local JCB dealer.
(2) Do not use ordinary engine oil.

Fuel

WARNING Where low sulphur fuels are used it is important that lubricity additives are used.
CAUTION A combination of water and sulphur will have a corrosive chemical effect on fuel injection
equipment. It is essential that water is eradicated from the fuel system when high sulphur fuels are used.
NOTICE Consult your fuel supplier or JCB dealer about the suitability of any fuel you are unsure of.
The quality and grade of fuel can seriously affect the service life of the fuel system. It is vitally important that the
correct grade of fuel is used, a high standard of fuel storage is maintained and the use of old fuel is avoided.
