Servicing the Fuel System

Note: Refer to Fill the Fuel Tank, page 13, for fuel
recommendations.
WARNING
Under certain conditions, diesel fuel and fuel vapors
are highly flammable and explosive. A fire or
explosion from fuel can burn you and others and can
cause property damage.
• Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors, in
an open area, when the engine is off and is cold.
Wipe up any fuel that spills.
• Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add
fuel to the fuel tank until the level is 25 mm
below the bottom of the filler neck. This empty
space in the tank allows the fuel to expand.
• Never smoke when handling fuel, and stay
away from an open flame or where fuel fumes
may be ignited by a spark.
• Store fuel in a clean, safety-approved container
and keep the cap in place.
Fuel Tank
Drain and clean the fuel tank after every 800 hours
operation or yearly, whichever comes first. Also, drain
and clean the tank if the fuel system becomes
contaminated or if the machine will be stored for an
extended period. Use clean diesel fuel to flush out the
tank.
Fuel Lines and Connections
Check the fuel lines and connections every 400 hours
or yearly, whichever comes first. Inspect for
deterioration, damage or loose connections.
Water Separator
Drain water or other contaminants from the water
separator (Fig. 27) daily.
1. Place a clean container under the water separator
(the water separator is mounted to the inside of
the frame, next to the left side of the engine).
2. Loosen the drain plug on the bottom of the filter
canister. Tighten the plug after draining.
