Check LPG Fuel Delivery
System

Service Interval: Every 40 hours

Check the entire LPG fuel delivery system for damage
or deterioration. Follow all the inspection checks as
specified in the Inspection section in Safety.

Change LPG Tank

Service Interval: As required

Change the LPG tanks outdoors in a well ventilated
area.

1. Stop the machine on level ground, disengage the

PTO, and engage the parking brake.

2. Close the fuel valve to the tank.

3. Purge all vapors from the hose(s), by running

the engine until it stops, turn key to “OFF” and
remove it from the ignition.

4. Carefully disconnect the LPG fuel hose.

5. Unlatch the cylinder brackets and remove the

tank.

WARNING

Fuel system components are under high
pressure. The use of damaged or improper
components can cause system failure, fuel
leakage, and possible explosion, which may
result in serious injury or death.

Do Not attempt to repair or modify the
valves, fittings, or other tank components.

ONLY use the Exmark approved LPG
tank, fittings, and hoses that were
designed for your mower.

6. Inspect the filled tank valve and fitting openings

for dirt, debris, or damage.

7. Inspect the tank hose connection fitting for

damaged or missing o-rings.

8. Make sure the replacement tank type and size

match the tank specification decal.

9. Mount the tank by aligning the slot with the

mounting tab as shown in Figure 14

Important: Valves and gauges may not
function properly if the LPG tank is not
installed correctly.

10. Latch the brackets and make sure the tank is

securely fastened to the mower.

11. Carefully connect the fuel hose. Make sure the

hose is not kinked.

12. Slowly open the fuel valve to equalize the pressure

in the tank. If the fuel valve is opened too quickly,
the pressure relief valve is equipped with a back
pressure check valve that will shut off the fuel
supply. If this happens, close the fuel valve
completely and wait five seconds. Slowly open
the fuel valve.

13. Check for leaks as described in the Inspection

section in Safety.
