MAINTENANCE

Replacing the Fuel Filter

Replace the line-mounted fuel filter every 100 hours (once per season) or more often if it becomes clogged.

Replace the filter as follows:

1.Move the hose clamps away from the filter. Use flat-nosed pliers.

2.Pull the filter loose from the hose ends.

3.Push the new filter into the hose ends. Position the filter with the ”FLOW” arrow pointing up toward the fuel pump. If necessary, a soap solution can be applied to the filter ends to ease mounting.

4.Move the hose clamps back toward the filter.

Checking the Fuel Pump’s Air Filter

Regularly check that the fuel pump’s air filter is free from dirt.

On Kohler engine, removal of the pump screws is not needed, due to the filter facing outwards.

Remove the screws and open the pump, no hoses need be removed.

The filter can be cleaned with a brush if necessary.
