CHECKS AND SERVICE
BATTERY
Checking the state of the battery charge
The charging of the battery should be checked at least once each season. This is
done by using a hydrometer, which shows the specific gravity of the electrolyte, this
varying with the state of the charge. (see "Technical Data").
FUEL SYSTEM
Observe the greatest cleanliness when handling the fuel system. IMPORTANT: Try to
avoid fuel splash.
Changing fuel filter
The filter element in the fuel filter should be
changed at least once each season.
To do this, remove the filter centre screw
and remove the container with the filter. Try
to avoid fuel splash. Clean the container
and contact surfaces, and fit a new filter
element and its gasket. Pump up the fuel
with the hand primer. If the pump action is
poor; turn the engine so that the cam
driving the pump changes position. Vent the
fuel system. (See page 21).
Extra fuel filter
If an extra fuel filter with water separator is
fitted, check the transparent bowl to see if
there is any water in the fuel. If necessary,
drain the filter via the cock in the bottom of
the bowl. Try to avoid fuel splash. Pump up
the fuel and vent the system. The fuel filter
element should be changed at least once
each season.
