1. Close the fuel supply valve (if equipped).
2. Clean the outside of the fuel lter assembly.
Note: If the fuel lter element is mot
equipped with a drain, remove cap.
Remove the nylon insert in order to
reduce the lever of fuel in the fuel l-
ter element. A reduction in the level
of fuel in the fuel lter element will
help prevent fuel from being spilled
when the element is removed.
Notice: Do not use a tool in order to re-
move the fuel lter. Attempting to
remove the fuel lter with a lter
wrench or a lter strap could dam-
age the locking ring.
3. Hold fuel lter and rotate quick release
collar counterclockwise. Removed and
discarded.
