(*1) NOTA : Do NOT use fuel with sulphur content above 15ppm.
(*2) - On all engines compliant with Stage-V emission regulation (engines with DPF device), the oil to
use must comply with the specification API CJ-4 Low S.A.P.S or ACEA E6 Low S.A.P.S.
(*3) - NOTE : Do NOT use fuel with sulphur content above 500ppm.
(*3) - NOTE : Low S.A.P.S. oils, sulfate ashes <1% may not be used with fuels with a sulfur content
>50ppm.

2.5 Fuel

Important
Use of other types of fuel
could damage the engine. Do not use
dirty diesel fuel or mixtures of diesel
fuel and water since this will cause
serious engine faults.
Any failures resulting from the use of
fuels other than recommended will not
be warranted.
2.3
EN 590 (biodiesel content max. 7% (V/V))
ASTM D 975 Grade 1-D S15
ASTM D 975 Grade 2-D S15
NATO F-54, equivalent to diesel fuel in accordance with EN 590
EN 590 or ASTM D 975 Grade 1, 2 -D S15 Arctic Diesel
NOTE: In a warranty case the customer must prove by a certificate from the fuel supplier that an
allowed fuel was used.
KDI Electronic Injection Tier 4 final – Stage IIIB – Stage IV- Stage V certified Engine
Those engines are designed for fuels in accordance with EN 590 and ASTM D975 for a cetane number of
at least 45. Since those engines are equipped with exhaust gas after-treatment such as Diesel Oxidation
Catalyst (DOC), Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), they may only be
operated with sulfur-free diesel fuels (EN 590, DIN 5168, ASTM D975 Grade 2-D S15, ASTM D975 Grade
1-D S15). Otherwise, compliance with the emission requirements and durability are not guaranteed.
Insufficient lubricating capacity can lead to serious wear problems above all in common rail injection
systems. Too low a lubricating capacity is particularly a problem in fuels with a low sulfur content (and in
this respect sulfur contents ‹500 mg/kg can already be considered low). An adequate lubricating capacity

Warning
Clean fuel prevents the fuel injectors
from clogging. Immediately clean up any
spillage during refuelling.
Never store diesel fuel in galvanized containers
(i.e. coated with zinc). Diesel fuel and the
galvanized coating react chemically to each
other, producing flaking that quickly clogs filters
or causes fuel pump and/or injector failure.
