CHECKING AND REFUELING
C86O602A
(1) Fuel Tank Cap
To avoid personal injury:
Do not smoke while refueling.
Be sure to stop the engine be-
fore refueling.
Dirt or sand contained in fuel may
cause the fuel injection pump to
malfunction, use the strainer
when refuelling.
CAUTION
1. Turn the key switch to “ON”, check
the amount of fuel by fuel gauge.
2. Fill fuel tank when fuel gauge shows
1/4 or less fuel in tank.
3. Use grade No.2-Diesel fuel at tem-
peratures above -10°C (14°F).
IMPORTANT
Do not permit dirt or trash to get
into the fuel system.
Be careful not to let the fuel tank
become empty, otherwise air will
enter the fuel system, necessi-
tating bleeding before next en-
gine start.
Be careful not to spill during
refueling. If should spill, wipe it
off at once, or it may cause a fire.
To prevent condensation (water)
accumulation in the fuel tank, fill
the tank before parking overnight.
Dirt may block the vent hole for the fuel
tank, thus causing the engine to lose
power, periodically clear the vent hole
and do not cover.
NOTE
No.2-D is a distillate fuel of lower vola-
tility for engines in industrial and heavy
mobile service. (SAE J313 JUN87)
