
