Preparing for winter
It is advisable to fill the fuel tank with fuel completely during the win-
ter period in order to prevent condensation. Water droplets in fuel
are the ideal transporters of dirt and rust through narrow pipes. A full
fuel tank prevents the growth of bacteria in the tank.

Maintenance
- Regularly check the air relief nipple and clean the sieve in the nip-
ple if necessary.
- Every year, check the hoses and hose connections for possible
leakage and fit new hoses and/or hose clamps as necessary.
- Also check the tank for damage caused by chaffing. Replace a
damaged tank immediately.
