2.4 Oil
• The engine may be damaged if operated with improper oil
level.
• Do not exceed the MAX level because a sudden increase in
engine rpm could be caused by its combustion.
• Use only the recommended oil to ensure adequate
protection, efficiency and service life of the engine.
• The use of lubricants other than recommended may shorten
the engine life.
• Viscosity must be appropriate to the ambient temperature
to which the engine is to be exposed (Par. 2.4.1).
2.4.1
SAE oil classification
• In the SAE classification, oils are identified according
to viscosity without considering any other qualitative
characteristic.

WITH
SPECIFICATIONS
• Low S.A.P.S. oils, sulfate ashes <1% may not be used with fuels with a sulfur content >50ppm.
• Filtration of oils is critical to proper operation and lubrication; always change filters regularly as specified in this manual.
2.4.2
Reversing gear oil
NOTE:
Refer to the technical documentation of the reversing gear supplied with the engine.
2.5 Fuel
• 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.

Danger
• Prolonged skin contact with the exhausted engine oil can
cause cancer of the skin.
• If contact with oil cannot be avoided, thoroughly wash your
hands with soap and water as soon as possible.
• For the exhausted oil disposal, refer to
and
SCRAPPING.
• The code is made up of two numbers. The first number
refers to the viscosity when cold, for use during winter
("W"= winter), while the second number is for viscosity at
high temperatures.
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.
