All Models

Listed below are lubricants approved for use in Manitowoc
cranes when the outside temperature is continually below
-20°F (-29°C). Use these lubricants in place of the
lubricants called for both in Service Bulletin 18-1 and in the
crane's Lubrication Guide.
Except for hydraulic oil, all lubricants listed below can be
used year-round, unless the outside temperature exceeds
100 o F (38 o C).
NOTE Manitowoc Engineering Company also recom-
mends the use of preheaters (for engine and oil
reservoirs) when operating the crane in an arctic-
type climate. Contact your Manitowoc Distributor
for information about available arctic preheater
packages.
OVERHEATING HAZARD!
Avoid damage to crane components
from overheatingl Do not operate preheaters when
operating crane or when outside temperature is above
+30°F (-1°C).
