Maybe the chassis owner's manual will list that information? My motorhome is old enough that it doesn't have a low fuel light, just the usual gauge.
My car owner's manual states that the light comes on when there is "approximately 1.62 gallons left" in the tank, which always struck me as a rather oddly precise approximation. Perhaps it varies by a few tablespoons or something. I should perhaps note that the tank holds a total of about 10-11 gallons, and the car gets nearly 40 miles per gallon, so 1.62 gallons is a reasonable amount of warning before running out on that vehicle.
