MAINTENANCE
Replacing the Fuel Filter
The fuel filter is located with the priming 
pump. Replace the fuel filter every 800 hours 
(once per season) or more regularly if it 
becomes clogged.
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.
Check and Filling Coolant System
NOTE: Failure to follow the recommended 
procedure for filling the cooling system will 
cause engine overheating and possible 
engine failure.
ALWAYS check coolant level at the overflow 
reservoir. The correct level of coolant in the 
over flow tank does NOT assure the radiator 
is full.
It is extremely important that when antifreeze 
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 
(propylene glycol) phosphate-free antifreeze 
with tap water. DO NOT mix in ethylene 
glycol. Refer to engine operator’s manual.
The radiator for this cooling system is 
provided with two drain valves; one at each 
end of the lower tank. When draining the 
system, it is necessary to open both these 
valves to drain the radiator completely.

Add coolant to the radiator until it is up to the bottom
of the fill cap. DO NOT install cap.
If the block has been drained, start and run the en-
gine until the coolant level in the radiator drops. Stop
engine.
Add coolant to the bottom of the fill cap again. Install
radiator pressure cap. Add coolant to the proper line
on the over flow tank between FULL and LOW.
