Warning
•  Fuel is highly flammable and dangerous. Fuel line spills and leakage can cause serious injury or death, and damage to equipment. If fuel comes into contact with the skin and eyes it will cause irritation. To prevent this, always perform the “Fuel Line Safety Procedure” referring to the “BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE”.
•  A person charged with static electricity could cause a fire or explosion, resulting in death or serious injury. Before servicing the fuel system, make sure to discharge static electricity by touching a vehicle.
Caution
•  If parts are exposed to the fuel, their function may be decreased or a fire may occur. Spread a rag to absorb any leaked fuel.
•  If fuel does not pass through the fuel filter, it could cause a fuel system malfunction. Therefore, do not install the fuel hoses (main and return side) in reverse. Always refer to the “AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION” before installing the fuel hose, and execute the “Fuel Hose Installation Procedure”.
