2. When tank is completely empty.
3. After the tractor has not been used
for a long period of time.
CAUTION
Do not bleed the fuel system
when the engine is hot.
4. In order to eliminate air from the fuel
system, proceed as follows.
5. Fill the fuel tank with fuel and open the
fuel cock.
6. Open the air plug of the fuel filter, and
operate the priming pump, then lock it
after the air is bleeded completely.
7. When there are no more air bubbles in
the fuel line which flows out, tighten
as before.
IMPORTANT
When the air venting is finished, fuel
which does not contain air bubbles
will be filtered by the fuel filter and
sent to the fuel injection pump. Fill the
fuel tank before it becomes empty. If a
diesel system is allowed to run out of
fuel, it will become necessary to elimi-
nate air from the fuel system after fill-
ing the fuel tank.
