SEDIMENT CUP CLEANING
The sediment cup prevents dirt or water that 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. Turn the engine switch to the OFF
position and remove the key.
2. Turn the fuel valve lever to the
OFF position; then remove the
sediment cup and the O-ring.
Discard the O-ring.
3. Clean the sediment cup in
nonflammable solvent, and dry it
thoroughly.
4. Reinstall a new O-ring and
sediment cup, and tighten the
sediment cup securely.
5. Turn the fuel valve lever to the ON
position and check for leaks.
Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive.

• Stop the engine and let it cool before
handling fuel.
• Keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
