FUEL CIRCUIT
LOW TEMPERATURE DIESEL
Avoid using the engine with only a small reserve of fuel in the fuel tank; this encourages the formation of condensation and makes it more likely you will suck up dirt or air, resulting in engine stoppage. The common rail injection system does not require air to be bled from the fuel circuit.
D
FUEL LEVEL LOW A sending unit is installed and connected to the computer display on the instrument panel. This message will be displayed when the fuel level falls below 5% of full. Refer to FUEL TANK in MACHINE OPERATOR’S MANUAL for tank capacities.
CAUTION Never loosen the high pressure fuel circuit connectors in any way. RESTARTING AN ENGINE THAT HAS RUN OUT OF FUEL

Refuelling from drums or tanks may result in contamination of the diesel fuel, with the risk of damage to the injection system; if necessary, filter the fuel in a suitable manner or allow sedimentation of the impurities before refuelling.
