[3] CHECK POINT OF EVERY 50 HOURS

Check of Fuel Hoses and Clamp Bands
CAUTION
• Stop the engine when attempting the check and change
prescribed below.
• Remember to check the fuel hose periodically. The fuel
hose is subject to wear and aging, fuel may leak out onto
the running engine, causing a fire.
1. Check to see that all fuel hoses (2) and hose clamps (1) are tight
and not damaged.
2. If fuel hoses (2) and hose clamps (1) are found worn or
damaged, replace or repair them at once.
3. The fuel hose (2) is made of rubber and ages regardless of
period of service. Replace the fuel hose (2) together with the
hose clamp (1) every two years and securely tighten.
4. However if the fuel hoses (2) and hose clamps (1) are found
damaged or deteriorated earlier than two years, then change or
remedy.
IMPORTANT
• When the fuel hose is disconnected for change, close both
ends of the fuel hose with a piece of clean cloth or paper to
prevent dust and dirt from entering. Entrance of dust and
dirt causes malfunction of the fuel injection pump. In
addition, particular care must be taken not to admit dust
and dirt into the fuel pump.
