Replace the filter as follows:
Unscrew fuel filter from pump and replace.
Every 50 hours check for water in the fuel
filter. Empty if necessary. Refer to the engine
manual.
Checking Tire Pressures
All four tires shall have a pressure of 16 PSI.

NOTE: Failure to follow the recommended

is used, that it be mixed with water in a
separate container before adding. NEVER
add straight antifreeze to the radiator.
Recommended mix is 50/50 lowtox
phosphate-free antifreeze with tap water.
Refer to engine operator’s manual.
