Emissions

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US
EPA) (and California Air Resources Board (CARB), for
engines/equipment certified to California standards)
requires this engine/equipment to comply with exhaust
and evaporative emissions standards. Locate the
emissions compliance decal on the engine to determine
applicable standards. See the included emissions
warranty for emissions warranty information. Follow the
maintenance specifications in this manual to ensure the
engine complies with applicable emissions standards for
the duration of the product's life.

Engine Oil Recommendations

Change oil and oil filter at least once every 12 months,
even if the hours of operation are fewer than the other-
wise recommended service interval. See the applicable
engine manual for recommended oil types. Use only
approved oil types.
For more information, see the engine manual.

Coolant Recommendation

DANGER
Risk of poisoning. Do not use mouth to siphon
coolant. Doing so will result in death or serious
injury.
CAUTION
Engine damage. Use approved coolant only.
Failure to do so could result in equipment damage.
Use demineralized or distilled water for best results. Hard
water causes scale deposits, which reduces cooling effi-
ciency and raises internal temperatures, possibly leading
to engine damage.
See the engine manual for recommended coolants.
Use a Long Life Coolant Antifreeze or Extended Life
Coolant that meets or exceeds these specifications:
Isuzu Part Number 8-12346-290-0
ASTM D4985
See the engine manual for recommended coolants.
Test coolant yearly, or every 1,000 hours, whichever
comes first.
For more information, see the engine manual.

Fuel System

Explosion and Fire. Fuel and vapors are
extremely flammable and explosive. Keep fire
and spark away. Failure to do so will result
in death or serious injury.
Explosion and Fire. Do not overfill fuel tank.
Overfilling may cause fuel to leak and ignite
or explode, resulting in death or serious injury.
The heater is designed to operate with diesel fuel.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Comply with all laws regulating
the storage, handling, and transporting of fuels.
Follow these guidelines:
Use only ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel.
When temperatures are at or below freezing, use
No. 1D diesel fuel.
When temperatures are above freezing, use No.
2D diesel fuel.
In some areas of the country, climatized fuel—a
mixture of 1D and 2D—may also be used.
For more information, see the engine manual.

nuts after first 50 miles to factory specifications.
Failure to do so could result in death, serious injury,
property or equipment damage.
Property or equipment damage. Do not alter the trailer.
Alterations can damage essential safety items. Doing
so could result in death, serious injury, or property or
