General
CAUTION
Spilt fuel may cause skidding and therefore accidents. Clean any spilt fuel immediately.
Do not use fuel to clean the machine.
When filling with fuel, choose a well aired and ventilated area.
Notice:
Consult your fuel supplier or JCB dealer about the suitability of any fuel you are unsure of.
Low Fuel Levels
If you operate the machine on very low fuel levels, then air can enter the fuel system. To prevent the entry of
air, always add more fuel when the fuel gauge shows a low level of fuel.
If air enters the fuel system, the engine speed will vary dramatically and low power will be experienced. The
symptoms may be made worse when the machine operates on steep slopes.
If you increase the engine speed or load when there is air in the fuel system, then damage to the engine can
occur.
If the fuel supply contains air, you must stop the engine, fill the fuel tank then bleed the fuel system to remove
the air.
You must bleed the fuel system after changing the fuel filter(s).
Filling the Tank
WARNING
Do not use petrol in this machine. Do not mix petrol with the diesel fuel. In storage tanks the
petrol will rise to the top and form flammable vapours.
At the end of every working day, fill the tank with the correct type of fuel. This will prevent overnight condensation
from developing in the fuel.
Do not fill the tank completely, leave some space to allow the fuel to expand.
1. Unlock and remove the fuel cap.
2. Carefully fill with fuel.
3. Install and lock the fuel cap, make sure that the vent is clear.
