LOW SULFUR DIESEL FUEL CONDITIONER
When possible, use existing fuel formulations for engines
used off-highway. This fuel will not require any additives
to provide good performance and engine reliability.
However, many local fuel distributors will not carry both
low and regular sulfur diesel fuels.
If the local fuel distributor will supply only low sulfur fuel,
order and use John Deere TY22030 Diesel Fuel
Conditioner. It provides lubricating properties along with
other useful benefits, such as cetane improver, anti-
oxidant, fuel stabilizer, corrosion inhibitor and others.
TY22030 is specifically for use with low sulfur fuels.
Nearly all other diesel fuel conditioners only improve cold
weather flow and stabilize long-term fuel storage. They do
not contain the lubrication additives needed by rotary fuel
injection pumps.

HANDLING AND STORING DIESEL FUEL
Ö
CAUTION: Handle fuel carefully. Do not fill
the fuel tank when engine is running.
DO NOT smoke while you fill the fuel tank or
service the fuel system.
Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day’s operation to
prevent condensation and freezing during cold
weather.
Ö
CAUTION: The fuel tank is vented through
the filler cap. If a new filler cap is required,
always replace it with an original vented
cap.
When fuel is stored for an extended period of time or if
there is a slow turnover of fuel, add a fuel conditioner
to stabilize the fuel and prevent water condensation.
Contact your fuel supplier for recommendations.
