(1) Please select high-quality Cummins lubricating oil.
(2) The high-viscosity lubricating oil can reduce oil consumption and help the engine to
run well in cold climate. When the crane is working in high temperature, the
lubricating oil (SAE15W-40) is widely used.
(3) The low-viscosity lubricating oil (SAE10W-30) can facilitate engine startup and
ensure oil fluidity when ambient temperature is below -5
℃. However, long-time use
of this oil will shorten engine service life due to wear and tear.
(4) Do not mix lubricating oil of different brand or different quality grade when adding
oil. The lubricating oil volume is 23 L.
