INSTALLATION
Numbers in parentheses refer to Fig. 1.
Note: Tighten all fasteners to standard torques listed
in Section 300-0080, STANDARD BOLT AND NUT
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury and property
damage, be sure lifting equipment is properly
secured and of adequate capacity to do the job
safely.
1. If removed, install mounting brackets (17 & 21) to
chassis mounting brackets and secure with bolts (20),
lockwashers (22) and nuts (16).
2. If removed, install heavy duty straps (18) to top of
mounting brackets (17 & 21) with overlap facils inside,
as shown in Fig. 1, and secure with nuts (19). Swing
heavy duty straps (18) clear of mounting area on
mounting brackets (17 & 21).
3. Using suitable lifting equipment, position fuel tank
(1) assembly on mounting brackets (17 & 21) and
locate heavy duty straps (18) through mounting holes
in lower end of mounting brackets (17 & 21). Secure
heavy duty straps (18) to mounting brackets (17 & 21)
with nuts (19).
4. Remove blanking caps from fuel lines and connect
fuel lines to fuel tank (1) as identified at removal.
Tighten fuel lines securely.
5. Connect electrical connections to fuel level sender
(27) and install cover (29) over fuel level sender (27).
6. Remove filler cap (5) assembly from filler neck on
fuel tank (1) and fill fuel tank (1) with fuel specified in
Section 300-0020, LUBRICATION SYSTEM. Ensure
vent hole in filler cap (5) is clear and install filler cap
(5) assembly on filler neck. Tighten filler cap (5)
securely.
7. Secure filler cap (5) on the filler neck with latch (8)
and padlock (24).
8. Open fuel shut off valve at the fuel filters.
9. Start the engine and run for a few minutes to ensure
fuel is being supplied to the engine. Check for leaks at
fuel lines and tighten if required.
10. Remove body safety pins and lower the body.
Remove wheel chocks from all road wheels.

Fuel System - Fuel Tank and Mounting
FAST FUELLING - Optional
Numbers in parentheses refer to Fig. 2, unless
otherwise specified.
A fast fuel system can be installed in the fuel tank as an
option. It involves replacing cover plate (14, Fig. 1)
with a flange and nipple receiver (1) and plug (2, Fig. 1)
with diesel fuelling vent (2). Receiver (1) is located
near the bottom of the tank for bottom filling which
helps eliminate foaming that occurs during the
traditional 'splash fill' method at the top of the tank.
The advantages of fast fuelling are:
a. Reduces the fill time by around two thirds.
b. Reduces foaming which results in a full tank and
more running time between fill-ups.
c. Reduces spillage because the nozzle automatically
shuts off when the tank is full.
d. Reduces accidents because refuelling is done from
ground level.
Operation
Numbers in parentheses refer to Fig. 2.
Attach the fast fuel nozzle to receiver (1) and turn the
handle to the 'On' position. As fuel enters the tank, it
forces the air inside the tank through the hollow stem
in fuelling vent (2). When the fuel level in the tank
nears the top, two hollow floating balls force the third
ground ball against an 'O' ring seal and stops the flow
of air from the tank. Fuel continues to flow into the tank
and pressure begins to build. At approximately 0.4 bar
2
(5.5 lbf/in ), a diaphragm operated piston inside the
nozzle starts to shut off the flow of fuel and system line
pressure picks up and brings the nozzle to the 'Off'
position. The nozzle is then disconnected from
receiver (1).
