14 Fuel (Diesel)
14 FUEL (DIESEL)
14.1 Fuel Requirements
The EPA has adopted multiple tiers of emission standards to reduce
emissions from non-road diesel engines. From 2007 to 2014, Low
Sulfur Diesel (LSD) fuel and Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel was
phased in for non-road, locomotive, and marine (NRLM) diesel fuel.
This off-road diesel requires ULSD rated fuel that meets the EPA
Non-road Diesel Fuel Standards (https://www.epa.gov/diesel-fuel-
standards).
Damages, performance or service concerns determined to be caused
by the use of non-approved fuels, including any grade of gasoline or
form of bio-diesel fuel not meeting the specifications outlined above
are not considered to be defects in material or factory workmanship
and are not covered under the limited warranty or EPA limited war-
ranty.
Do not use diesel fuel additives in a diesel equipped
ROXOR, this will damage the injectors voiding your warranty cov-
erage.
Do not put gasoline in a diesel equipped ROXOR.
Gasoline will prematurely ignite in a diesel engine which can lead to
engine damage, voiding all of your warranty coverage. Gasoline con-
tamination can also damage the fuel pump and diesel injectors,
which would also void all of your warranty coverage.
14.2 Fueling Procedure
1. Stop the engine.
2. Only fill the fuel tank in a well ventilated area.
3. Have the operator and passenger get out of the ROXOR.
4. Unscrew fuel reservoir cap slowly by turning it counterclockwise
to remove it.
5. Insert the fuel spout into the fuel filler neck.
6. Pour fuel slowly so that air can escape from the tank and pre-
vent fuel flow back and spills.
7. Stop filling before the fuel reaches the bottom of filler neck. Do
not overfill or spill fuel.
8. Fully tighten fuel reservoir cap by turning it clockwise until a
ratchet noise is heard.
All fuel handling must take place in a well-ventilated
area. Avoid heat, flames and other sources of ignition, avoid inhal-
ation of vapors and contact with skin and eyes, do not siphon diesel
fuel by mouth, never fill a fuel container inside the ROXOR as the
interior surfaces are coated, acting as an insulator and allowing static
electricity to build up, help guard against static discharges by always
filling approved containers on the ground, do not allow anyone to
remain in the ROXOR while fueling, an occupant may not be able to
leave the area quickly in an emergency, failure to follow these warn-
ings may result in severe injury or death.
