4.5 Fuel
Fuel type
All types of diesel fuel that meet the minimum requirements of the following
specifications are suitable:
▪ Europe: EN 590
▪ UK: BS 2869 A1 / A2
▪ USA: ASTM D 975-09a 1-D S15 or 2-D S15
CAUTION
Danger of engine damage from low quality fuel.
The use of fuel that does not meet the specifications can lead to
engine damage.
▪ The use of fuel that does not meet specifications requires
approval by Motorenfabrik HATZ (main plant).
CAUTION
Danger of malfunctions due to old fuel.
When diesel fuel is stored in a fuel tank or canister for lengthy
periods, deposits may form on account of fuel aging. These de-
posits result in malfunctions due to clogged fuel filters and dam-
age to the injection system.
▪ Perform the prescribed storage steps in machines that will
be out of use for more than three months (see section
10.1
Storing the machine, page 95 ).
▪ Only refuel with fresh diesel fuel such as can be obtained
from filling stations.

leum in advance:
