DANGER
Because diesel fuel is highly flammable, use cau-
tion when storing or handling it. Do not smoke
while filling the fuel tank. Do not fill fuel tank
while engine is running, hot, or when machine is
in an enclosed area. Always fill fuel tank outside
and wipe up any spilled diesel fuel before start-
ing the engine. Store fuel in a clean, safety-ap-
proved container and keep cap in place. Use die-
sel fuel for the engine only; not for any other pur-
pose.
Check Fuel Lines and Connections
Check fuel lines and connections periodically as recom-
mended in the maintenance schedules in Chapter 2 -
Product Records.
1. Park machine on a level surface, lower cutting units,
stop engine, engage parking brake, and remove key
from the ignition switch.
2. Check lines for deterioration, damage, leaking, or
loose connections. Replace hoses, clamps, and con-
nections as necessary.
