CLEANING OF FUEL FILTER
WARNING: INFLAMMABLES STRICTLY PROHIBITED
Interval of Cleaning and Inspection: Monthly (every 50 operating hours)
Suction head in the fuel tank
– The fuel filter (1) of the suction head is used to filler the fuel required by the
carburetor.
– A periodical visual inspection of the fuel filter is to be conducted. For that
purpose open the tank cap, use a wire hook and pull out the suction head
through the tank opening. Filters found to have hardened, been polluted or
clogged up are to be replaced.
– Insufficient fuel supply can result in the admissible maximum speed being
exceeded. It is therefore important to replace the fuel filter at least quarterly to
ensure satisfactory fuel supply to the carburetor.
