Maintenance
5.3 Fuel system
All work involving fuel carries an increased
Danger of fire and poisoning.
☞ Never perform work on the fuel system in the vicinity of open flames or
sparks.
☞ Do not refuel in closed rooms.
☞ No smoking, no fire.
☞ Do not smoke when working on the fuel system or when refuelling.
☞ Wipe away fuel spills immediately.
☞ Use a suitable container to collect the fuel as it drains and dispose of it in an
environmentally friendly manner.
☞ Keep the machine clean to reduce the risk of fire.
Bear in mind the following important points when refuelling:
☞ Avoid refuelling with cans in order to avoid dirt in the fuel.
☞ When refuelling the machine without a fuel-filling pump, use safety-oriented
ladders and work platforms.
☞ Never use machine parts or attachments/superstructures as a climbing aid.
Do not run the fuel tank completely dry. Otherwise, air is drawn into the fuel sys-
tem. This requires bleeding the fuel system – see Bleeding the fuel system on
page 5-5.
Fill up the tank with the correct fuel type at the end of each working day. This pre-
vents condensation water from forming in the fuel tank over night. Do not fill the
tank completely but leave some space for the fuel to expand.
