Hydraulic fluid
Type of oil to be used :
CASE MS1210 or CASE hydraulic fluid
CASE hydraulic fluid is specially designed for the
high pressure and the hydraulic system used on
CASE machines. The type of fluid to be used
depends on the ambient temperature.

Biodegradable fluid
This yellow-coloured fluid can be mixed with
standard fluid. When using this fluid, it is
recommended to drain the hydraulic system
completely.

Anti-freeze/anti-corrosion
Use anti-freeze in all seasons to protect the cooling
system from corrosion and all risk of freezing.
For environments with a temperature higher than -
36°C, use a mixture of 50% ethylene-glycol based
anti-freeze.
For environments with a temperature lower than -
36°C, a mixture of 40% water with 60% anti-freeze is
recommended.
Fuel
The fuel to be used must be in conformity with the
D975 standard of the American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM).
Use No. 2 type fuel. The use of other fuels may
cause a loss of engine power and excessive fuel
consumption.
In cold weather, a mixture of No. 1 fuel and No. 2 fuel
is temporarily permitted. Consult your fuel supplier.
If the temperature falls below the fuel cloud point
(point at which wax appears), wax crystals in the fuel
will cause a loss of engine power or make it
impossible to start the engine.
IMPORTANT :
I
n cold weather, fill the fuel tank
after each day’s work, to prevent the formation
of condensation.
Fuel storage
Prolonged fuel storage causes foreign bodies or
condensation water to accumulate in the storage
tank. Many engine failures are caused by the
presence of water in fuel.
The storage tank should be placed outdoors and the
fuel should be kept at as low a temperature as
possible. Condensation water should be drained off
at regular intervals.
FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Fluids and lubricants must have the correct properties for each application.
The conditions of use for individual fluids and lubricants must be respected.
