Maintenance
Note
When diesel fuel with
a high sulphur content
(between 0.50 % and
1.0 %) is used, the
engine oil and engine
oil filter must be re-
placed at shorter in-
tervals (approx. half
as long).
Never use diesel fuel
with a sulphur con-
tent exceeding 1.0 %.
Only use distilled wa-
ter for mixing and ob-
serve the mixing ta-
ble of the respective
manufacturer.
Special grease for use
during the first
50 hours of service
When using biode-
gradable oil, there
must be no more than
2 % mineral oil in the
system.
