Fuel

DANGER
Explosion and Fire. Fuel and vapors are
extremely flammable and explosive. Add fuel
in a well ventilated area. Keep fire and spark
away. Failure to do so will result in death
or serious injury.
DANGER
Explosion and Fire. Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill to
1/2 inch from top of tank to allow for fuel expansion.
Overfilling may cause fuel to spill onto engine causing
fire or explosion, which will result in death or
serious injury.
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT use Home
Heating Oil or Bio-Diesel Fuel.
Use No. 2D diesel fuel when temperatures are
above freezing. When temperatures are below
freezing, blend No.1D diesel fuel and No. 2D
diesel fuel together for a climate adjusted fuel
ratio.
Diesel fuel must meet the following require-
ments:
• Sulfur content of 15 parts per million (ppm)
maximum.
• Minimum Cetane index of 40.
NOTE: Low ambient temperatures as well as
engine operation at high altitudes may require
the use of fuels with higher Cetane ratings.
Fuel Maintenance
• Always treat diesel fuel for long term stor-
age. Use the approved fuel additive and
water abatement material. Test stored fuel
every 90 days and provide additional treat-
ment if required. Periodically check and dry
abatement material as necessary.
