IMPORTANT NOTES:
Hybrid use of oils of different brands and manufacturers can affect the service performance of the
machine. Their use is not recommended.
NOTE:
1. Never fill fuel into the fuel tank while the diesel engine is running, as doing so, could cause an accident.
2. When working in severe sunlight, the fuel tank should not be filled up, or the fuel may overflow as a
result of expansion. The overflowed fuel should be cleaned up immediately.
