CHANGING THE FUEL FILTER ELEMENT (WITH WATER SEPARATOR)
WARNING
• Engine is at high temperature immediately after the machine has been operated. Wait for engine to cool
down before replacing the filter.
• Do not bring fire or sparks near the fuel.
• Oils, filters, coolants and batteries are considered special waste and must be collected and disposed of
according to the regulations in force.
• Prepare a filter wrench
• Prepare a container to gather the fuel.
1.
Open the engine rear cover. (For further details, see para-
graph "3.2.9 ENGINE REAR COVER".
2.
Set the container to catch the fuel under the filter element
and element cup.
3.
Close valve (1) at the top of the filter (pos. A).
4.
Using a filter wrench, turn filter element cup (2) counter-
clockwise to remove it.
5.
Clean the filter holder, fill the new filter element cup with
fuel, coat the packing surface with engine oil, then install it
to the filter holder.
6.
Tighten the filter ring until the gasket makes contact with
the filter carrier surface, then give a further 2/3 turn.
IMPORTANT
• If the filter element cup is tightened too far, the packing
will be damaged and this will lead to leakage of fuel. If
the filter element cup is too loose, fuel will also leak
from the packing, so always tighten to the correct
amount.
7.
Open the valve (1) on top of the filter (pos. B).
8.
After replacing the fuel filter element, bleed air.
For details of the procedure, see “Air Bleeding“.
BLEEDING THE CIRCUIT
1.
Fill the fuel tank.
2. OPEN the valve (1) on top of the filter (position B).
3.
Turn the starting switch to the ON position, hold it there for
10 to 15 seconds, then return it to the OFF position.
Air bleeding is carried out automatically by the automatic
air bleed device.
NOTE
• When the machine has run out of fuel, carry out the same
procedure, to bleed the air.
