Draining the Fuel Tank.
Danger!
Petroleum can be extremely flammable and highly explosive. To avoid a fire or
explosion that may burn yourself, others, or cause property damage: -
Drain Petroleum from the fuel tank when the engine is cold. Do this outdoors in an
open area. Wipe up any petroleum that spills.
Never drain petroleum near an open flame or where a spark may ignite petroleum
fumes.
Never smoke while handling fuel.
Park the machine on a level surface, to assure fuel tank drains completely. Then lower
the loader arms and turn the ignition key to “OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the
key.
Loosen the hose clamp at the fuel filter and slide it up the fuel line away from the fuel
filter.
Pull the fuel line off the fuel filter, open the fuel valve, and allow fuel to drain into a
fuel can or drain pan.
Remove tank, drain completely and flush by tipping tank upside down.
Reverse procedure to replace clean tank.
Note: Now is the best time to install a new fuel filter because the fuel tank is empty.
Install the fuel line onto the fuel filter. Slide the hose clamp close to the fuel filter to
secure the fuel line.
