Make sure your unit is on a flat
surface when checking the oil level.
If it is tilted, the gauge will be
inaccurate.
Overfilling can cause the engine to
consume too much oil making the
temperature dangerously high.
Conversely, not having enough oil
can cause your engine to seize up.
To check the oil level, simply dip the
dipstick into the filter neck. Do not
screw in the dipstick.
Be sure to check the engine on a
level surface with the engine
stopped.
3.2 Selecting and checking the fuel
Only use light diesel fuel.
When filling the fuel tank from the
drums, make sure that no dust or
water is mixed in the fuel. This may
lead to serious fuel-injection pump
and nozzle problems.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with
the engine stopped.
Keep smoke, flames, or sparks away
from fuel both when stored and
refueling.
Do not overfill the tank and make
sure the fuel cap is closed securely
after refueling.
Be careful not to spill fuel when
refueling. If any fuel is spilled, wipe
the area dry before starting the
engine.
Overfilling is dangerous. Do not fill the tank
beyond the top of the fuel filter shoulder.
For PM13000D ES (Silent)
Open the left door, check the fuel volume
indicator. If the fuel level is low, unscrew the
tank cap, fill the fuel through the fuel filter.
After filling fuel, screw back the tank cap.
