Avoid static electricity when fueling. Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD)
poses a greater static ignition hazard than earlier diesel formulations. Avoid death or
serious injury from fire or explosion. Consult with your fuel system supplier to ensure the
delivery system is in compliance with fueling standards for proper grounding and bonding
practices.
NOTICE: Use only Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (less than 15ppm sulfur content in US and Canada or 10 mg/
kg sulfur content in Japan) in this unit. Operating with higher sulfur content will increase emissions and
violate regulations.
IMPORTANT: Fuel sulfur content should be less than 10,000 ppm (10,000 mg/kg). Worldwide, fuel
sulfur regulations vary widely. Fuel used should always comply with local regulations. Prior to shipping,
this unit was filled with API CJ-4 DEO. If operating fuel with sulfur content above 500 ppm (500 mg/kg),
change oil initially at 50 hours.
