9. Winter operation
Since the generator is powered by a diesel engine,
special precautions must be taken for using it in the
winter.
Use “winter diesel” to operate the diesel generator in
outdoor temperatures between -3°C to -10°C. The
change to winter diesel takes place at different times
depending on the country concerned, it is general
around the end of October. You can ask at your
filling station when this change should be made.
n If you use the diesel generator regularly, you do
not need to take any precautions since the
change to winter diesel takes place
automatically.
n If you do not use the generator for a lengthy
period during autumn, but then wish to use it
again in winter, we recommend that you keep the
tank almost empty or drain it as described in
point 8.4.
n Ask at your filling station when you should
change to winter diesel and fill the tank with
winter diesel before the onset of outdoor
temperatures of between -3°C and -10°C.
n If the diesel fuel still freezes, you must move the
diesel generator to a place where the
temperature is approximately +10°C for a period
of approximately 12 hours.
n If the tank is between halfway and full with
normal diesel fuel, this should then be drain as
described in point 8.4.
n Then fill the tank with winter diesel.
n If the tank is between empty and half-full, simply
fill it up with winter diesel.
