LRC Engine (Less Regulated Countries)
This engine is designed to run on diesel fuel. Use only high quality fuel meeting ASTM D975 No. 2D,
EN590, or equivalent. At temperatures below 32° F (0° C) winter fuel blends are acceptable. See the
engine operation manual for more information.
Biodiesel blends up to 5% (B5) are approved for use in this unit. The fuel used must meet the
specifications for diesel fuel shown above. In certain markets, higher blends may be used if certain steps
are taken. Extra attention is needed when using biodiesel, especially when operating in cold weather or
storing fuel. Contact your Ditch Witch dealer or the engine manufacturer for more information.
Avoid static electricity when fueling. Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD)
poses a greater static ignition hazard than earlier diesel formulations. Avoid death or
serious injury from fire or explosion. Consult with your fuel system supplier to ensure the
delivery system is in compliance with fueling standards for proper grounding and bonding
practices.
NOTICE: Use only Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (less than 15 ppm sulfur content in the US and Canada or 10
mg/kg in EU and Japan) in this unit. Operating with higher sulfur content will damage the engine and
aftertreatment device.
IMPORTANT: Worldwide, fuel sulfur regulations vary widely. Fuel used should always comply with local
regulations. Prior to shipping, LRC units were filled with Tier 4i DEO. If operating fuel with sulfur content
above 15 ppm (15 mg/kg), change oil initially at 250 hours.
