DANGER
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.
Draining the Fuel Tank
1. Park the machine on a level surface, to assure fuel
tank drains completely. Then disengage the blade
control switch (PTO), set the parking brake, and
turn the ignition key to
off
. Remove the key.
2. Close the fuel shut off valve at the fuel tank
3. Squeeze the ends of the hose clamp together
and slide it up the fuel line away from fuel filter
(Figure 27).
4. Pull the fuel line off the fuel filter (Figure 27). 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.
5. Install the fuel line onto the fuel filter. Slide the hose
clamp close to the valve to secure the fuel line.
