Fuel Tank Filling
Fuel Requirements
Fueling
Fuel Storage
Store fuel in cans. Do not store it in galvanized cans as the
galvanization treatment would react with the fuel and form
compounds that would spoil the injection pump and
injectors.
Take all the necessary precautions to ensure that stored
fuel does not become polluted with dirt, water or other
substances.
Plan your fuel purchases so that
summer fuels are not kept for too long
and used in the winter.
To
make
sludge
and
water
condensation easier to remove; there
should be a discharge plug (c), in the
lowest point, on the opposite side to
the drain tube.
If the fuel is not filtered from the
storage can, use a funnel with the fine
gauge mesh over the fuel tank neck
when fueling.
Store fuel cans away from direct
sunlight and slightly tilted, so that any
sediment inside is eliminated through
the outlet tube.
Setting up a tank for fuel storage and decanting.
Fuel Tank Cap
1.
Do not smoke while filling the fuel tank because diesel is
flammable liquid and can catch fire easily.
2. Mixtures of diesel fuel and alcohol are not approved since
the resulting lubrication of the fuel injection system is
insufficient.
4. Fill the tank at the end of the day to prevent the formation
of overnight condensation.
3. Clean the area around the filler neck where the fuel is
poured.
7. Dry up any fuel spill immediately.
6. The tank must not be completely filled. Allow space for an
increase in volume. If the original fuel cap is lost, it must be
replaced with an original spare which must be fully
tightened.
5. Never remove the plug or fuel the tractor while the engine
is running. Keep control of the pump nozzle whilst the tank
is being filled.
It is important to use good quality fuel for the long life &
good performance of the engine. The fuels must be clean,
well refined and non-corrosive for the fuel system
components. Make sure that you use fuel of a known
quality and reliable origin.
Before you fuel the tractor, clean the zone around the filler
neck to prevent foreign bodies from entering the tank. After
fuelling, tighten the plug properly.
Comply with the following instructions when
working with the diesel fuel:
