• FUEL FILTER Use a hooked wire to extract the fuel lter from inside the
fuel tank. See Figure 15.
CAUTION!
Make sure you do not pierce the fuel line with the end of the hooked wire.
The line is delicate and can be damaged easily.
• Inspect the lter element for signs of contamination from debris. A con-
taminated fuel lter should be replaced with a new Shindaiwa replacement
element. Before reinstalling the lter, inspect the condition of the fuel line.
If you note damage or deterioration, the blower should be removed from
service until it can be inspected by a Shindaiwa-trained service technician.
