Replacement of the fuel filter

Replace the fuel filter every 100 running hours (once per season) or more frequently if it is clogged.

Replace the filter as follows:

1. Release the rubber strap under the seat and raise the engine hood.

2. Move the hose clips away from the filter. Use a pair of flat pliers.

3.Pull off the filter from the hose ends.

4.Press the new filter into the ends of the hoses. Turn the filter so that the “FLOW” arrow is pointing upwards towards the fuel pump. If necessary apply liquid detergent to the ends of the filter to facilitate connection.

5.Push the hose clips back on the filter and tighten.

The filter can when necessary be cleaned with a brush.

1.Remove the two screws that hold the fuel pump.
