Fuel and Fuel Filtration
Check the prefilter for contamination on a daily basis as part of the pre-operation inspection. If there is contamination in the sediment bowl, open the valve on the bottom and drain the contents into a catch can. Make sure the engine is off before draining the contents.
See the fuel system requirements for Komatsu’s Tier 4 Interim and Tier 4 Final machines, including the required fuel types, managing and maintaining the fuel filtration system, and general best practices to maintain equipment performance.
