FILL FUEL TANK
1. At end of each work day, fill fuel tank. Add
fuel through fuel fill cap (Figure 14). When
working at a temperature of 0°C (32°F) or
higher, use ASTM No. 2-D or its
equivalent. At temperatures below 0°C
(32°F) use ASTM No. 1-D or its equivalent.
NOTE: See “Fluid Capacities” on
page 4-5, for capacity and
“Table of Recommended
Lubricants” on page 4-3, of this
manual for recommended fuel
for the operating conditions.
2. Securely tighten cap after fueling.
NOTE: If breather holes in cap are
clogged, a vacuum may form in
the tank preventing proper fuel
flow to engine. Keep holes in
fuel cap clean.

compartment to verify that fuel system is
not leaking. If any is noted, determine the
source of leak and repair.
