INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of our Digitally Controlled Propane Injection System for Diesel Engines the DIESEL MAG- NUM. We believe this product to be the safest and most dependable system of it s kind on the market today. It is highly recommended that the installing technician read the installation literature included within (in it s entirety) prior to the actual commencement of the installation. Propane when injected into a Diesel Engine enhances combustion by evening out the normally violent explosion that commonly occurs in the Diesel Combustion chamber. This evening and slowing effect provides a more complete burn, a cleaner burn and a less violent burn resulting in more power, more torque, fewer emissions, less engine wear and the system pays for it self with increases in fuel mileage! Each Diesel Magnum is pre-assembled and vehicle specific preprogrammed by the manufacturer. Only the manufacture and authorized dealers have the capability to re-program a Diesel Magnum. Any tampering of the product will void the warranty and release the manufacture from any and all liability. The Propane tank and LPG fuel line to deliver fuel from the motor fuel tank must be purchased separately and must meet Federal DOT and NFPA 58 requirements as well as State and local requirements that apply. Information is available at your local Propane Professional which can be located by visiting FIG 17 This product is to be installed by trained and certified technicians only following safe work and installation habits in accordance with NFPA pamphlet 58. No warranty or liability will be assumed by Dynamic Fuel Systems Inc. on systems installed by anyone other than trained and certified technicians. This product was designed with the very best materials and products available with fail safes engineered into the product to provide the end user with years of trouble free operation.
