The M100 windrower fuel system is equipped
with primary (C) and secondary (D) filters. Both

that separates sediment and water from the fuel.
Change both filters as follows every 500 hours
of operation:

a. Open engine compartment hood to highest

position.

b. Close fuel supply valve (E) under fuel tank.

c. Change primary filter (C) as follows:

1. Clean around the filter head (F).

2. Disconnect Water in Fuel (WIF) sensor (G)

from bottom of filter.

3. Remove filter (C) with a filter wrench.

4. Clean gasket mating surface.

5. Fill new filter with clean fuel and apply a thin

film of clean oil to the gasket on the new
filter.

6. Screw the new filter (C) onto the filter mount

until the gasket contacts the filter head.

7. Reconnect WIF sensor (G).

8. Tighten the filter an additional ½ to ¾ turn by

hand.

IMPORTANT

Do not use a filter wrench to install the
filter. Over-tightening can damage the
gasket and filter.
