Lubrication system Lubrication system Oil grade Scania LDF stands for the Scania Long Drain Field test standard. Scania LDF oils have been carefully selected after extensive testing. The ap- proval is only granted to the highest grade engine oils available on the market.

The illustration describes which ambient temperature in °C the viscosity class can handle for Scania-approved and market approved oil grades. Note that the Scania-approved oil grades have a greater temperature range than market approved oil grades.

EN950/EN15940/MK1 standard For operation at extremely low outdoor tempera- tures: Consult your nearest Scania workshop on how to avoid starting difficulties. If the engine is used in areas of the world where engine oil with ACEA or API classification is not available, the oil grade must be measured in actual operation.
Page 44
However, there are only labels for oils with Scania LDF approval and oil grade ACEA E7. Stick on a new label if the oil type or oil grade is changed in favour of any of the oil types above.
Lubrication system Oil analysis To be able to extend the oil change intervals us- ing an oil analysis, Scania LDF-3 and LDF-2 oils must be used. Certain laboratories offer engine oil analysis. The following conditions must remain fulfilled when the oil is changed: •...
The coolant should be changed when the cooling functioning antifreeze and corrosion protection system is cleaned: every 6,000 hours or at least may be used in Scania engines. Products not ful- every 5 years. See Changing the coolant and filling the demands in this section may lead to cleaning the cooling system.

There is no risk of damage by freezing if the content of Scania antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor, or an equivalent mixture of a similar product, is at least 35% by volume.

In order to retain the corrosion protection and the Scania Ready Mix 50/50 higher boiling point, it is essential to use coolant Scania Ready Mix 50/50 is a ready-mixed cool- consisting of water mixed with antifreeze and ant containing 50% antifreeze (ethylene glycol) corrosion inhibitor (ethylene glycol).

Cooling system Antifreeze and corrosion protection concentration table, litres 35% by volume of Scania antifreeze provides sufficient corrosion protection. Example: • The total volume of the cooling system is 40 litres. • The measured concentration of ethylene gly- col is 35% by volume (freezing point -21°C).
Filling coolant. Only pour pre-mixed coolant into the cooling system. The following instructions apply to Scania ex- pansion tanks. For other types of expansion tanks, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Open the expansion tank cover and check the coolant level.
Be extra careful and always use clean, lint-free and dust-free clothes and disposable gloves when working on the fuel system. Scania recom- mends using Tegera 848 gloves. Clean tools before they are used and do not use any worn or chrome-plated tools. Material and flakes of chrome may come off.
Description Illustration Suction tool Note: Scania recommends bleeding the fuel system us- ing suction tools rather than with a hand pump. This is a quicker and simpler method, which en- sures a complete bleeding. Open the bleed nipple on the high pressure pump and connect the suction tool.
