FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Lubricants must have the correct properties for each application.
Hydraulic fluid
CASE hydraulic fluid is specially designed for high pressure applications and for the CASE hydraulic system. The
type of fluid to be used depends on the ambient temperature.
Temperate climates
-20°C to +40°C
Fluid type ISO VG 46
CASE reference: POHYDR
Hot climates
0°C to +60°C
Fluid type ISO VG 100
CASE reference: POHYPC
Cold climates
-40°C to +20°C
Fluid type ISO VG 22
CASE reference: POHYPF
These various grades of fluid must be in conformity with the CASE specification.
Transmission component oil
Extreme pressure oil used for transmission components inside sealed housings.
Extreme pressure oil TYPE API GL5 GRADE 80W90 or ISO VG 150.
Grease
The type of grease to use depends on ambient temperature.
Temperate and hot climates
-20°C to +60°C
Extreme pressure grease EP NLGI grade 2 with molybdenum disulphide.
Cold climates
-40°C to +20°C
Extreme pressure grease EP NLGI grade 0.
Engine oil
CASE engine oil No. 1 is recommended for your engine. This oil ensures correct lubrication of your engine in all
working conditions.
If CASE No. 1 Multiperformance or Performance engine oil is not available, use oil corresponding to category API/
CG/CF.
Do not put any Performance Additive or other additive in the sump. Oil change intervals shown in this manual are
based on tests carried out on CASE lubricants.
WARNING: The conditions of use for individual fluids and lubricants must be respected.
