Oil Filter
The oil filter is located in-line between the oil tank and the oil pump on all models. The in-line oil filter is a special
type and must not be substituted. Replace the oil filter annually or whenever water or debris has entered the oil
tank. Do not attempt to clean this filter.
1. Cut cable tie straps, or remove clamps, securing
lines to filter.
2. Remove lines and replace filter with arrow pointing
in direction of oil flow (towards pump).
3. Install new cable tie straps, or reinstall clamps, on
each line and check for leaks.
