If the engines are primed when they are shut down,meaning there is no air in the injection pump or lines to the injectors,you should be OK just filling the filters up.The fuel flowing from the filters to the injection pump should pull fuel from the tanks.Make sure the tank vents are clear and not clogged or partially clogged.I remove the fuel cap on first start up but I am just paranoid about vent lines.
