8.3.2Condition

Check for any damage on the fan belt. Replace if necessary.

<Caution>

￿Refer to the User’s manual for Engine for adjusting and replacing of the fan belt.

8.4Checking Fuel

Caution

:Fire

￿Always wipe any drip of Diesel fuel or oil. Do not use this equipment when a leak is found. Repair the equipment before use.

Check for the fuel level in the tank. Add if necessary.

<Caution>

￿Use Diesel fuel, ASTM D975 No.2-D in the event ambient temperature reaches down to –5℃.

￿Always use the Diesel fuel strainer

￿Fill the fuel tank slightly less than the FULL tank,

￿Fuel requirements:

NOTICE: The fuel injection pump, injector or other parts of the fuel system and engine can be damaged if you use any fuel or fuel additive other than those specifically recommended by Isuzu.

Such damage is not our responsibility, and is not covered by the Warranty. To help avoid fuel system or engine damage, please heed the following:

￿Some service stations mix used engine oil with diesel fuel. Some manufacturers of large diesel engines allow this; however, for your diesel engine, do not use the diesel fuel which has been contaminated with engine oil. Besides causing engine damage, such fuel can also affect emission control. Before using any diesel fuel, check with the service station operator to see if the fuel has been mixed with engine oil.

￿Do not use any fuel additive. At the time this manual was printed, no other fuel additive was recommended. (See your authorized dealer to find out if this has changed.)

The engine is designed to use either Number 1-D or No. 2-D diesel fuel. However, for better fuel economy,

use No. 2-D diesel fuel whenever possible. At temperatures less than –7 C (20 F), No.2-D fuel may pose

operating problems (see “Cold Weather Operation” which follows). At colder temperatures, use No.1-D

fuel (if available) or use a “winterized” Number 2-D (a blend of No. 1-D and No. 2-D). This blended fuel is

usually called No. 2-D also, but can be used in colder temperatures than No.2-D fuel which has not been

“winterized”. Check with the service station operator to be sure you can get the properly blended fuel. Note

that diesel fuel may foam during a fill-up. This can cause the automatic pump nozzle to shut off even

though your tank is not full.
