Refueling Procedure:
WARNING
Diesel fuel and its vapors are dangerous to your health and the surrounding environment. Avoid skin contact and/or inhaling fumes.
1.Level Tanks — Make sure fuel cells are level with the ground. Failure to do so will cause fuel to spill from the tank before reaching full capacity (Figure 30).
CAUTION
ALWAYS place trailer on firm level ground before refueling to prevent spilling and maximize the amount of fuel that can be pumped into the tank.
Figure 30. Only Fill on Level Ground
NOTICE
ONLY use #2 diesel fuel when refueling.
2.Open cabinet doors on the “right side” of the generator (from generator control panel position). Remove fuel cap and fill tank (Figure 31).

3.NEVER overfill fuel tank — It is important to read the fuel gauge when filling trailer fuel tank. DO NOT wait for fuel to rise in filler neck (Figure 32).
