Replacing the Fuel Filter

Replace the fuel filter mounted on the supply line
after every 100 hours (once per season) or more
frequently if it is clogged.
Replace the filter as follows:
1. Open the engine cover.
2. Move the hose clamps away from the filter.
Use a pair of flat pliers.
3. Pull the filter loose from the hose ends.
4. Push the new filter into the hose ends. Position
the filter with the "FLOW" arrow pointing up
towards the fuel pump. If necessary, a soap
solution can be applied to the ends of the filter
to simplify assembly.
5. Move the hose clamps back toward the filter.

Checking the Fuel Pump's Air Filter

clogged by dirt.
The filter can be cleaned using a brush, if
necessary.
1. Remove the two screws holding the fuel pump.
2. Move the pump to one side without loosening
the hoses and brush clean the filter.
3. Replace the fuel pump.

Air Supply Exhaust Pipe

Cleaning the Pulse Air Filter
1. Fold up the engine cover.
2. Loosen the four snap catches, remove the
cover, and remove the filter.
3. Blow the filter clean with compressed air.
Replace the filter if it is damaged or cannot be
blown clean.

engine cover.

Checking the Transmission Air Intake

Check to ensure that the transmission's air intake
in the transmission cover is not clogged.

grass cuttings from the transmission's cooling fins
if necessary.
Cooling is impaired if the air intake is blocked or
the transmission housing is dirty, this can result in
damage to the transmission.
