Specific safety instructions
Warning!
Fire and fume inhalation hazards.
• Do not refuel in closed rooms.
• Never perform maintenance or repair work on the fuel system in the
vicinity of open flames or sparks.
• Never smoke when working on the fuel system or when refueling.
• Before refueling, stop the engine and remove the starting key.
• Wipe up any fuel spills immediately.
• Remove spilled fuel from the machine components and surfaces before

Refueling
The fuel fill inlet A in fig. 102 is located behind the cab, on the right in driving direction.
Environment!
Use a suitable container to collect the fuel as it drains and dispose of it in an environmen-
tally friendly manner!
Important!
Do not run the fuel tank completely dry. Otherwise, air will be drawn into the fuel
system. This requires bleeding the fuel system – see Bleeding the fuel system on
page 5-4.
Important!
Fill up the tank with the correct fuel type at the end of each working day. This pre-
vents condensation water from forming in the fuel tank overnight. Do not fill the
tank completely but leave some space for the fuel to expand.
