Removing and Installing the Fuel Tank
Engine: Service and Repairs
The fuel system includes a fuel tank with a mechanical fuel shut-off valve, an
in-line fuel filter, and a vacuum pulse fuel pump mounted on the engine. The fuel
system also includes an fuel evaporative control system designed to collect and
store evaporative emissions from the fuel tank; refer to
System (page 4–13).
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. A fire or an explosion
from the fuel can burn you, burn other people, and damage property.
• Use caution whenever you store or handle gasoline.
• Do not smoke while handling gasoline.
• Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is running, while the
engine is hot, or when the machine is in an enclosed area.
• Always fill the fuel tank outside and wipe up any spilled gasoline
before starting the engine.
• Store gasoline in a clean, safety-approved container and keep
the cap in place.
• Use gasoline as an engine fuel only, not for any other purpose.
The muffler and exhaust manifold may be hot. To avoid possible
burns, allow exhaust system to cool before working on the engine.
Check the fuel lines and connections at the scheduled maintenance intervals
recommended in the traction unit Operator's Manual. Check the lines for
deterioration, damage, leaks, or loose connections. Replace the hoses, clamps,
and fittings if necessary; refer to
Refer to Figure 13 for this procedure.
1. Park the machine on a level surface, lower any attachments, engage the
parking brake, set the key switch to the O
from the key switch.
To prevent damage to the fuel hoses, cable ties and clamps may
be used to secure the hoses to the machine components. Record
the location of all cable ties and clamps that are removed from the
machine so they can be properly replaced.
2. Close the fuel shut-off valve and disconnect the fuel hose from the in-line
fuel filter.
3. Place disconnected hose in appropriate container and open fuel shut-off
valve to allow fuel tank to drain completely. Close the fuel shut-off valve.
4. Disconnect the fuel hose from the rollover valve at the top of the fuel tank.
