SECTION 4 -- LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE
4--8
LUBRICANTS AND COOLANTS
Lubricants
The correct engine oil viscosity grade is dependent
upon ambient temperature. Refer to the chart on the
right when selecting oil for your tractor engine.
NOTE:
In areas where prolonged periods of extreme
temperatures are encountered, local lubricant
practices are acceptable; such as the use of SAE
5W30 in extreme low temperatures or SAE 50 in
extreme high temperatures.
Sulphur in Fuel
The engine oil and filter change period are shown in
section 4. However, locally available fuel may have
a high sulphur content, in which case the engine oil
and filter change period should be adjusted as
follows:--
Sulphur Content %
Oil Change Period
Below 0.5
Normal
From 0.5 -- 1.0
Half the normal
Above 1.0
One quarter normal.

Coolants
To reduce the amount of deposits and corrosion, the
water used in the cooling system must comply with
the following values.
Total Hardness:
Chloride:
Sulphate:
300 ppm
100 ppm
100 ppm
IMPORTANT:
See Operation 30,
page
4--43,
regarding use of coolant inhibitor where the above
mentioned antifreeze is not available. In those hot
countries where antifreeze is not available, use
clean
water only.
NOTE: See
Operation 30,
page
4--43, for further
details before topping up or changing the engine
coolant.
