Refuelling should be performed in the harbour, in order to allow fuel to cool down, without to condensation. Drain the tanks by each refuelling. Before refuelling, wash the teak with fresh water to avoid its contamination with fuel.

During the refuelling operation ensure that vents are free and open inlet plug on the bulkhead opposite to the one in use, to avoid fuel spills. We also advise to wash the area around the plug with fresh water.

Do not disperse fuel in the environment but dispose of it in the dedicated areas.

Dispose of fuel-contaminated polluting waste according to the rules in force.

Fuel leak can cause a fire to break. Check periodically the integrity of your system.

The inlet plug carries the indication “DIESEL” to avoid accidental input of different liquids.

Filling lines pressure must be kept under 0.3 bar during bunkering operation.

Explosion/fire hazard

• Stow flammable material in a safety-approved container. Never stow flammable material in non-vented areas.
• Check bilge and engine room for fumes.
• Keep the ventilation system free of obstructions. Never modify the ventilation system.
• Inspect the fuel system for leaks.

Explosion/fire/pollution hazard
Fuel system connections that are too loose or too tight can leak, resulting in fuel loss, environmental pollution and explosion/fire danger.

Make sure that the exhaust system of the engine is working properly. Carbon monoxide is extremely toxic.

• The drain system eliminates the engine combustion gases and maintains proper ventilation at the stern.
• Frequently Inspect the complete system for leaks. Losses can lead to carbon monoxide exposure.
