DIESEL OIL
¥
DANGER:
Risk of explosion.
1.) Petrol, alcohol or mixtures of combustible oils
or fuels should under no circumstances be
added to the diesel oil. Mixtures of this type
can generate unpredictable hazards and
increase the risk of fire or explosion.
When
shut in the fuel tank, these mixtures can be
more explosive than pure petrol. Never use
these mixtures for any reason whatsoever
.
Special additives may be added only if
expressly approved by your local Dealer.
2.) Never open the tank cap when the engine is
running or still hot.
Under no circumstances refuel when the
engine is running or still hot.
Smoking and naked flames should be avoided
when refuelling.
3.) When refuelling, keep an eye on the fuel filler
pipe nozzle at all times.
4.) Do not top up the tank completely, leave room
for the fuel to expand.
5.) Immediately wipe up any traces of spilled fuel.
6.) Always tighten the tank cap securely.
7.) If the original fuel tank cap is lost, replace it
only by a cap approved by the manufacturer.
Another type of cap may not provide adequate
safety.
8.) Refuelling systems must always be kept clean
and operational.
9.) Never operate refuelling systems next to naked
flames.
10.) Never use diesel oil for cleaning purposes.
Required quality
The quality of diesel oil used is the most important
factor in allowing the engine to offer the
performance specified as regards fume
suppression.
It is, as a result, very important to comply with the
specifications for "allowable fuels" set out in
If a fuel with a high sulphur content is used, the
effectiveness of the exhaust fume suppression
system is progressively lowered.
This is a result of sulphur accumulating in the
catalysers, especially if exhaust temperatures are
low.
Because these sulphur deposits cannot be
removed from the catalysers, the only way to make
the system run efficiently is to replace them.
The system measures the quantity of nitrogen oxide
in the exhaust gas and if it exceeds normal levels, it
limits engine power and indicates the problem to
the operator.
