TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Important
• Use the same type of diesel fuel as used in cars (EN 590 for
E.U. - ASTM D975 regulation - S 15 for U.S). Use of other types
of fuel could damage the engine. Do not use dirty diesel fuel
or mixtures of diesel fuel and water since this would cause
serious engine faults.
• Any failures resulting from the use of fuels
other than recommended will not be warranted.
Warning
• Clean fuel prevents the fuel injectors from clogging.
Immediately clean up any spillage during refuelling.
• Never store diesel fuel in galvanized containers (i.e. coated
with zinc). Diesel fuel and the galvanized coating react
chemically to each other, producing flaking that quickly clogs
filters or causes fuel pump and/or injector failure.
2.5.1 Fuel for low temperatures
• For the operation of the engine at temperatures lower
than 0 ° C suitable for use fuels normally distributed by
the oil companies and in any case corresponding to the
specifications of Tab. 2.5.
• These fuels reduce the formation of paraffin in diesel at low
temperatures.
• When paraffin forms in the diesel, the fuel filter becomes
blocked interrupting the flow of fuel.
2.5.2 Biodiesel fuel
• Fuels containing less than 10% methyl ester or B10, are
suitable for use in this engine provided that they meet the
specifications listed in the Tab. 2.5.
• DO NOT USE vegetable oil as a biofuel for this engine.
