Fuel system
DANGER: Observe usual fuel handling precautions:
Do not smoke while refueling.
Do not fill tank with engine running or while engine is hot.
Clean up any gasoline spills.
Allow engine to cool before storing machine inside a
building.
Keep fuel away from open flame or spark and store machine
away from open flame or spark if there is fuel in the tank.
Use extra caution when handling gasoline and other fuels.
They are flammable and vapors are explosive. A fire or
explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can
damage property.
Refuel outdoors preferably, or in well ventilated areas.
Never attempt to start engine when there is a strong odor of
gasoline fumes present. Locate and correct cause.
Store gasoline in an approved container and keep it out of the
reach of children. Never buy more than a 30 day supply of
gasoline.
Always place gasoline containers on the ground away from
your vehicle before filling.
Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
or trailer as interior carpets or plastic truck bed liners may
insulate the container and slow the loss of any static charge.
When practical, remove equipment from the truck or trailer
and refuel the equipment with its wheels on the ground. If
this is not possible, then refuel the equipment on the truck or
trailer using a portable container and not a gasoline dispenser
nozzle. If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep the
nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container
opening at all times until fueling is complete.
Read and observe safety precautions elsewhere in this
manual.
WARNING: Gasoline or diesel fuel is harmful or fatal if
swallowed.
Long-term exposure to vapors can cause serious injury and
illness.
Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors.
Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or conditioner
opening.
Keep gas away from eyes and skin.
WARNING: Fuel System Under Pressure! The EFI fuel
system operates under high pressure, and the fuel filter and
fuel line used must be approved system components only.
Use of substitute parts can result in system failure, gasoline
leakage and possible explosion.
Gasoline units
The fuel tanks are located in the tractor’s fenders.
Use regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher.
IMPORTANT: Never use methanol, gasoline containing methanol, or
gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol because the fuel system could be
damaged. Do not mix oil with gasoline.
A fuel shut-off valve is located on each tractor. The location and
operation of the fuel valve will vary depending upon the unit. Close the
fuel valve to prevent fuel flow to the engine. The valve’s two other
positions will allow fuel to be drawn from either one or the other fuel tank.
Fig. 4-4
Diesel units
The fuel tanks are located in the tractor’s fenders. This engine requires
number 2 diesel fuel only.
Super Z Diesel tractors are equipped with a fuel shutoff valve located to
the right rear of the seat. Rotate the valve to the middle position to allow
fuel to flow from the right fuel tank to the fuel pump. The right position
prevents fuel flow to the fuel pump. The left position allows fuel to flow
from the left fuel tank to the fuel pump. Close this valve to prevent fuel
flow to the engine when servicing the fuel system or when transporting the
unit on a trailer or truck.
Engine oil and filter
Check engine oil daily and after every 4 hours of operation. Tractor
must be setting level when checking oil. Refer to engine manual and
maintenance schedule for oil recommendation and capacities.
Change the engine oil and filter after the first 5 hours of operation, per
the engine manufacturer’s recommendations after that. If tractor is being
operated in extremely dirty conditions, then it is recommended oil be
changed more frequently.

Perform engine air filter maintenance per the Service Interval chart
shown elsewhere in this manual.
A specially designed dry filter is standard equipment on these tractors
and supplies clean combustion air to the engine. Fig. 4-5
Recommended service procedure
1. Release clamps and remove element. Clean the canister with a damp
cloth.
2. Before installing a new element, inspect it by placing a bright light
inside and rotate the element slowly, looking for any holes or tears in the
paper. Also check gaskets for cuts or tears. Do not attempt to use a
damaged element which will allow abrasive particles to enter the engine.
3. Reinstall the dust cup. Make sure it seals all the way around the air
cleaner body, then tighten the clamps.
4. Check all fittings and clamps periodically for tightness and inspect
hoses for holes or cracks.
5. Periodically check the intake hose for signs of ingested dust. Locate
