Fuel Line

WARNING

Fuel is flammable and explosive under certain conditions and can cause severe burns. Be prepared for fuel spillage; any spilled fuel must be completely wiped up immediately. When the fuel hose is disconnected, fuel spills out from the hose and the pipe because of residual pressure. Cover the hose connection with a piece of clean cloth to prevent fuel spillage.

Connect the prepared fuel hose [A] to the fuel outlet pipe.
Secure the fuel hose with a clamp.
Insert the fuel hose into the measuring cylinder [B].

WARNING

Wipe off spilled out fuel immediately.

Be sure to hold the measuring cylinder vertical.
