Literature Information
This manual should be stored in the literature storage area.The information contained in this document is the most current information available for coolants, fuels, and lubricants. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual for any special lubrication requirements for your engine.Whenever a question arises regarding the engine, this publication, or the Operation and Maintenance Manual, please consult any Cat dealer for the latest available information.Safety
Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual for your engine for all safety information. Read and understand the basic safety precautions listed in the Safety Section. In addition to safety precautions, this section identifies the text and locations of safety signs used on the engine.Read and understand the basic precautions listed in the Safety Section before operating or performing lubrication, maintenance and repair on this engine.Maintenance
Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual for your engine to determine all maintenance requirements.Maintenance Intervals
Use the Maintenance Interval Schedule in the Operation and Maintenance Manual for your engine to determine servicing intervals. The actual operating environment of the engine also governs the maintenance interval schedule. Therefore, under extremely severe, dusty, wet or freezing cold operating conditions, more frequent lubrication and maintenance than is specified in the Maintenance Interval Schedule may be necessary.Extended Engine Oil Drains and Warranty
Failures that result from extended oil drain periods are not Caterpillar factory defects and therefore are not covered by Caterpillar's warranty. In addition, failures that result from not using the recommended oil type are not Caterpillar factory defects and therefore are not covered by Caterpillar's warranty.Refer to the applicable Operation and Maintenance Manual for standard oil drain periods and to the Maintenance Section, "Lubricant Specifications" of this publication for engine oil type and viscosity grade recommendations.To reduce the potential risk of failures associated with extended oil drain periods; it is recommended that oil drain intervals only be extended based on oil analysis, and subsequent engine inspections. Oil analysis alone does not provide an indication of the rate of formation of lacquer, varnish and/or carbon on pistons and other engine surfaces. The only accurate way to evaluate specific oil performance in a specific engine and application that utilizes extended oil drain periods is to observe the effects on the engine components. This involves tear-down inspections of engines that have run to their normal overhaul period with extended oil drain intervals. Following this recommendation will help ensure that excessive component wear does not take place in a given application.
Light loads, low hour accumulation, and excessive idling time can contribute to excessive water in the crankcase oil. Corrosive damage, piston deposits and increased oil consumption can also result. If oil analysis is not done or the results are ignored, the potential for corrosive damage and piston deposits increases. Refer to the appropriate Operation and Maintenance Manual for guidance.
Note: Failures that result from extended oil drain periods are not warrantable failures, regardless of use of this recommended procedure. Failures that result from extended engine oil drain periods are considered improper use under the warranty.Aftermarket Products
