Removing the fuel filters using a suc-
tion tool
Tool
To ensure that the filter housings are drained
properly, the filter covers must be removed as
follows:
Start with the water separating prefilter (A). Do
not open the main filter cover (B) until the filter
housing for the water separating prefilter is com-
pletely drained.
1. Make a mark on the water separating prefil-
ter cover (A). Unscrew the cover 3 to 4 turns
with the socket.
Do not use an adjustable spanner or other open
tool to remove the filter covers, as the filter cov-
ers may then get damaged.
Wait for at least 2 minutes to allow as much of
the fuel as possible to drain out of the filter hous-
ing.
