Requirements
The coolant used must meet the demands of
standard ASTM D 3306 or BS 6580:1992.
• The cooling mixture must consist 40 - 60 % of
ethylene/propylene-glycol based antifreeze and
water. The best proportion is 50 % of
antifreeze liquid and 50 % of water.
• The water used must be mechanically clean
and not too acid (e.g. swamp water) or too hard
(calciferous well water).
• Check periodically the proportion of antifreeze
(the frost resistance) in the coolant.
• Do not mix ethylene- and propylene-glycol
based antifreeze.
• Change the coolant every two years.
NOTE:
Never use only water as coolant but a
mixture of 40 - 60 % of water and antifreeze. See
the information for coolant quality requirements.

DANGER: Antifreeze is hazardous to health.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
1.6.11.4 Fuel quality requirements
Use of fuel, which does not fulfil the requirements that follow, can cause multiple malfunctions in the fuel
injection system and aftertreatment system. Malfunctions can cause serious issues in the other engine
components and shorten the engine lifetime. Also the engine will not meet the emission requirements, if
the used fuel is not permitted for the engine.
AGCO Power (and AGCO Corporation) is not responsible of any failures or issues caused by inappropriate
quality or storage of fuel.
CAUTION: Risk of serious failure in the fuel system!
Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) in the diesel fuel, even in small amounts, will cause serious
failure in the fuel system.
If there is a doubt that fuel has been contaminated with DEF, engine must not be started
before emptying and cleaning the fuel tank.
Fuel standards
Fuel must meet sulfur requirements, biodiesel requirements and standards that follow:
European standard
EN 590
2009 or newer
North American standard
ASTM D 975 or ASTM D7467
(B20)
10b or newer
Japanese standard
JIS K2204
2007 or newer
Chinese standard
GB 252 or GB 19147
>07/2013
Ultra low sulfur (≤ 15 mg/kg) diesel fuels that fulfill requirements of EN 590 (:2009 or newer), ASTM D 975
(-10b or newer), or GB 19147 Stage V can be used in all AGCO POWER engines.
CAUTION: Supplementary admixtures or additives are not allowed.
Fuels or mixtures which include e.g. ethanol, gasoline or kerosene are not permitted to be used since they
can shorten the expected lifetime and cause severe system failure.
