General Engine Fuel Information
The diesel fuel used for the engine must be clean and free of
dirt, contaminants and water.
In North America, diesel fuels that meet ASTM D975 for Ultra
Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) are required to be used. ULSD
has a maximum sulfur content of 15 Parts Per Million (PPM)
or 15 mg/kg. Recommended diesel fuel is No. 1-D.
For further information on engine fuel, contact your autho-
rized dealer.
Engine Oil
Oil Recommendations
Use oils with an API Classification of CI-4, CH-4 or CG-4.
Check / Add Engine Oil
NOTE: Check engine oil level with the engine stopped.
Checking engine oil with the engine running could result in
spillage or inaccurate reading.
1. Remove the dipstick ( A , Figure 25) from the engine. Oil
level should read between FULL and ADD marks on the
dipstick.
2. Add oil as necessary using the engine oil fill ( B , Figure
25). See Oil Recommendations. Do not overfill.
Change Engine Oil
1. Start the engine and allow coolant temperature to reach
150° F (65° C).
2. Stop the engine.
3. Drain the engine oil into an approved container using the
fluid drain station. See ‘Fluid Drain Station’.
4. Add engine oil using the engine oil fill ( B , Figure 25).
See Oil Recommendations. See Specifications for
engine oil capacity.
For further information on engine oil, contact your authorized
dealer.
NOTICE
Failure to maintain engine oil level could result in engine
damage.

Engine Coolant
Coolant Recommendations
The engine coolant, as delivered from the factory, is a 50/50
mix of ethylene glycol and low mineral content, low corrosive,
de-ionized water. This mix provides protection from freezing
to -33.5° F (-36.4° C).
When adding or replacing engine coolant, use an ethylene
glycol based heavy duty engine coolant that meets ASTM
D6210. Coolant may be either prediluted (pre-mixed 50/50
with water), or coolant concentrate which is then mixed 50%
by volume with low mineral content, low corrosive, de-ionized
water.
Never add coolant concentrate alone or water alone. Always
pre-mix concentrate and water prior to adding to the cooling
system.
When ambient temperatures are expected to drop below -29°
F (-34° C), ethylene glycol coolant concentrate mixed 60% by
volume may used. See table below for freezing and boiling
protection information.
Ethylene Glycol
Concentration Freeze
Protection
Boiling
Protection
50 Percent -36° C (-33° F) 106° C (223° F)
60 Percent -51° C (-60° F) 111° C (232° F)
Do not use ethylene glycol coolant in concentrations of great-
er than 60%. Greater concentrations result in less freezing
and boiling protection. 100% ethylene glycol coolant will
freeze at -9° F (-23° C).
Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCA’s) that are part of the
coolant provided by Allmand are depleted during engine
operation. These additives must be replaced periodically.
SCA’s must be added at the proper concentration. Over-
concentration of SCA’s can cause the inhibitors to drop out
of solution, and be detrimental to the cooling system’s perfor-
mance.
