Adblue® / Def - Prinoth BISON Operating And Maintenance Manual

Snow groomer BISON
If diesel fuels with a sulphur content of more than 0.3% by weight are used, the engine oil change
must be performed at shorter intervals. Consult information from Caterpillar.
AdBlue®/DEF is not a fuel additive and must not be filled into the diesel tank. If AdBlue®/DEF makes
it into the diesel tank, engine damage may result.
Do not fill benzine into vehicles with diesel engines. Even small amounts of benzine cause damage to
the fuel system and engine.
If you have accidentally fuelled up with the wrong fuel, do not start the engine. Otherwise the fuel can
reach the fuel line. Inform a qualified service centre and have the fuel tank and fuel lines completely
emptied.
It is important to use the proper fuel grade for the range of temperature : No. 1 : fuel for winter opera-
tion, No. 2 : fuel for summer operation.
■ Before fuelling up:
■ Switch off engine
■ Secure the vehicle / equipment to prevent it from rolling
■ Switch off the auxiliary heating
■ Ensure the fuel is of sufficient quality. Cleanliness is a must as well as avoiding water or snow
in the fuel supply.
