Biodiesel Ready
This machine can also use a biodiesel blended fuel
of up to B20 (20% biodiesel, 80% petrodiesel). The
petrodiesel portion should be low or ultra low sulfur.
Observe the following precautions:
•
The biodiesel portion of the fuel meet specification
ASTM D6751 or EN14214.
•
The blended fuel composition should meet ASTM
D975 or EN590.
•
Painted surfaces may be damaged by biodiesel
blends.
•
Use B5 (biodiesel content of 5%) or lesser blend
in cold weather.
•
Monitor seals, hoses, gaskets in contact with fuel
as they may degrade over time.
•
Fuel filter plugging may be expected for a time
after converting to biodiesel blends.
•
Contact your distributor for more information on
biodiesel.
Filling the Fuel Tank
1. Park the machine on level ground.
2. Shut off the engine and engage the parking
brake.
3. Clean around the fuel-tank cap.
4. Fill the fuel tank to the bottom of the filler neck
(Figure 7).
Note:
Do not fill the fuel tank completely full.
The empty space in the tank allows the fuel to
expand.
Switching the Fuel Tanks
Important:
Do not allow the machine to run out
of fuel, as this can damage the machine.
The fuel-selector valve is located behind the left side
of the seat.
The machine has 2 fuel tanks. One tank is on the left
side and 1 on the right side. Each tank connects to
the fuel-selector valve. From there a common fuel line
leads to the engine
To use the left fuel tank, rotate the fuel-selector
valve to the left. To use the right fuel tank, rotate the
fuel-selector valve to the right
Close the fuel-selector valve before transporting or
storing the machine.
