EPLACING THE LINE FUEL FILTER
Follow the instructions given in the manual of the
type of fuel filter installed (ref.1). See Chap. 3.6.1 "Fuel
filter".

LEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
The generator is equipped with an automatic fuel bleed
valve. Should manual bleeding be necessary, press
the ON button on the control panel and wait
30 seconds before starting the generator.
If there are air bubbles in the fuel system, the engine will
not function regularly or will be unable to reach the rated
rpm. Air may penetrate the fuel circuit through a not
perfectly sealed joint (pipe, filters, tank) or when the fuel
in the tank is at minimum level.

AIR FILTER

Generators are fitted with a dry air filter (ref.2), which
prevents foreign bodies from entering
the combustion chamber. It is sufficient to clean the filter
mass with diesel fuel once a year to remove any
impurities.

Take the liquids used to wash the filter
to special waste collection centres for disposal.
