7-3. Fuel Inspection

Warning: Fire
• Always be sure to stop the engine when inspecting fuel or refueling, and
absolutely never perform such tasks near fire or other open flame. Wait until the
engine has completely cooled before inspecting fuel or refueling.
Check that there is sufficient fuel and add fuel if insufficient.
After refueling, securely tighten the tank cap.
<Note>
• Use ASTM D975 No. 2-D diesel fuel. Do
not use a substitute fuel of unknown
quality as this can negatively affect the
engine.
• Use a cold-weather fuel that conforms
to ASTM standards if using the
equipment in a cold weather region.
• Always be sure to use the fuel strainer attached to the fuel inlet.
• Add fuel until the tank is slightly less than full.
