Usage Recommendations

• Use No. 2 diesel fuel exclusively for this machine’s engine to prevent power loss and excessive fuel consumption. In extremely cold conditions, a temporary mix of No. 1 and No. 2 diesel may be used.
• Consult your fuel dealer for appropriate winter fuel blend requirements. If fuel temperature falls below the cloud point, it may cause the engine to lose power or fail to start.
• Ensure the diesel fuel meets Specifications D975-81 of the ASTM.

Fuel Storage

For prolonged fuel storage, guard against contamination by keeping the fuel storage tank cool and outdoors. Regularly remove any water from the tank to avoid common engine problems associated with water in the fuel. Always fill the fuel tank at the end of the day to minimize condensation and maintain fuel quality.
