SERVICING THE FUEL FILTER

WARNING: Do not service the fuel filter when tractor is hot or near any source of ignition. Allow the tractor to cool.

The tractor is equipped with an in-line fuel filter located on the right side of the engine.

Diesel fuel is a toxic substance. Dispose of in an environmentally safe manner. Contact your area EPA office for proper disposal methods and recycling center locations.

Draining The Fuel Filter

The fuel filter is equipped with a valve to drain condensate (water) that has separated from the diesel fuel and settled at the bottom of the filter.

Drain the condensate from the fuel filter before each use (Refer to Figure 59).

•Stop the engine and place a suitable container beneath the filter drain valve. See Figure 59.
