DIESEL FUEL
On no account must diesel fuel be disposed of
in the household refuse or public sewage
system. Use your local authorised waste
disposal facilities.
PRIMING THE FUEL SYSTEM
If for any reason the fuel system has been
vented or air has entered the fuel system, this
procedure may be followed. If the engine has
been allowed to run dry, this procedure may not
be sufficient to restart the engine. See warning
on following page.
• Open the manual bleed valve on the fuel filter
(A) approximately one full turn using a 10mm
wrench.
• Attach a suitable hose to the bleed valve and
direct it into a suitable container.
• Pump the hand primer (B) on top of the fuel
filter until a solid stream of diesel fuel appears
for a few strokes.
• Remove the hose and close the manual bleed
valve.
• Start the engine.

BLEEDING WATER FROM THE FUEL SYSTEM
The water in fuel indicator will illuminate if a
significant presence of water is detected in the
bottom of the fuel filter cartridge. This should be
attended to immediately by the draining of the
fuel filter. if this does not rectify the condition you
should have it checked out by an LTI Dealer
immediately.
• Stop the engine.
• Attach a suitable hose to the bleed valve and
direct it into a suitable container.
• Loosen the drain valve (C) at the base of the
filter by two turns (not more to avoid dropping
the connection).
• Allow any water to drain out and to ensure
complete drainage, move the priming pump (B in
previous illustration) up and down a few times.
• When all the water has been drained off, close
the drain valve.
