Fueling The Heater Trailer
WARNING
Attempting to fuel the heater trailer with the engine or heat-
er units running could cause fire resulting in death or seri-
ous injury. Always make sure the engine and heater units
are shut down before adding fuel to the fuel tanks.
The heater trailer can be equipped with either a single fuel
tank or three individual fuel tanks. The single fuel tank sup-
plies the engine and the two heater units. The single wall tank
has a capacity of 190 gallons (719 L), and the double wall
tank has a capacity of 175 gallons (662 L). When equipped
with three tanks, a 53 gallon (201 L) tank supplies fuel to the
engine, and two 105 gallon (397 L) tanks supply fuel to the
heater units, one tank for each heater. The three fuel tanks
are not cross-connected. You must fill each tank separately.
The fuel tank cap(s) (A, Figure 16) are located on top of the
heater trailer. When equipped with three tanks, the tanks are
labeled as to function and capacity.
If your heater trailer is equipped with a single fuel tank, you
must follow the engine manufacturer’s recommendations for
fuel for the engine.
If your heater trailer is equipped with three fuel tanks, you
may choose to use a different fuel in the two heater fuel
tanks. However, you must follow the engine manufacturer’s
recommendations for fuel for the engine. Make sure which
fuel tank you are filling before you re-fuel it.
See “General Engine Fuel Information” in Maintenance sec-
tion for information on the engine fuel that may be used.
NOTICE
Using engine fuels other that those recommended by the
engine manufacturer could cause damage to your engine or
its emission control system resulting in voiding the engine
manufacturer’s warranty. Always read and follow the engine
manufacturer’s fuel recommendations.
