4 - Periodic service
4.1 - FUEL
Fuel is flammable and can be dangerous. You should handle fuel with care.
4.1.1 - Fuel level check and refueling
1.
Check to see that the fuel level is above the lower limit of the fuel level gauge.
2.
If the fuel is too low, add fuel to the upper limit. Do not overfill.
• Cetane Rating : The minimum recommended Fuel Cetane Rating is 45. A cetane rating greater than 50
is preferred, especially for ambient temperatures below -20°C (-4°F) or elevations above 1500 m (5000 ft).
• Diesel Fuel Specification Type and Sulfur Content % (ppm) used, must be compliant with all applicable
emission regulations for the area in which the engine is operated.
• Use of diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 0.10% (1000 ppm) is strongly recommended.
• If high-sulfur fuel (sulfur content 0.50% (5000 ppm) to 1.0 % (10000 ppm) is used as a diesel fuel, change
the engine oil and oil filter at shorter intervals (approximately half).
• DO NOT USE Fuels that have sulfur content greater than1.0 % (10000 ppm).
• Diesel fuels specified to EN 590 or ASTM D975 are recommended. .
• No.2-D is a distillate fuel of lower volatility for engines in industrial and heavy mobile service.
To avoid personal injury :
• Do not mix gasoline or alcohol with diesel fuel. This mixture can cause an explosion.
• Be careful not to spill fuel during refueling. If fuel should spill, wipe it off at once, or it may cause a fire.
• Do not fail to stop the engine before refueling. Keep the engine away from the fire.
• Be sure to stop the engine while refueling or bleeding and when cleaning or changing fuel filter or fuel pipes. Do not
smoke when working around the battery or when refueling.
• Check the fuel systems at a well ventilated and wide place.
• When fuel and lubricant are spilled, refuel after letting the engine cool off.
• Always keep spilled fuel and lubricant away from engine.
