Manual Extract:

Use No. 2 diesel fuel in the engine of this machine. The use of other fuels can cause the loss of engine power and high fuel consumption.
In very cold temperatures, a mixture of No. 1 and No. 2 diesel fuels is temporarily permitted. See the following Note.

NOTE: See your fuel dealer for winter fuel requirements in your area. If the temperature of the fuel lowers below the cloud point (wax appearance point), wax crystals in the fuel will cause the engine to lose power or not start.
The diesel fuel in this machine must meet the specifications in the chart below or Specification D975-81 of the American Society for Testing and Materials.

Fuel Storage
If you keep fuel in storage for a period of time, you can get foreign material or water in the fuel storage tank. Many engine problems are caused by water in the fuel.
Keep the fuel storage tank outside and keep the fuel as cool as possible. Remove water from the storage container at regular periods of time.
Fill the fuel tank at the end of the daily operating period to prevent condensation in the fuel tank.
