Refueling
Filler inlet A of the fuel tank is located on the right in traveling direction.
1. Stop and park the machine. Stop the engine. See “Preparing
lubrication”.
2. Unlock the lock on filler inlet A with the starting key.
3. Remove the filler cap.
4. Refuel.
5. Close the filler cap.
Stationary fuel pumps
If possible, refuel only from stationary fuel pumps. Fuel from barrels or
cans is usually dirty.
Even the smallest particles of dirt can 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:
• Barrels must neither be rolled nor tilted before refueling.
• Protect the suction pipe opening of the barrel pump with a fine-mesh
screen.
• Immerse it down to a max. 15 cm (5.85 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.
