CHECKING / ADDING FUEL (Gas)
To add fuel:
1. Remove the fuel cap (see A, Figure 13).
2. Fill the tank to the bottom of the filler neck. This
will allow for fuel expansion.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Refer to your engine manual
for specific fuel recommendations.
3. Install and hand tighten the fuel cap.
4. Repeat same process for opposite tank.
NOTE: The fuel tanks are tied together through a
“tee” in the supply lines. By filling only one tank, the
level will balance between the two tanks, effectively
having 1/2 tank of fuel for each side.
FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter is located in the fuel line between fuel
shut off valve and fuel pump, behind the hydraulic
reservoir. If filter is dirty or clogged, replace as
follows:
1. Shut off the fuel tank selection valve.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Place a container below the filter to catch spilled
fuel.
4. Using a pliers, open and slide hose clamps from
fuel filter.
5. Remove hoses from filter.
6. Install new filter in proper flow direction in fuel line.
7. Secure with hose clamps.
8. Reconnect the negative battery cable when
finished.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and must be
handled with care. Never fill the tank when the
engine is still hot from recent operation. Do not
allow open flame, smoking or matches in the
area. Avoid over-filling and wipe up any spills.
Do not remove fuel filter when engine is hot, as
spilled gasoline may ignite. DO NOT spread
hose clamps further than necessary. Ensure
clamps grip hoses firmly over filter after
installation.
Do not use gasoline containing METHANOL,
gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol,
gasoline additives, premium gasoline, or
white gas because engine/fuel system
damage could result.
