Fuel System
Maintenance
Draining 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 tank drains completely.
2. Lower the boom and set the parking brake.
3. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all
moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
4. Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the closed position

5. Squeeze the ends of the hose clamp on the engine
side of the shut-off valve together and slide it up the
fuel line away from valve (Figure 39).
6. Pull the fuel line off the valve (Figure 39). Open the
fuel shut-off valve and allow the gasoline to drain
into a gas can or drain pan.
Note:
Now is the best time to install a new fuel filter
because the fuel tank is empty. Refer to Replacing
the Fuel Filter.
7. Install the fuel line onto the fuel shut-off valve. Slide
the hose clamp close to the valve to secure the fuel
line.
8. Wipe up any spilled fuel.
