FAQs
What is the 400L diesel tank best suited to?
The 400 litre diesel tank is a practical middle ground, big enough to get through a solid day’s work, without taking up too much room. It’s great for topping up tractors, skid steers, utes and mid-sized gear on farms, job sites or out in the bush. It’s also a solid option for tradies or service crews working across different locations.
Can I mount the 400L diesel tank to a ute tray or trailer?
Yes. The tank has a flat base and compact design that makes it easy to position on a tray or trailer. Just make sure it’s strapped down properly when you’re on the road. If you’re unsure whether your vehicle or trailer is suitable for this capacity, just give our team a call; we’re ready to help you work out the best and safest setup.
Can the DieselCadet™ tank be used for long-term storage?
Yes, the DieselCadet™ tank is suitable for long-term diesel storage. To maintain fuel quality, ensure the tank is kept sealed, periodically check for signs of wear or degradation, and store it in a clean, sheltered location away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
What type of diesel can be stored in the DieselCadet™ tank?
The DieselCadet™ tank is purpose-built for storing diesel fuel. It should not be used for petrol or other flammable liquids, as it is not certified for those substances. Using it for non-compatible fuels may compromise safety and cause contamination or damage to the tank and pump components.
How can I ensure that my DieselCadet™ tank remains compliant with safety regulations?
Inspect the tank regularly for signs of damage or leaks, and ensure it is installed and operated in accordance with local regulations. Maintain clear labelling and follow all relevant Australian Standards for the safe storage and handling of diesel fuel.
What accessories are recommended for optimal use of the DieselCadet™ tank?
Recommended accessories include a diesel transfer pump for efficient refuelling, spill containment trays to minimise environmental risk, and proper hazard signage. Keeping a suitable fire extinguisher nearby is also advised as part of safe fuel handling practices.
How should I clean and maintain my DieselCadet™ tank?
Regularly inspect the tank for debris, water, or sediment build-up. If cleaning is required, use mild detergent and clean water, then rinse thoroughly and allow the tank to dry completely before refilling. Avoid abrasive materials that may scratch or damage the tank surface.
