4. CHECK FUEL LEVELS
!
CAUTION: Only diesel fuel can be used. The fuel
must be filtered. Fuel should be free of water or dust
as this can result in problems with the fuel injection
generator and nozzle.
FILLING THE FUEL TANK - With the engine stopped,
check the fuel level gauge. Refill the fuel tank if
necessary.
• Use clean, fresh, regular diesel fuel only.
• DO NOT mix with other fuels.
• Be sure not to fill above the upper limit mark,
always fill to the level indicator, or fill to 25mm
below full level (to allow room for fuel expansion in
hot temperatures).
!
DANGER: FIRE OR EXPLOSION - Diesel is
flammable and explosive. A fire or explosion can cause
severe burns or death.
• Keep flammable items away while handling diesel
fuel.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors and in a well-ventilated area
with the engine stopped.
• Always wipe off spilled fuel and wait until the fuel
has dried before starting the engine.
• DO NOT operate the engine with known leaks in
the fuel system.
• Use proper fuel storage and handling procedures.
DO NOT store fuel or other flammable materials
nearby.
• Empty the fuel tank before storing or transporting
this engine.
• Keep fire extinguisher handy and be prepared if a
fire starts.
!
CAUTION: To insure easy starting, do not use fuel
left over from the previous season.
5. ELECTRICAL DEVICES
!
NOTE: Disconnect all electrical devices from the
generator before starting the engine.
• The generator may be hard to start with electrical
devices connected.
