
Fuel
Use clean vehicle diesel (class A), preferably in accordance with the 98/70/EEC Directive
modified by directive 2003/17 or EN 590 standard equivalent. In Spain this corresponds
to RD 1728/1999.
For the USA market, it should comply with Grades 1D and 2D of ASTM D975 and for
supplies which do not comply with these requirements, in no event should the sulphur
content be higher than 0.5% in mass.
Initially, the use of REM type biodiesel or similar is not recommended. Where this is
used, it should be in proportions of under 5 % of the fuel mixture.

Engine oil (fig. 1)
Use 4-stroke engine oil which complies with MIL-L-2104C / API CD requirements or
higher.
Always check the API quality on the label on the oil drum /container to ensure the quality
is as required.
The machinery leaves the factory filled with oil of a viscosity of SAE 20W40. However,
the following table should be used to select the most appropriate viscosity according to
the climate.
If different brands of oil are used, the sump should be completely drained first before
adding the new oil.


Coolant
Always use ethylene-glycol antifreeze as this contains rust inhibitors for internal
combustion aluminium engines. The cooling system should be filled with distilled water
and anti-freeze in the following proportions:
70% water + 30% anti-freeze for a standard machine, for temperatures from -17 ºC to
127 ºC (1,4 ºF up to 261 ºF)
50% water + 50% anti-freeze for temperatures from 35ºC to 145ºC (-31 ºF up to 293 ºF)

Hydraulic circuit
VG32 for environmental temperatures usually below 10ºC ( 50 ºF)
VG46 for environmental temperatures between 10 ºC and 40 ºC (50 ºF and 104 ºF)
VG68 for environmental temperatures usually above 40ºC (104 ºF)

Oil for TRANSFER BOX “COMPEN SYSTEM”
Oil for COMPEN AUSA ref. 461.00099.09 characterized by:
- Additives modifying the friction factor.
- A “high-pressure” and anti-wear capacity.
- Good anti-rust and anti-corrosion characteristics.
- Excellent thermal stability.
- Avoids vibrations and noise in the system.

Battery electrolyte
This dumper is fitted with a battery which requires maintenance. Top up with distilled
water as required.
