1.2.1 Fuel tank
The fuel tank is a welded construction integrated with the truck frame. It is
located on the left side of the truck frame and has a capacity of 52l for 2-3.8 ton
trucks. The fuel volume sensor is installed on the tank cover to detect the fuel level.
1.2.2 Fuel volume sensor
Fig. 1-2 Fuel volume sensor
The sensor is designed to convert the remaining amount of fuel into voltage. (See
Fig.1-2) The sliding type resistor made of alloy steel wire is linked with float. As the
float moves up and down, resistance is changed. With electro-magnetic fuel meter, the
remaining amount of fuel in the fuel tank can be read off the meter panel.
1.2.3 Maintenance
Once every 100 working hours, it is required to maintain the fuel system
according to the following methods. Once every 600 working hours, it is required to
clean the fuel tank.
