Tap Outlet Fuel Filter
WARNING: Ensure the engine is switched off while undertaking this task.
NOTE: The following procedure should be performed in a well ventilated
area, with no naked flames, sparks, or cigarettes.
NOTE: Safety glasses should also be worn and on/off switch (4) set to the
OFF position.
1. Ensure the fuel tap / lever (26) is in the OFF position (Fig AC).
2. Hold the tap housing and loosen the bottom sediment cup using an
11mm spanner (not supplied), and remove the sediment cup from the
bottom of the fuel tap / lever (26) (Fig AF). Be careful not to move the tap
housing. Do not lose the small seal on the thread of the sediment cap.
3. The filter inside the sediment cup can be cleaned in petrol to remove any
build-up of dirt on the outside of the filter. Do not operate the generator
without this filter in place.
4. After cleaning the filter, replace the seal, then the filter, on top of the
sediment cap and then insert the assembly back on the bottom of the
fuel tap / lever (26) (Fig AG), and secure finger tight in an anti-clockwise
direction. Using an 11mm spanner (not supplied), secure the sediment
cap until tight (Fig AH).
5. Refill the tank with fuel and ensure there are no leaks between the tap
and the tank, the tap and the sediment cap, and with the fuel tap / lever
(26) turned on, ensure there are no leaks where the fuel hose is fitted to
the outlet of the tap.
