REPLACING THE FUEL FINE FILTER
When removing the fuel fine filter, a quantity of fuel will escape.
Collect the fuel and avoid the risk of fire.
Dirt in the fuel system can lead to significant damage to the fuel
system.
Diesel fuel is toxic and can therefore have a damaging effect on
your health. Any direct or indirect physical contact should therefore
be avoided.
In the event of contact with the skin: remove with paper or a cloth,
wash with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a doctor.
If swallowed: do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse the mouth, drink two
glasses of water and see a doctor.
In the event of inhalation: get some fresh air and rest.
Removing the fuel filter
1. Place a receptacle under the filter.
2. Remove the filter by turning it anti-clockwise.
Note:
The fuel fine filter is a disposable filter and, therefore, may not be cleaned and
reused.
Fitting the fuel filter
1. Lightly lubricate the sealing ring (see arrow in illustration) with clean engine oil
(not diesel fuel).
2. Fit the filter unfilled until the sealing ring abuts and manually rotate it a ∂ to •
turn further.
3. Bleed the fuel system. See "BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM".
4. Start the engine and check for leaks. If necessary, retighten the filter by hand.
