Checking the Fuel
Overview
Check the fuel level regularly to ensure a constant fuel supply to the
WhisperGen
TM
. How often the fuel needs to be checked and replenished
depends on the operating conditions of the WhisperGen
TM
and the size of the
fuel tank.
In general, the WhisperGen
TM
consumes 0.5 to 0.85 litres of fuel per hour of
operation.
Use only good quality automotive diesel (EN590 or BS2869: 2000
burner fuel class A2, D, minimum flash point, closed 56°C). Do not use other
fuel types such as bio diesel, heating oil, petrol or aviation fuel
.
Procedure
To check the fuel level:
1. Remove the fuel tank cap. The fuel tank is located outside the
WhisperGen
TM
and is typically within five metres of it.
2. Ensure that the fuel level is adequate. The fuel level must be higher than
the fuel outlet point at all times.

3. Replenish fuel if necessary, taking care not to spill any on or in the
vicinity of the WhisperGen
TM
.
4. Replace the fuel tank cap.
If the fuel tank is empty and a fuel-related error message is displayed on the
control panel, you will need to bleed the fuel line before the WhisperGen
TM
can be operated normally again.
If you need to bleed the fuel line then see bleed the fuel system.
