Because diesel fuel is highly flammable, use cau-
tion when storing or handling it. Do not smoke
while filling the fuel tank. Do not fill fuel tank
while engine is running, hot, or when machine is
in an enclosed area. Always fill fuel tank outside
and wipe up any spilled diesel fuel before start-
ing the engine. Store fuel in a clean, safety- -ap-
proved container and keep cap in place. Use die-
sel fuel for the engine only; not for any other
purpose.

Check Fuel Lines and Connections

Check fuel lines and connections periodically as recom-
mended in the Traction Unit Operator's Manual. Check
lines for deterioration, damage, leaking, or loose con-
nections. Replace hoses, clamps, and connections as
necessary.

Drain and Clean Fuel Tank

Drain and clean the fuel tank periodically as recom-
mended in the Traction Unit 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 ex-
tended period. To clean fuel tank, flush tank out with
clean diesel fuel. Make sure tank is free of contaminates
and debris.
