TM help

[Tackettr]

I can down-load every TM for the 809 series except TM 9-2320-260-20. I think this is the one I really need for changing fuel filters. Can anyone help me out. I have an 817 to recover this weekend and have been told it may need some filters. This is my first 5 ton so I'm trying to get read-up on it. Thanks.

Have you looked in our TM section here??

Very easy to do, even an old guy like myself did it. 1 bolt in the top of the bowl secures the entire unit. However, the trick is priming it (if you lose prime) and the TM is worthless. We tried everything when we ran out of fuel and had to flat tow it home. It would not self prime with a full tank. Once home, it took 5 minutes to prime by pulling a suction on the lift pump inlet line using a suction pump. pm me and I will send you pictures and detailed instructions. Try not to lose prime. This is the easiest filter you will ever change. Big and very accessable..

atankersdad: Thanks for the help and insite. It appears there is only 1 large filter on the 809s not counting a small one in the pump? I was expecting 3 like on the M35s.

mangus: Yes, that's where I downloaded the others from. The TM 9-2320-260-20 just won't download for some reason.

I will pm you my phone number should you run into losing prime. I have gotten so much help from others here that I am more than glad to help.
