STOPPING THE ENGINE
4
Diesel fuel in the presence of an ig-
nition source (such as a cigarette)
could cause an explosion. A mixture
of gasoline or alcohol with diesel fuel
increases this risk of explosion. Do
not remove a fuel tank cap near an
open ame. Use only the fuel and/or
additives recommended for your en
-
gine. Failure to comply may result in
death, personal injury, equipment or
property damage.
WARNING!
Specication: Use only Ultra
Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) Fuel,
as recommended by engine
manufacturers. If you need further
information on fuel specications,
consult the Engine Operation and
Maintenance Manual.
Location of
Fuel Shut-Off Valves
If your
vehicle is equipped with shut-off
valves for the take-off and return lines,
they are located on the fuel lines
entering the top of the fuel tank. Fuel
shut-off valves for the fuel crossover
line are on the bottom of the fuel tank,
at the crossover line connection.
Refuel Before the Final Stop
Air space in your fuel tanks allows
water to condense there. To prevent
this condensation while you are
stopped, ll your tanks to 95% of
capacity.
