•
Do not add or drain fuel in an enclosed space.
•
Do not store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such
as on a water heater or other appliance.
•
If you spill fuel, do not attempt to start the engine;
avoid creating any source of ignition until the fuel
vapors have dissipated.
Adding Fuel
Recommended Fuel
Use only clean, fresh diesel fuel or biodiesel fuels with
low (<500 ppm) or ultra low (<15 ppm) sulfur content.
The minimum cetane rating should be 40. Purchase
fuel in quantities that you can use within 180 days to
ensure fuel freshness.
Use summer-grade diesel fuel (No. 2-D) at
temperatures above -7°C (20°F) and winter grade
(No. 1-D or No. 1-D/2-D blend) below that
temperature. Using winter-grade fuel at lower
temperatures provides lower flash point and cold flow
characteristics, which eases starting and reduces fuel
filter plugging.
Using summer-grade fuel above -7°C (20°F)
contributes toward longer fuel pump life and increased
power compared to winter-grade fuel.
Important:
Do not use kerosene or gasoline
instead of diesel fuel. Failure to observe this
caution will damage the engine.
Biodiesel Ready
This machine can also use a biodiesel blended fuel
of up to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petrodiesel). The
petrodiesel portion should be low or ultra low sulfur.
Observe the following precautions:
•
The biodiesel portion of the fuel must meet
specification ASTM D6751 or EN14214.
•
The blended fuel composition should meet ASTM
D975 or EN590.
•
Painted surfaces may be damaged by biodiesel
blends.
•
Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blends
in cold weather.
•
Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel
as they may degrade over time.
•
Fuel filter plugging may occur for a time after
converting to biodiesel blends.
•
Contact your distributor for more information on
biodiesel.
