Lockable Fuel Cap
Though not necessary to leave locked, the use of a locking fuel cap protects the
loader from fuel theft or fuel system vandalism. The key to this lockable fuel cap
should be secured to the loader’s key ring. A torque override features aids in the
proper installation of the fuel cap. It produces an audible click as the o-ring that
seals the cap is properly compressed. To operate the lockable fuel cap:
1. Shut off the engine and remove the key. Insert the fuel cap key into the fuel
cap lock.
2. Turn the key 45° clockwise to unlock the fuel cap and turn the cap off the fuel
fill neck. When finished fueling the loader, replace the cap and tighten it.
Holding the cap, insert the key and turn it 45° counterclockwise to lock the
cap in place. Remove the key and check the lock by trying to open the cap.
In the event the key to the lockable fuel cap is
lost, contact your dealer or a local locksmith to
prevent damage to the cap.
