Fuel sediment cup cleaning

The sediment cup prevents dirt or water which may be in the fuel tank from

entering the carburetor. If the engine has not been run for a long time, the

sediment cup should be cleaned.

1. Open the left side maintenance cover.

2. Turn the engine switch to the OFF position. Remove the sediment cup

by turning it counterclockwise.

3. Clean the cup and O-ring in nonflammable or high flashpoint solvent.

4. Reinstall the O-ring and sediment cup. Tighten securely.

5. Close and latch the left side maintenance cover.

After installing the sediment cup, check for fuel leaks and make

sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
