DANGER
Because diesel fuel is highly flammable, use
caution when storing or handling it. Do not
smoke while filling the fuel tank. Do not fill fuel
tank while engine is running, when engine is hot
or when machine is in an enclosed area. Always
fill fuel tank outside and wipe up any spilled die-
sel fuel before starting the engine. Store fuel in a
clean, safety- -approved container and keep con-
tainer cap in place. Use diesel fuel for the engine
only; not for any other purpose.
Check Fuel Hoses and Connections
Check fuel hoses and connections periodically as rec-
ommended in the Operator's Manual. Check fuel hoses
for deterioration, damage, leakage or loose connec-
tions. Replace fuel hoses, clamps and connections as
necessary.
Drain and Clean Fuel Tank
Drain and clean the fuel tank periodically as recom-
mended in the Operator's Manual. Also, drain and clean
the fuel tank if the fuel system becomes contaminated
or if the machine is to be stored for an extended period.
To clean fuel tank, flush tank out with clean diesel fuel.
Make sure tank is free of all contaminates and debris.
