termine the correct type of diesel fuel to be
used.
CAUTION
In northern climates during the winter season,
winter diesel fuel must be used to prevent fuel
gelling. Gelling could cause the engine to stop
or make it impossible to start.
2. Removing The Fuel Cap:
Rotate the fuel cap slowly and only far enough
for the pressure to be released i.e. until you
hear a "hissing" sound. Wait until the “hissing”
sound stops. Then remove the cap.
3. Filling The Tank:
Do not overfi ll the fuel tank. Fill only until the
automatic shut-off valve cuts out. This allows

the fuel warms up in the fuel tank.
4. Fuel Tank Capacity:
Check in the Chassis Manual for capacities.

fuel tank. This fuel pickup is shorter than the
engine pickup tube to prevent the vehicle from
being without fuel while on site.
b. In the case of a Propane powered genera-
tor, the main propane tank supplies the fuel for
the generator.
