9 Operating media Lubricating oil Engine Lubricating Oil Gearbox Lubricating Oil Only use a recognised brand of oil for lubricating the engine. Only use a recognised brand of oil for lubricating the gearbox. Lube oils are differentiated according to their performance and quality class. In common use are specifications named after API (American Petroleum Institute) and ACEA (European Automobile Manufacturers Association).
9 Operating media Fuel Fuel Quality Grade Winter-grade fuel Use commercially available diesel fuel with less than 0.5% sulfer content. If the sulfur content is higher than 0.5%, the intervals between oil changes should be halved e.g. change oil every 250 hours. Don’t use fuel with more than 1% sulfur! Waxing may occur at low temperatures, clogging the fuel system and reducing engine efficiency.
9 Operating media Coolant Coolant fluid Water quality for coolant preparation The preparation and monitoring of coolant in inter-cooled engines is especially important because corrosion, cavitation and freezing can lead to engine damage. Use as coolant a mixture of a cooling system protective liquid (anti-freeze, ethylene glycol based) and tap water. Use preferably tap water.
