Fuel System
Danger
Under certain conditions, diesel fuel and fuel
vapors are highly flammable and explosive. A fire
or explosion from fuel can burn you and others
and can cause property damage.
• Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors, in
an open area, when the engine is off and is cold.
Wipe up any fuel that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add fuel
to the fuel tank until the level is 1 in. (25 mm)
below the bottom of the filler neck. This empty
space in the tank allows the fuel to expand.
• Never smoke when handling fuel, and stay away
from an open flame or where fuel fumes may be
ignited by a spark.
• Store fuel in a clean, safety-approved container
and keep the cap in place.
Fuel Tank
Drain and clean fuel tank every 2 years. Also, drain and
clean tank if fuel system becomes contaminated or if
machine is to be stored for an extended period. Use clean
fuel to flush out the tank.

whichever comes first. Inspect for deterioration, damage, or
loose connections.
