Servicing the Fuel Tanks

The unit has two fuel tanks, one located on the left side
and one on the right side. Each tank connects to the fuel
shut off valve in the control panel. From there a common
fuel line leads to the engine (Fig. 22).
To use the right side fuel tank rotate the fuel shut off valve
1/4 turn to the right from the off location. This uses fuel
from the right side tank only. When the right fuel tank is
empty, move the fuel shut off valve 1/4 turn to the left
from the off position.
Close fuel shut off valve, on front panel before
transporting or storing machine.
