screw on the top of the fuel filter/water
separator two to three turns
counterclockwise. Be sure to tighten the air
vent screw after the water has drained out.

the fire-resistant cover, which is
installed to the lower part of the fuel
filter/water separator to protect the
water alarm switch.
3. Attach a tube to the drain plug.

at the bottom of the fuel filter/water
separator by turning counterclockwise
and drain off any water or sediment.
