FUEL
GENERAL
The presence of impurities, even if only a few microns in size,
is enough to cause very serious damage to the injection
system.
Important: Supply the injection system with diesel that is
free from all impurities and any trace of water.
QUALITY REQUIREMENT
High fuel quality is vital for both engine performance and
durability. Only use diesel fuel that satisfies the quality
requirement of the EN 590 standard. Consult your fuel
supplier to confirm that the diesel fuel meets this standard.
Diesel biofuels can only be used if they comply with the DIN
51606 standard. The biofuel must only be used mixed with
diesel, at 5 % maximum.
Important: Untreated vegetable oils must not be used in
any concentration whatsoever.
Apart from the notion of "quality" standard, the fuel must
correspond to standard ISO 12156.2 in terms of lubricating
power.
Important: Any blend of diesel with fuels other than
biofuel is prohibited. When operating at negative
temperatures, use a diesel of the "very cold weather"
type available from your supplier.
FILLING THE TANK
It is best to fill the tank in the evening to avoid water
condensation in the tank.
1 - Clean the area around the diesel filler cap.
2 - Remove the filler cap (1) and put it in a clean dry place.
3 - After refuelling, replace and tighten the filler cap.
A - Fuel tank range ARES 500.
B - Fuel tank range ARES 600.
Note: It is recommended to filter the fuel when filling the
tank.

HANDLING THE FUEL
Important: When transporting fuel, use containers
intended for this purpose. Your container must only be
used for this purpose. The mixture, even in minute
quantities, of chemicals (treatment product, other fuel,
etc.) with your fuel will damage the engine injection
system.
Important: The fuel tank cap includes a vent system.
Make sure that the aperture is not blocked. If it
malfunctions, the engine is incorrectly fuelled, which can
lead to a breakdown and distortion of the fuel tank.
