Operating Media 4.1 Lube Oil 30 298 1 Generally, multi-grade oils shall be used. In closed heated rooms at temperatures >5°C, also single-grade oils can be used. As the viscosity of lube oil is dependent on temperature, the choice of SAE grade should be governed by the ambient temperature prevailing at the operating site. Optimum operating behaviour will attained if you take the accompanying oil viscosity diagram as a guide. Should the temperature fall temporarily below the limits of the SAE grade selected, cold starting may be affected but the engine will not be damaged. In order to keep wear to a minimum, do not exceed application limits for extended periods of time.
Synthetic lube oils feature an improved temperature and oxidation stability. 4.1.1 Quality Grade 4.1.2 Viscosity Lube oils are differentiated by Deutz according to their performance and quality class. Oils of other, comparable specifications can be used.
