CAUTION
To avoid personal injury;
A Do not bleed a hot engine as this
could cause fuel to spill onto a hot
exhaust manifold creating a danger
of fire.
Air bleeding of the fuel system is required if;
A after the fuel filter and pipes have been detached
and refitted;
A after the fuel tank has become empty; or
A before the engine is to be used after a long storage.

3. Turn the engine, continue it for about 10 seconds
and then stop the engine.
4. Close the joint bolt on top of the fuel injection pump.
A Always keep the joint bolt on the fuel injection pump
closed except when air is vented, or it may cause the
engine to stop.
