Leveled fuel levels in a fuel tank (60) disposed at an undercarriage (16) of a construction machine (10) may ensure that the total fuel volume of the fuel tank (60) may be accessible. The fuel tank (60) may comprise a first fuel compartment (62) and a second fuel compartment (64) fluidly connected to the first fuel compartment (62) and disposed at higher altitudes than the first fuel compartment (62). Furthermore, the fuel tank (60) may comprise at least one step integrally formed with the first fuel compartment (62) or second fuel compartment (64) for facilitating entrance to an operator station (22) of the construction machine (10).
