Daily and routine maintenance procedures

Refueling
Check fuel level and fill the tank if necessary. It is
recommended to add fuel before the fuel tank gets
empty and keep the tank full to prevent condensation
of water into the fuel tank.
Add diesel fuel that complies with standards shown
on page 35. Use only clean fuel and take care when
refueling the loader to avoid dirt and water from
entering the fuel tank. Use of other type of fuel will
cause the engine to not be compliant with emissions
standards.
Use only clean fuel
Do not use dirty diesel fuel or mixtures of diesel fuel
and water since this will cause severe engine
damage. Clean fuel helps to prevent the fuel
injectors from clogging.
Immediately clean up any spilled fuel. Prevent
spilling of fuel by using appropriate equipment.
Never store fuel in galvanized containers (i.e. coated
with zinc). Diesel fuel and the galvanized coating
react chemically to each other, producing flaking that
quickly clogs filters, or causes fuel pump and/or
injector failure.
Risk of fire or explosion - Handle fuel with care
DANGER
Always stop the engine and allow it
to cool before refuelling.
Refuel only in a well ventilated area.
Use only diesel fuel that is described
on page 35.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Leave at
least 50 mm below the neck of the
fuel tank to avoid spilling of fuel.
Avoid spilling fuel when refuelling.
Should this happen, wipe the fuel
away immediately in order to avoid
risk of fire.
Keep fuel away from sources of
ignition. Do not smoke during
refuelling.
Use only clean fuel and take care
when refueling the loader to avoid dirt
and water from entering the fuel tank.
Clean fuel cap and surroundings
before opening the cap. Always store
fuel properly in an approved
container. Water in fuel can cause
severe damage to engine injection
system.
If you run out of fuel:
Add recommended type of diesel fuel from a clean
container. Switch the ignition key of the loader to
position ON, but do not start. Allow the electric pump
to circulate fuel for a couple of minutes before
starting.
If you are running low on fuel and operate the loader
on tilted ground, the loader may stall as fuel flow to
the engine may be temporarily interrupted. Add fuel
to prevent stall on uneven surfaces.
