Oil quality
The following lubrication oil specifications are
permitted:
n
Low-ash engine oils acc. to API-classifica-
tion CJ-4.
Avoid mixing of engine oils.
8.3.1.2
Oil viscosity
Since engine oil changes its viscosity with the
temperature, the ambient temperature at the
operating location of the engine is of utmost
importance when choosing the viscosity class
(SAE-class).
The temperature data of the SAE-class always
refer to fresh oils. In travel operation engine oil
ages because of soot and fuel residues. This
adversely affects the properties of the engine
oil, especially under low ambient temperatures.
Optimal operating conditions can be achieved
by using the following oil viscosity chart as a
reference:
Ambient temperature Oil viscosity
higher than 25 °C
(77 °F)
SAE 30
SAE 10W-30
SAE 15W-40
-10 °C to 25 °C (14 °F
to 77 °F)
SAE 10W-30
SAE 15W-40
below - 10 °C (14 °F)
SAE 10W-30
