Maintenance
Stationary fuel pumps
General
Only refuel from stationary fuel pumps. Fuel from barrels or cans is usually contaminated.
Even the smallest particles of dirt may cause
• Increased engine wear
• Malfunctions in the fuel system and
• Reduced effectiveness of the fuel filters.
Refueling from barrels
If refueling from barrels cannot be avoided, note the following points (see fig. 74):
• Barrels must neither be rolled nor tilted before refueling
• Protect the suction pipe opening of the barrel pump with a fine-mesh strainer
• Immerse it down to a max. 15 cm (5.9 in.) above the floor of the barrel
• Only fill the tank using refueling aids (funnels or filler pipes) with integral microfilter
• Keep all refueling containers clean at all times
