Fuel Check

DANGER:

Fuel spillage on a hot! engine can cause a fire or explosion. If fuel spillage occurs, wipe up the spilled fuel completely to prevent fire hazards. NEVER! smoke around or near the generator.

Refilling the Fuel System

The DCA150SSVU genset may (if equipped with a trailer or skid) have a double fuel tank system (Figure 34), which consists of an internal generator fuel tank, and a trailer mounted fuel tank. It is also possible the genset can be equipped with a skid mounted fuel tank (Figure 35). The skid type fuel system does not use the internal generator fuel tank.

Use the instructions in this section that applies to your type of fuel tank system.

ALWAYS fill the fuel tank with clean and fresh #2 diesel fuel. DO NOT fill the fuel tanks beyond their capacities.

Pay attention to the fuel tank capacity when replenishing fuel.The fuel tank cap must be closed tightly after filling. Handle fuel in a safety container. If the container does not have a spout, use a funnel. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
