When replacing the diesel filter or after a repair to the fuel system that has caused it to empty, it is essential to properly prime and fill the system to facilitate the subsequent first start: generally, there is a manual pump in the system that allows you to fill and pressurise it, but this model does not have one; therefore, use a method that allows you to perform this operation through the bleed valve on the pump: remove the valve and inject fuel into it using a syringe before starting the engine (multiple attempts may be necessary).
