Figure 5.81: Fuel Shut-off Valve
3. Open fuel valve (A) under the fuel tank.
4. Prime the fuel system. For instructions, refer to Priming
Fuel System , page 366.
Draining Fuel Tank
Draining the fuel tank is necessary to remove old or contaminated fuel, or if the fuel tank requires service.
WARNING
• To avoid personal injury or death from explosion or fire, do NOT smoke or allow flame or sparks near the fuel tank
when refueling.
• NEVER refuel the windrower when the engine is hot or running.
• To avoid electric discharge and the risk of a fire or explosion, ensure that the fuel delivery system is properly
bonded and grounded. A bonded fuel delivery system has an electrically conductive and unbroken connection
between all components of the fuel delivery system (fuel supply tank, transfer pump, transfer hose, nozzle, and
others). A wire connection from the fuel delivery system to the machine chassis will equalize the static electric
potential between the two machines, further reducing the chance of a static electric discharge. A properly grounded
fuel delivery system has an electrically conductive connection from the fuel delivery system tank to earth ground to
allow static and electrical charge dissipation.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected startup of the machine, always stop the engine and remove the
key from the ignition before leaving the operator’s seat for any reason.
1. Shut down the engine, and remove the key from the ignition.
2. Open the hood to the lower position. For instructions, refer to 5.3.1 Opening Hood – Lower Position, page 316 .
