Fuel :
High speed diesel conforming to IS 1460 or DIN 51601 or
equivalent is recommended to be used as fuel.
At very low temperatures fluidity of diesel may become
insufficient due to paraffin separation. It is therefore, necessary
to mix supplementary fuel with summer or winter grade diesel.
The supplementary fuel to be used is kerosene or aviation
turbine fuel.
Ratios for mixing of supplementary fuel and diesel are shown
