Fuel System
Maintenance
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 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 inch
(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 fuel
container and keep the cap in place.
Checking the Fuel Line and
Connections
Service Interval: After the first 50 hours
Every 400 hours/Yearly (whichever
comes first)
Inspect the lines and connections for deterioration,
damage, or loose connections.
Bleeding the Fuel System
1. Park the machine on a level surface.
2. Ensure that the fuel tank is at least half full.
