Fuel tank

Removal

!
WARNING!
Petrol is highly flammable and environmentally
hazardous.
Exercise caution to avoid fire and spillage.
1. Place a suitable container to collect the petrol. The tank holds about 17 litres (4.5 US Gal).
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 at the fuel filter).

Fitting

1. It is easier to work if you empty the tank before fitting. Insert the hose into place and attach it to the fuel
filter with the hose clamp. Make sure that the hose cannot be chafed or rubbed.
2. Place the tank in place on the bracket and attach it with the screws and washers.
3. Fit the fuel hose and the hose clamp to the connector under the tank as required. Fill with petrol and
check for leaks.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Overly long screws can damage the tank and cause
fuel leakage.
Only use approved screws specified in the spare
parts catalogue.
A screw is hidden on the front of the bracket.
