D. Firmly grasp the secondary-fuel-filter element,
and rotate it counterclockwise, and remove the
filter from the filter adapter
Note: Discard the filter element.
E. Clean the filter adapter with a clean rag.
2. Install the secondary, fuel filter as follows:
A. Apply a thin film of clean fuel to the seal on the
fuel-filter element.
B. Align the new secondary-filter element to the
filter adapter
(Figure
C. Rotate the secondary-filter element until the seal
contacts the filter adapter, then rotate the filter
element an additional 3/4 turn.
Important: Do not use a filter wrench to
tighten the filter. You could damage the filter
and cause a leak.
D. Align the new O-ring over the water sensor
(Figure

E. Align the water sensor to the bottom of the
secondary, fuel filter
F. Firmly grasp the secondary-filter element and
rotate the water sensor clockwise until hand-tight

Checking Fuel Lines and
Connections
Service Interval: Every 500 hours/Yearly (whichever
comes first)—Inspect the fuel lines and
connections.
Inspect the fuel lines and connections for deterioration,
damage, or loose connections.
Draining and Cleaning the Fuel
Tank
Service Interval: Every 1,000 hours/Yearly (whichever
comes first)—Drain and clean the fuel
tank.
Drain and clean the tank if the fuel system becomes
contaminated or if the machine will be stored for an extended
period of time. Use clean fuel to flush out the tank. Refer to
Draining Water from the Fuel Tank (page 69)
instructions.
Note: Perform this procedure when the fuel level is low, to
avoid the need to drain large volumes of fuel.
