Air purge of the fuel system
(Diesel engine models)
When fuel has been completely depleted or
when maintenance has been performed on the
fuel system, be sure to perform air purge in the
following sequence.
1. Open the engine hood.
2. Operate the priming pump up and down
to perform air bleeding.
Draining the sedimenter
(Diesel engine models)
The sedimenter separates the water contained
in the fuel. It is integrated with the fuel filter.
If the sedimenter warning lamp comes on,
immediately drain water according to the fol-
lowing procedure because the accumulated
water in the sedimenter is above the specified
level:
1. Place a water receiving container under
the open end of the drain hose under the
fuel filter.
2. Turn around the drain cock a time or two
to loose it and operate the priming pump
up and down to drain the water in the sed-
imenter.
3. When light oil starts to flow out after the
end of water draining, firmly tighten the
drain cock.
Caution Caution
Wipe the light oil cleanly from the adjacent
area.

Maintaining the battery
Terminals
1. A loose or corroding terminal causes fail-
ure in connection: Eliminate white pow-
der, if noticed on the terminal, by pouring
warm water over it to disable and then
grease the terminal.
2. Remove the terminal, if it is extremely
corroded, from the battery to brush off the
corrosion using a wire brush or sandpa-
per. Then connect the terminal tightly to
the battery and grease the terminal.
Note:
When removing the battery, disconnect the
negative (-) terminal first.
When reconnecting it, connect the positive (+)
terminal first.
Caution Caution
• Stop the engine when attempt to work on
the battery and terminals.
• Be careful not permitting any foreign
matter to come into the battery by
means of putting the lids tightly in place.
• Be careful not causing a short circuit on
the battery nor nearing fire, such as
smoking fire, because the battery-emit-
ted gas is inflammable.
• Be cautious enough not to contact the
battery electrolyte.
When it comes into contact with an eye
or skin, wash it off immediately with
plenty of water and then see a doctor.
• Charge the battery with the lids off in a
well-ventilated area.
• When battery electrolyte is spilt, be cer-
tain to wash it off with water thoroughly
the spot and adjoining area.
