Fuel tank

Removal
WARNING!
Petrol is highly flammable and
environmentally hazardous.
Exercise caution to avoid fire
and spillage.
1. Place an appropriate container to catch the
petrol. The tank holds approx. 7 litres / 7.4
USqt.
2. Empty the petrol tank by removing the hose
from the connector under the tank.
If you do not wish to empty the tank, you can
pinch the hose with lockable welding pliers
and then remove the hose and hose clamp
from the fuel filter's lower connector. You
must then be sure to keep the hose opening
higher than the fuel level in the tank.
3. Remove the three screws that fix the tank to
the bracket. Lower the tank and pull out the
hose through the frame of the machine (if it
has been loosened by the fuel filter).
Fitting
1. It is easier to work if you empty the tank
before fitting. Pull the tube into place, pull it
under the corner of the crank house, and
attach it to the fuel filter with the hose clamp.
Make sure that the hose cannot be chafed or
rubbed.
2. Position the tank in the bracket, and secure
with the bolts.
3. Fit the fuel hose and the hose clamp to the
connector under the tank as required. Fill with
petrol and check that there are no leaks.
