Replacing the Fuel Filters

Service Interval: Every 400 hours
The sprayer has 2 fuel filters, a fuel filter/water separator
(located between the fuel pump and the carburetor)
and an in-line filter (located between the fuel tank and
the fuel pump). Replace the fuel filters after every 400
operating hours.
1. Set the parking brake, stop the pump, stop the
engine, and remove the ignition key.
2. Clamp off the hose on either side of the in-line fuel
filter to prevent fuel from pouring out of the hoses
when you remove the filter.
3. Place a drain pan under the filter.
4. Loosen and slide the hose clamps away from the
filter (Figure 45).
