Operation Manual of Diesel Generator
When filling the fuel tank from drums, make sure that no dust or water are mixed in the fuel. This
may lead to serious fuel-injection pump and nozzle problems.
CAUTION:
Only use the recommended diesel fuel oil.
Use of non-recommended fuel may cause the engine damage.
Fuel should have a cetane value of more than 45 in order to prevent difficult starting,
misfiring, and white exhaust smoke.
Diesel fuel oil substitutes are not recommended; they may be harmful to the fuel system
components.
Fuel should be free of water or dust because these cause trouble in the fuel injection pump
and nozzle.
After purchasing fuel: Allow drum to stand 3~4 days.
After 3~4 days: Put a suction pipe halfway into the
drum.(Water and dust accumulate in the lower position of
the drum.)
WARNING
Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped.
Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is refueled or where
gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the tank and make sure the filter cap is securely closed after refueling.
Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling . if any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry
before starting the engine.
Overfill is dangerous. Do not fill the tank beyond the
top of the red plug inside the fuel tank filter.
