Figure 30. Double Fuel Tank System
Fuel Check
REFILLING THE FUEL SYSTEM
The DCA600SSV series generators may (if equipped with a
trailer or skid) have a
double fuel tank system (Figure 30),
which consists of an
internal generator fuel tank, and a
trailer mounted fuel tank. It is also possible the generator
can be equipped with a
skid mounted fuel tank (Figure 32).
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.
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.
DANGER - EXPLOSION/FIRE HAZARDS
ONLY properly trained personel who have read and
understand this section should refill the fuel tank system.
CAUTION - REFUELING THE GENERATOR
