Cleaning the Sediment Cup

Service Interval: Every 100 hours—Clean the sediment cup.
DANGER
In certain conditions, fuel is extremely flammable
and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from fuel
can burn you and others and can damage property.
• Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when
the engine is cold. Wipe up any fuel that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add fuel
to the fuel tank until the level is 25 mm (1 inch)
below the top of the tank. This empty space in
the tank allows the fuel to expand.
• Never smoke when handling fuel, and stay away
from an open flame or where fuel fumes may be
ignited by a spark.
• Store fuel in an approved container and keep it
out of the reach of children. Do not buy more
than a 30-day supply of fuel.
• Always place fuel containers on the ground away
from your vehicle before filling.
• Do not fill fuel containers inside a vehicle or on
a truck or trailer bed, because interior carpets
or plastic truck-bed liners may insulate the
container and slow the loss of any static charge.
• When practical, remove fuel-powered equipment
from the truck or trailer and fuel the equipment
with the wheels on the ground. If this is not
possible, then fuel such equipment on a truck
or trailer from a portable container rather than
from a fuel-dispenser nozzle.
• If you must use a fuel-dispenser nozzle, keep the
nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank
or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete.
