MAINTENANCE SERVICE

1. FUEL SYSTEM (TANK, PIPE LINE AND

CONNECTION, AND FUEL TANK FILLER TUBE

CAP) (CHECK FOR LEAKS)

M10001000016USA0000010000

ZC6033310000

Fuel main pipe

Fuel high-pressure tube

Check for damage or leakage in the fuel lines and connections.

2. FUEL HOSES (CHECK CONDITION)

M10001000017USA0000010000

Inspect the surface of fuel hoses for heat and mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts,
abrasions and excessive swelling indicate deterioration of the
rubber.

If the fabric casing of the rubber hose is exposed by cracks
and abrasions in the fuel system, the hoses should be
replaced.

3. AIR CLEANER ELEMENT (REPLACE)

M10001000018USA0000010000

ZC6038320000

The air cleaner element will become dirty during use, reducing
its effectiveness. Replace it with a new one.

Replacement of air cleaner element:

Unclasp the air cleaner housing.

Remove the air cleaner element and install a new one.

When clamping the air cleaner housing in place, be sure that
the cover is completely closed.
