Manual Extract: Grease & Fuel

Grease

For optimal performance, use extreme pressure oil, specifically NLGI Grade 2 or CASE Moly Disulfide grease. This ensures proper lubrication and protection of machine components under high-pressure conditions.

Fuel

• Use fuel that complies with ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) D975 standard.
• The recommended fuel is Grade Nu00b02. Using other grades may cause power loss and increase fuel consumption.
• During cold temperatures, a mixture of Nu00b01 and Nu00b02 fuel is permissible. Consult with your fuel vendor for winter fuel requirements specific to your region.
• Take care to avoid conditions where the temperature drops below the fuel cloud point, as wax crystal formation can lead to power loss or engine starting failure.

Important Fuel Handling Tips

• In cold weather, fill the fuel tank at the end of each workday to prevent condensation build-up.
• Extended storage can lead to impurities and condensation in the fuel, causing engine issues. Regularly draining off water and impurities is crucial to maintain fuel quality.
• Store the fuel tank outdoors, keeping the temperature as low as possible to safeguard fuel integrity.
