Turn the lever for 3-way valve to B position.

③	Vacuum out the air from connected hoses. This will allow the use of the fuel from an external

	fuel tank
<Caution>		.
To vacuum out the air from the fuel line,
	refer to	<9.2 During Operation> section.
Use always oil-proof hose in 8-10mm
④	inner diameter as connecting hose.
	The fuel level in the external fuel tank should be
	0 to 3m higher than the bottom of the generator.

To avoid any leaks from the external fuel intake and an external fuel return ports,

always turn the lever for 3-way valve to A position.

Use extreme caution when connecting the hoses. If the lever position is not set properly, the fuel may leak from either the built-in fuel tank or an external fuel tank.
