Stationary fuel pumps

Even the smallest particles of dirt can cause increased engine wear,
malfunctions in the fuel system and reduced effectiveness of the fuel
filters.

Refueling from barrels

If refueling from barrels cannot be avoided, note the following points:
• Barrels must neither be rolled nor tilted before refueling.
• Protect the suction pipe opening of the barrel pump with a fine-mesh
screen.
• Immerse the suction pipe opening down to a max. 15 cm (6 in) above
the bottom of the barrel.
• Only fill the tank using refueling aids (funnels or filler pipes) with an
integral microfilter.
• Keep all refueling containers clean.
