B Percentage of kerosene to be added I Summer diesel fuel II Winter diesel fuel A Outside temperature Legend: Waxing may occur at low temperatures, clogging the fuel system and reducing engine efficiency. If the ambient temperature is less than 0 °C, winter-grade fuel (suitable down to -20 °C) should be used. This fuel is usually available from filling stations well in advance of the cold months. At temperatures below -20°C/, kerosene should be added to the diesel fuel.

The relevant percentages are given in the dia- gram at the right Special diesel fuels can be used for climatic zones down to - 44 °C. If summer-grade diesel fuel must be used at temperatures below 0°C, up to 60% kerosene can be added (see diagram). In most cases, adequate resistance to cold can be obtained by adding a flow improver (additive). Please contact your Deutz partner. Diesel fuels must never be mixed with petrol (normal and super grade petrol)! 4.2.2 Winter-Grade Fuel Use commercially available diesel fuel with less than 0.5% sulphur content. If the sulfur content is higher than 0.5%, oil change intervals should be reduced (see 6.1.1).

The following fuel specifications/standards are approved: (refer to TR 0199-3002) Diesel fuel - DIN EN 590 - BS 2869: A1 and A2 (with A2, take note of the sulfur content!) - ASTM D 975-88; 1-D and 2-D - NATO Code F-54and F-75 - ISO 8217 DMX - ISO 8217 DMA Jet fuel - F34/F35/F44 (kerosene) - F54 (equivalent to diesel fuel according to DIN EN 590) - XF 63 (equivalent to F34+F35 with addi- tives) Exhaust emission values which may be determined in the cause of type approval tests always refer to the reference fuel prescribed by the authorities for the type approval test.
