NOTE
Fill fuel tank daily
, preferably at the end of
the day's operation to help prevent
condensation in the tank. Tank Capacity
is 97 U.S. Gallons (378 liters).
IMPORTANT
Do not fill tank completely; space is
required for expansion. A filled tank could
overflow if exposed to a rise in
temperature, such as direct sunlight.
IMPORTANT
Do not allow tank to empty. Running out of
fuel can cause air locks and/or
contamination of the fuel system. Refer to
Section 7.8.5 Fuel System for priming
procedures.
6.3.5.5 Engine Temperature
The normal engine operating temperature range
is 180°-225°F (82°-107°C), and is indicated on
the CDM display. If the temperature exceeds
230°F (110°C), an ongoing intermittent tone will
be heard and the CDM will flash “ENGINE
TEMP”. Stop the engine immediately and
determine cause. The tone will stop and the
CDM will return to normal when the temperature
drops below 225°F (107°C).
