Section 7
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme
care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable
and the vapors are explosive.
1. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
2. Use only an approved gasoline container.
3. Never remove the gas cap or add fuel with the
engine running. Allow the engine to completely cool
before fueling.
4. Never fuel the machine indoors or in an enclosed
trailer.
5. Never store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark or pilot light such as on
a water heater or other appliances.
6. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle
before filling.
7. Remove the machine from the truck or trailer and
fuel on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel
the machine with a portable container, rather than
from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
8. Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of fuel tank
or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
9. If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately and wash affected skin.
10. Replace gas cap and tighten until it ratchets.
B. REPLACING IN-LINE FUEL FILTER
ELEMENTS
The engine fuel filter should be replaced after every 500
hours of operation or annually, whichever occurs first.
1. Close the shut-off valve.
2. Remove and replace the engine fuel filter. Open the
fuel shut-off valve.

7.6 ENGINE AIR CLEANER

A. CLEANING AND/OR REPLACING AIR
CLEANER ELEMENT
For any air cleaner, the operating environment dictates
the air cleaner service periods. Inspect and clean the air
cleaner element after every 100 hours of operation or bi-
weekly, whichever occurs first and replace the element if
required.
In extremely dusty conditions it may be necessary
to check the element once or twice daily to prevent
engine damage.
1. Release the two latches securing the air cleaner
cover to the air cleaner assembly and remove the
cover. Set aside.
2. Remove the air cleaner and inspect.
3. Clean or replace the air cleaner and foam
pre-cleaner as recommended by the engine
manufacturer.
4. Replace the air cleaner cover and be sure to snap
the two latches closed.

7.7 BATTERY

WARNING
Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and
explosive gases. To avoid personal injury when
checking, testing or charging batteries, DO NOT
use smoking materials near batteries. Keep arcs,
sparks and flames away from batteries. Provide
proper ventilation and wear safety glasses.
