MAINTENANCE

Replacing the Fuel Filter

Replace the line-mounted fuel filter every
100 hours (once per season) or more
regularly if it is clogged.

Replace the filter as follows:

1.

Move the hose clamps away from the
filter. Use flat-nosed pliers.

2.

Pull the filter loose from the hose ends.

3.

Push the new filter into the hose ends.
Position the filter with the ”FLOW” arrow
pointing up toward the fuel pump. If
necessary, a soap solution can be
applied to the filter ends to ease
mounting.

4.

Move the hose clamps back toward the
filter.

Checking the Fuel Pump’s Air Filter

Regularly check that the fuel pump’s air filter
is free from dirt.

Remove the screws and open the pump, no
hoses need be removed.

The filter can be cleaned with a brush if
necessary.

Replace the filter on the console.
