Replacing fuel filter
The fuel filter can be found in the fuel line that supplies the engine from the fuel reservoir.
The engine manufacturer recommends replacing the fuel filter once a year or at least after
every 200 hours of use.
• Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition.
Warning:
Let the engine cool down completely in order to avoid fire or explosions.
• Turn the left safeguard upwards so that the filter becomes ac
-
cessible.
• Before replacing the filter, the fuel tank must be emptied or the
fuel tap (if present) must be closed. Another option is to pinch
the supply line closed with a clamp. If this is not done, fuel will
flow out of the tank.
• Loosen the clips so that the filter can be removed from the line.
• Check the lines for any damage and replace if necessary.
• Clean up any fuel that comes from the filter or the lines immediately.
• Install the new filter taking account of the arrow on the filter.
• You can obtain a new fuel filter from your Eliet dealer or from a service-centre which deals
in the brand of engine.
• If present, open the fuel tap or remove the clamp.
• Start the engine and check for any leaks.
