1 - GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

GREASE
Use extreme pressure oil, type NLGI grade 2 or CASE
Molydisulfide grease.
FUEL
Use fuel which is to ASTM (American Society for Test-
ing and Materials) D975 standard.
Use grade N°2 fuel. The use of other types of fuel can
result in a loss of power and may cause high fuel con-
sumption.
When the temperature is very cold, the use of a mixture
of N°1 and N°2 fuel is permitted. See your fuel vendor
for winter fuel requirements in your area.
If the temperature falls below the fuel cloud point (point
at which wax begins to form) the wax crystals will cause
power loss or will prevent the engine from starting.
IMPORTANT: In cold weather, fill the fuel tank at the
end of the day’s work, in order to prevent the formation
of condensation.
Long storage can lead to the accumulation of impurities
and condensation in the fuel. Engine trouble can often
be traced to the presence of water in the fuel.
The storage tank must be placed outside and the tem-
perature of the fuel should be kept as low as possible.
Drain off water and impurities regularly.
ANTI-FREEZE/ANTI-CORROSION
Use anti-freeze in all seasons to protect the sprinkling
system from corrosion and any risk of freezing.
For areas where ambient temperature is over -36°C
(-32.8°F), use a blend of 50% ethylene-glycol based
anti-freeze.
For areas where the temperature is below -36°C (-
32.8°F), it is advisable to use a blend of 40% water
and 60% anti-freeze.
HYDRAULIC FLUID
It is indispensable to use a high quality, ISO VG 46 type
hydraulic fluid which is suitable for high pressure appli-
cations.

ble.
