Inspecting Fuel Filter

Inspect fuel filter bowl daily for water or other contami-
nants. If water or other contaminants are present, they
must be removed before commencing operation.
1. Close fuel shutoff valve above the filter.
Diesel fuel is flammable. Use caution when
storing or handling it. Do not smoke while
filling the fuel tank. Do not fill fuel tank while
engine is running or in an enclosed area. Al-
ways fill fuel tank outside and wipe up any
spilled diesel fuel before starting the en-
gine. Store fuel in a clean, safety–approved
container, and keep the cap in place. Use
diesel fuel for the engine only; not for any
other purpose.
2. Unscrew nut securing bowl to filter head. Remove
water or other contaminants from bowl.
3. Inspect fuel filter and replace if dirty. Refer to Re-
placing Fuel Filter.
4. Reinstall bowl to filter head. Make sure O–ring is
positioned properly between bowl mounting nut and fil-
ter head.
5. Open fuel shutoff valve above filter.
6. Open bleed screw on filter mounting allowing bowl
to refill with fuel. Close bleed screw.
