1. T
urn the key switch to “ON”, check the amount of
fuel by fuel gauge.
2. Fill fuel tank when fuel gauge shows 1/4 or less fuel
in tank.
3. Use grade No.2-Diesel fuel at temperatures above
-10 ℃ (14 ℉). Use grade No.1-Diesel fuel at
temperatures below -10 ℃ (14 ℉).
4. After refueling, close the fuel tank cap tight enough.
(1) Fuel tank cap
Fuel tank capacity
ROPS 27 L (7.1 U.S.gals.)
CAB 32 L (8.4 U.S.gals.)
IMPORTANT :
• Do
not permit dirt or trash to get into the fuel
system.
• Be careful not to let the fuel tank become
empty. Otherwise, air will enter the fuel system,
necessitating bleeding before the next engine
start.
• Be careful not to spill during refueling. If a spill
occurs wipe it off at once or it may cause a fire.
• To prevent condensation (water) accumulation
in the fuel tank, fill the tank before parking
overnight.
• Check to see if the fuel tank cap is tight enough.
• Before refueling, make sure there is no flames
around and remove static electricity.
3. Checking water separator
[LX3310]
1. When
the water has collected up to the upper limit
in the water separator, the water separator indicator
on the instrument panel lights up and a warning
buzzer sounds.
(1) Water separator indicator
2. In
this case, close the fuel shutoff-valve and loosen
the air plug and drain plug by several turns.
3. Allow the water to drain. When no more water
comes out and fuel starts to flow out, retighten the
air plug and drain plug.
4. Bleed the fuel system.
(See Bleeding fuel system on page 136.)
(1) Red float
(2) Fuel shutoff-valve
(3) Air plug
(4) Cup
(5) Drain plug
(A) “OPEN”
(B)
“CLOSE”
(C) “FUEL”
(D) “UPPER LIMIT”
(E) “WATER”
IMPORTANT :
• If
water is drawn through to the fuel pump,
extensive damage will occur.
NOTE :
• When the red float reaches near the upper
limit level, start from step 2 in the above
procedure to drain water from the water
separator.
4. Checking engine oil level
