Inspect and Clean Fuel Sump Screen
NOTE:
Early model tractors were not equipped with a sump screen.
Late models tractors with sump screen should not require service unless fuel supply is disrupted due to contaminates in tank.
CAUTION:
Fuel tanks must be completely drained before removing sump screen.
IMPORTANT:
If adaptor is removed, clamp should only be loosened slightly. If clamp is removed plastic boss could relax making it difficult to reinstall adaptor. Adaptor has a pipe thread which seals with fuel tank. Apply LOCTITE
