Fuel System
Maintenance
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 6 to 13
mm (1/4 to 1/2 in) 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.

Draining the Fuel Tank

Service Interval: Every 800 hours—Drain and clean
the fuel tank.
Before storage
Drain and clean the fuel tank if the fuel system
becomes contaminated or if the machine is to be
stored for an extended period. Use clean fuel to flush
out the tank.
Checking the Fuel Lines
and Connections
Service Interval: Every 400 hours (Or yearly,
whichever comes first).
Check the fuel lines and connections for deterioration,
damage, or loose connections.
Servicing the Water
Separator
Service Interval: Every 400 hours—Replace the
fuel-filter canister.
1. Place a clean container under the fuel filter.
2. Loosen the drain plug on the bottom of the filter
canister.
