FUEL ADDITIVES
Fuel additives with biocide/algaecide functions only are allowed in case of
storage of fuel in the tank for long periods (one year or more).
These additives must be diluted in the fuel following the product prescribed
percentages when filling the tank.
Additives with functions other than biocide / algaecide are not al-lowed..

Remarks
*1: the regions known as poor lubricity diesel fuel
quality or if the engine is operated with Jet fuels, the
primary filter must be with lubricity dosing capability.
Contact Kohler for information about the approved filter
for this purpose.
Operations with Jet Fuels
The jet fuels can be used but only adopting an additional
fuel filter with lubricity doser.
Because of lower density and greater leak fuel volume due
to lower viscosity, depending on the engine speed and
torque, a power loss up to 10% is possible.
There are some problematical fuel proprieties amongst the
listed jet fuels (viscosity, lubricating capacities and low
boiling point). A slight increase in wear in the injection
system is to be expected which can lead to a statistically
shorter life of these components. Sulphur content must be
below 2000ppm.
