7 MAINTENANCE
7.10 Water Separator
The water separator (fig. 7.10-1),
located on the left side of the engine)
removes water from the fuel supply
as the engine runs. Drain the water
separator daily to maintain proper
function.
To drain the water separator:
1.
With the engine off and cool,
and key removed from the ignition, open the hood at the rear of the
machine to access the water separator.
2.
Loosen the twist valve on the bottom of the separator.
3.
Retighten the valve once all of the water has been drained from the catch
bowl and close the hood to complete the procedure.
7.11 Fuel Filter Change
The fuel filter should be changed
every 500 service hours, or as
needed. A plugged fuel filter can
cause loss of engine power, rough
running, or no start.
To change the filter:
1.
With the engine off and cool,
and key removed from the
ignition, open the hood at the
rear of the machine to access
the fuel filter.
2.
Clean the outside of the filter (1) thoroughly (fig. 7.11-1).
3.
Remove bolt (2) on the top of the filter assembly, then remove filter.
(fig. 7.11-1)
4.
Reverse step 3 to install the new fuel filter into the machine.
