CAUTIONThe inlet plug (1) carries the indication “DIESEL” to avoid accidental input of different fuels. To avoid damage to the system and tanks, we recommend refuelling by gravity and not by pressure.
The fuel intake of the yacht is equipped with a flow switch having the function to prevent undesired leaks of fuel from the plug and from the vent which may stain the bridge and pollute the water. The leak of fuel may occur during refuelling, if the tank is almost completely full.
The fuel coming out of the intake duct is collected in a tank with suitable capacity, which, on its turn, will drain automatically into the on-board fuel tank, through the return duct.
Also the flow switch is equipped with own air vent, bleeding from the wall near the filler plug of the tank.

CAUTIONBefore refuelling, wash the teak with fresh water to avoid its contamination with fuel.
DANGERDuring refuelling operations, do not approach open flames to the yacht; do not smoke. Carry out refuelling with engine shut off. The lack of consideration of these precautions can cause accidents and injuries.
