1. Prepare the machine for service. See “Maintenance
NOTE:
For fuel capacity, see “Fluid Capacities” on
page 5-9.
2. Locate the fuel drain valve (2) under the right side of
the machine. Place a suitable container under the valve
to collect drained fuel.
3. Open the fuel drain valve to drain water and sediment
accumulated on the bottom of the tank. Do not allow
the fuel to splash out of the container.
4. Close the valve when only clean fuel drains from the
fuel tank.
5. If the fuel tank is completely drained, the system must be bled after refilling. See “Bleed the Fuel System” on
Bleed the Fuel System
NOTE:
Air trapped in the fuel system may cause engine starting failure or abnormal running.
After servicing the fuel system or running out of fuel, the key switch should be turned to ON for 2 to 3 minutes
before attempting to start the engine. The lift pump will bleed air from the system.
