Open the inlet valve of the water
separator slowly to prevent fuel in the
water separator from spilling out.
Wrap a cloth around the water
separator.
* Otherwise, spilled fuel may be ignited, which
could cause a fire.
Tighten the cover and cock on the
water separator appropriately.
* If the tightening torque is too weak, fuel may
leak, causing a fire or fuel flow-out, which could
lead to environmental pollution.
Clean the gauze filter properly.
* A clogged gauze filter may result in insufficient
fuel supply, low power output, or engine stall
during operation.
When replacing the gauze filter,
tighten the new one under the same
condition as the old one was installed.
* If the tightening torque is too weak, fuel may
leak, causing a fire or fuel flow-out, which could
lead to environmental pollution.
Do not pour fuel into the fuel filter
before installing it.
* Otherwise, it may cause serious personal injury,
environmental pollution due to fuel running to
outside of the facility, or damage to the devices.
* Follow the installation procedure described in
this Operation & Maintenance Manual.
Use a genuine fuel filter.
* If a non-genuine filter is used, , deterioration in
the exhaust gas properties and damage to the
devices could occur due to insufficient air
intake.
* Faults or damages caused by using non-
genuine parts will be outside the scope of the
warranty.
Do not use a fuel filter with a scratch
or dent.
* Otherwise, damage to the filter or fuel leak may
occur, which could cause a fire or
environmental pollution due to fuel running to
outside of the facility.
Do not use a filter wrench when
installing the fuel filter.
* It may cause a dent or damage to the fuel filter.
If fuel spills out while removing the
fuel filter, wipe off with a waste cloth.
* Otherwise, it may cause a fire or environmental
pollution due to fuel running to outside of the
facility.
* The waste cloth used to wipe off fuel shall be
discarded in according with the local laws and
regulations as well as the manufacturer's SDS.
Check the specification of the fuel
filter when installing it.
* The fuel filter of which specification does not
apply to the fuel may cause damage to the
devices.
Never cut the seal of the fuel control
link.
* If you cut the seal, damage to the engine or
deterioration in the exhaust gas properties
could occur.
* In case that the seal is cut, warranty will
become invalid.
Make sure there is no looseness or
play at the fuel control link.
* Otherwise, the engine may overrun.
When checking the fuel control link,
do not insert your finger into the
moving parts.
* Otherwise, you may get injured.
