20. USE FUEL, COOLANT AND LUBRICANTS ACCORDING TO AMBIENT TEMPERATURE REMARK e Werecommend Komatsu genuine oil which has been specifically formulated and approved for use in engine and hydraulic work equipment applications. e Only use high quality oils which meet internationally recognised specifications. e When starting the engine in an atmospheric temperature of lower than 0°C, be sure to use engine oil of SAE10W, SAE10W-30 and SAE15W-40, even though an atmospheric temperature goes up to 10°C more or less in the day time. e Use API classification CE or CF-4 as engine oil. If API classification CD is used reduce the engine oil change interval to half.
e There is no problem if single grade oil is mixed with multigrade oil (SAE1OW-30, 15W-40), but be sure to add single grade oil that matches the temperature in the table. e When fuel sulphur content is less than 0.5%, change oil in the oil pan every periodic maintenance hours described in this manual. Change oil according to the following table if fuel sulphur content is above 0.5%. Fuel sulphur content | Change interval of oil in engine oil pan 0.5 to 1.0% 1/2 of regular interval 1.0% to 1.5% 1/4 of regular interval Specified capacity: Total amount of oil including oil for components and oil in piping. Refill capacity:
Amount of oil needed to refill system during normal inspection and maintenance.
