Fuel filter maintenance
Remove and replace the
filter element.
■
Use a hooked wire to extract the fuel
filter from inside the fuel tank.
Before reinstalling the new filter ele-
ment, inspect the condition of all the
fuel system components (fuel pick-up
line, fuel return line, tank vent line, tank
vent, fuel cap and fuel tank). If damage,
splitting or deterioration is noted, the
unit should be removed from service
until it can be inspected or repaired by
a Shindaiwa-trained service technician.
CAUTION!
Make sure you do not pierce the fuel
line with the end of the hooked wire.
The line is delicate and can be dam-
aged easily.

NOTE:
Federal EPA regulations require all model year 2012 and later gasoline powered
engines produced for sale in the United States to be equipped with a special low
permeation fuel supply hose between the carburetor and fuel tank. When servic-
ing model year 2012 and later equipment, only fuel supply hoses certified by EPA
can be used to replace the original equipment supply hose. Fines up to $37,500
may be enforced for using an un-certified replacement part.
