DANGER
Because diesel fuel is flammable, use caution
when storing or handling it. Do not smoke while
filling the fuel tank. Do not fill fuel tank while en-
gine is running, hot or when machine is in an en-
closed area. Always fill fuel tank outside and
wipe up any spilled diesel fuel before starting the
engine. Store fuel in a clean, safety- -approved
container and keep cap in place. Use diesel fuel
for the engine only; not for any other purpose.

Check Fuel Lines and Connections

Check fuel lines and connections as recommended in
the Traction Unit Operator's Manual. Check lines for de-
terioration, damage, leaking or loose connections. Re-
place 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.
