3.1.7
Fuel
SPECIFICATIONS
The engine must only be used with diesel fuel oil which
conforms to the standards for use in modern diesel engines.
Fuel free from water and contaminants is of the utmost
importance. Detailed fuel specifications are listed in section
3.2.2.
BIO-DIESEL
The use of diesel fuels to a maximum blend of 5% (by volume)
of Fatty Acid Methyl Esters (FAME) known on the market as 5B
diesels is allowed as far as these B5 diesel fuels meet the
requirements in section 3.2.2.
Bio-fuels should be supplied by recognized and authorized
suppliers only.
DIESEL PREHEATER
As an option a diesel pre-heater can be mounted. This is a
special feature for applications in extreme cold conditions. In
this case the fuel filter will be inside the canopy and before the
filter will be a heating element that will prevent the formation
of paraffin crystals in the diesel and clogged filters as a result.
The operation is temperature-related. The system is controlled
by an independent switch to turn it “on” or “off”.
3.1.8
Lubricating oil
SPECIFICATIONS
The engine must be run on heavy duty lubricating oil meeting
the requirements in section 3.2.3. A well-known brand is
recommended.
It is very important to use the correct oil specification. Very
often local oil suppliers recommend a higher API class, because
they assume that a higher class is allowed. This is not the case.
One should not follow these recommendations as these higher
class oils contain additives that could cause high oil
consumption.
Never mix different types of oil.
