After finishing work, fill the fuel tank fully. As the temperature drops down, the
humidity in the fuel tank is condensed, and may be mixed with the fuel.

Check the fuel gauge and if it’s not sufficient, fill
the fuel tank with fuel. For further information
about diesel fuel, see chapter 5-1-(3), 5-1-(4), 5-

diesel for winter in cold weather.
