Generator In-Line Fuel Filter
Since water is heavier
than fuel it will settle
at the bottom of the
water separator fi lter.
Periodically check the
fi lter for foreign debris
and water in the fuel
supply. To check the
fi lter unscrew the fi lter
using an oil fi lter type
wrench that fi ts on the
bottom. Do not use
a strap type wrench
since it may distort or damage the fi lter housing. Use an
environmentally safe container to catch any contaminated
fuel. Dispose of according to local, or state regulations.
Carry extra water separator fi lters on board.
When you turn the fi lter upside down note that any water
in the gasoline will gather at the bottom of the container
since it is heavier than gasoline and will appear as a
different color and consistency and normally will move
back and forth independently from the gasoline mixture
in the container.
After inspection spin on the fi lter by hand until tight. Start
the engine and check for fuel or air leaks.
