Fuel tank

Removal
!
WARNING!
Petrol is highly flammable and
environmentally hazardous.
Exercise caution to avoid fire and
spillage.
1. Place an appropriate container to catch
the petrol. The tank holds approx.
10 litres / 10.6 USqt.
2. Empty the petrol tank by removing the
hose from the connector under the tank.
If you do not wish to empty the tank, you
can pinch the hose with lockable welding
pliers and then remove the hose and
hose clamp from the fuel filter's lower
connector. You must then be sure to keep
the hose opening higher than the fuel
level in the tank.
3. Remove the two screws that fix the tank
to the bracket. Lower the tank and pull
out the hose through the frame of the
machine (if it has been loosened by the
fuel filter).
Fitting
1. It is easier to work if you empty the tank
before fitting. Insert the hose into place
and attach it to the fuel filter with the
hose clamp. Make sure that the hose
cannot be chafed or rubbed.
2. Position the tank in the bracket, and
secure with the bolts.
3. Fit the fuel hose and the hose clamp to
the connector under the tank as required.
Fill with petrol and check that there are
no leaks.
