    FUEL MAY LEAK FROM FUEL TANK

    Defect

    It has been identified due to the method used to mount the fuel tank that under certain engine conditions it is possible for a hairline crack to develop in the fuel tank. This can result in the fuel tank leaking.

    Remedy

    Recalled machines will have the fuel tank removed and visually inspected for cracks following which the tank will be subject to pressure testing. If the tank should be found to leak it will be replaced. In any event all affected machines will be fitted with a re-designed fuel tank mounting kit to prevent future problems.
