Hazard of skin injuries and poisoning. Diesel fuel may cause damage to the skin in
case of direct contact. When handling diesel fuel, always wear suitable protective

The diesel fuel is pumped through the fuel filter with integrated water separator and
preheater by the electric pump to the intermediate tank (4) above the engine. The fuel
pump pumps the diesel fuel from the intermediate tank (4) through the two filters on
the diesel engine (fuel prefilter and fuel fine filter) to the high-pressure pump.
