Fuel Tanks
The unit has two fuel tanks, one located on the left side
and one on the right side. Each tank connects to the fuel
shut-off valve in the control panel. From there a common
fuel line leads to the engine (Fig. 10).
To use the right side fuel tank rotate the fuel shut-off
valve 1/4 turn to the right from the off location. This uses
fuel from the right side tank only. When the right fuel tank
is empty, move the fuel shut off valve 1/4 turn to the left
from the off position.
Close fuel shut-off valve, on front panel before
transporting or storing machine.
