Fuel quality requirements
The fuel should at least meet the legal requirements, national and international standards for marketed fuels, for
example: EN590 (with nationally adapted temperature requirements), ASTM D 975 No. 1D and 2D, JIS KK 2204.
Fuel specification varies according to the working temperature. Please contact authorized Volvo dealer.

According to current USA legal requirement, the sulphur content in the diesel fuel must not exceed 0.0015 percent
(15 ppm) by weight.
According to current EU/other countries legal requirements, the sulphur content in the diesel fuel must not exceed
0.001 percent (10 ppm) by weight.

Vegetable oils and / or esters, also called “bio-diesel”, (e.g. rape-seed methyl ester RME fuel), which are offered
on certain markets both as pure products and as mixed into the diesel fuel.
Volvo Construction Equipment accepts a maximum intermix of 7% bio-diesel fuel in the diesel fuel, ready mixed
from the oil companies. A higher intermix than 7% of bio-diesel fuel may cause:
- Increased emission by nitrogen oxide, (thereby not meeting legal requirements)
- Shorter service life of engine and injection system
- Increased fuel consumption
- Altered engine output
- Shortening the engine oil change interval to a half
- Shortened service life of rubber materials in the fuel system
- Less good cold handling properties of the fuel
- Limit storage time for the fuel, which may cause clogging up of the fuel system if the machine is laid up for longer periods

Hydro-treated vegetable oil (HVO) and fatty acid methyl ester
(FAME) biodiesel are both made from renewable raw materials
such as vegetable oils and animal fats, but they are chemically
processed in different ways.

HVO is created using a chemical process called hydro-treating.
Hydro-treating creates an oxygen-free hydrocarbon product that
is very similar to distillate diesel fuel and is well suited for use in
diesel engines. HVO fuels complying with the CEN diesel fuel
standard EN 590:2013 or with the European Fuel Quality
Directive 98/70/EC are approved for use in all Volvo Construction
Equipment diesel engines with no changes to maintenance
intervals. Paraffinic diesel fuels complying with the CEN standard
EN 15940 may be used in all machines operating outside the
European Union and for EU-certified engines up to the emission
level Stage IV. These fuels may also be used for the EU-certified
D11, D13 and D16 engines meeting the emission level Stage V.

Biodiesel is a product made from renewable resources such as
vegetable oils or animal fat. Biodiesel that has been chemically
processed into fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) can be blended
with distillate diesel fuel and used in some diesel engines.
