RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS
COMPONENT LUBRICANT VISCOSITY (See Note 1)
Engine Engine oil with 1.00% ash is recommended. The use of low viscosity oils, such as
Sulphated ash must not exceed 1.85% limit. 10W or 10W-30, can be used to aid in
starting the engine and providing
Classification is as follows: sufficient oil flow at ambient
API Classification CG-4 or CF-4 temperatures below -5°C (23°F).
Military Specifications MIL-L-2104E Continuous use of low viscosity oils can
SAE Grade 15W-40 decrease engine life due to wear.
Transmission Hydraulic Transmission Oil, Type C-4. Ambient Recommendation
See Note 3. -30° to 30° C SAE 0W-20 (Arctic)
-25° to 30° C DEXRON-III
-15° to 30° C SAE 10W
-10° to 30° C SAE 15W
-5° to 50° C SAE 30
0° to 50° C SAE 40
Differential, Multipurpose Extreme Pressure type gear oil SAE 80W-90
Planetary Gears meeting MIL-L-2105C Specifications at ambient temperatures of -18° to 32°C
(No Zinc Additive).
Grease Fittings Multipurpose Extreme Pressure Lithium Grease No. 2 Consistency
Ejector Rollers with a typical melting point of 190° C.
Cooling System Antifreeze, Ethylene Glycol
Fuel Tank Diesel Fuel Oil with maximum sulphur 0.5% DIN EN590
Drivelines Multipurpose Extreme Pressure Lithium Grease No. 2 Consistency
(without 'Molybdenum'), with a typical melting
point of 190° C.
Note - For temperature conversions to degrees
Fahrenheit (°F) refer to the table below.
Note 1 - Consult your lubricant supplier for the correct
viscosity of lubricant to use when ambient
temperatures are consistently above or below those
listed.
Note 2 - Detroit Diesel does not recommend any
specific brand of engine oil but the use of oils that
meet API categories. Detroit Diesel recommends use
of only the multi-graded viscosity oils shown for the
various ambient temperatures listed.
Note 3 - Preheat is required below minimum
temperatures shown. Operation below the minimum
temperatures listed for the oil used without proper
preheat or warm-up results in greatly reduced
transmission life. Proper warm-up requires 20 minutes
minimum operation in neutral (with engine at part
throttle) before operating the transmission in gear.
Hydraulic Transmission Oil meeting Specification
EMS19058 may also conform to the Allison C-4
requirements. Consult your lubricant supplier for
confirmation.
