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 filters 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).

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.
WARNING!
Petrol is highly flammable and
environmentally hazardous.
Exercise caution to avoid fire and
spillage.
