Important
• The engine may be damaged if operated with improper oil
level.
• Do not exceed the MAX level because a sudden increase
in engine rpm could be caused by its combustion.
• Use only the recommended oil to ensure adequate
protection, efficiency and service life of the engine.
• The use of lubricants other than recommended may
shorten the engine life.
• Viscosity must be appropriate to the ambient temperature
to which the engine is to be exposed (Par. 2.4.1).
2.4.1 SAE oil classification
• In the SAE classification, oils are identified according
to viscosity without considering any other qualitative
characteristic.
2.2
VISCOSITYSAE
RECOMMENDED OIL
Danger
• Prolonged skin contact with the exhausted engine oil can
cause cancer of the skin.
• If contact with oil cannot be avoided, thoroughly wash your
hands with soap and water as soon as possible.
• For the exhausted oil disposal, refer to Par. 6.6 DISPOSAL
and SCRAPPING.
• The code is made up of two numbers. The first number
refers to the viscosity when cold, for use during winter
("W"= winter), while the second number is for viscosity at
high temperatures.
• Low S.A.P.S. technology (fuel with low Sulfated Ash, Phosphorus, Sulfur content) keeps catalyst in good working conditions.
The presence of sulfated ash, phosphorus and sulfur causes with time the catalyst clogging and its consequent inefficiency.
• For Mid S.A.P.S oil sequence the sulfated ash level is the same as API CJ-4 ≤ 1.0% but as per ACEA standardization those
oils are referenced as mid SAPS.
• Filtration of oils is critical to proper operation and lubrication; always change filters regularly as specified in this manual.

2.5 Fuel
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Important
• Use of other types of fuel could damage the engine. Do not
use dirty diesel fuel or mixtures of diesel fuel and water since
this will cause serious engine faults.
• Any failures resulting from the use of fuels other than
recommended will not be warranted.
2.3

NOTE: In a warranty case the customer must prove by a certificate from the fuel supplier that an allowed
fuel was used.

• Clean fuel prevents the fuel injectors from clogging.
Immediately clean up any spillage during refuelling.
• Never store diesel fuel in galvanized containers (i.e. coated
with zinc). Diesel fuel and the galvanized coating react
chemically to each other, producing flaking that quickly
clogs filters or causes fuel pump and/or injector failure.
Those engines are designed for fuels in accordance with EN 590 and ASTM D975 for a cetane number of at least 45. Since
those engines are equipped with exhaust gas after-treatment such as Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC), Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF), Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), they may only be operated with sulfur-free diesel fuels (EN 590, DIN 5168, ASTM
D975 Grade 2-D S15, ASTM D975 Grade 1-D S15). Otherwise, compliance with the emission requirements and durability are
not guaranteed.
Insufficient lubricating capacity can lead to serious wear problems above all in common rail injection systems. Too low a
lubricating capacity is particularly a problem in fuels with a low sulfur content (and in this respect sulfur contents <500 mg/kg
can already be considered low). An adequate lubricating capacity is guaranteed by the appropriate additives in low-sulfur (<50
mg/kg) or sulfur-free (<10 mg/kg or <15 mg/kg) diesel fuels according to EN 590 and ASTM D 975. In low-sulpur and sulfur-free
diesel fuels which do not comply with this standard, the lubricating capacity may have to be guaranteed by additives. The
parameter for sufficient lubricating capacity is a maximum wear spot of 460 micrometers in the HFRR test (EN ISO 12156-1).

2.5.1 Fuel for low temperatures
• When operating the engine in ambient temperatures lower than 0 degrees C, use suitable low temperature fuel normally
available from fuel distributors and corresponding to the specifications of Tab. 2.3.
• These fuels reduce the formation of paraffin in diesel at low temperatures.
• When paraffin forms in the diesel, the fuel filter becomes blocked interrupting the flow of fuel.
2.5.2 Biodiesel fuel
• Fuels containing 10% methyl ester or B10, are suitable for use in this engine provided that they meet the specifications
listed in the Tab. 2.3.
• DO NOT USE vegetable oil as a biofuel for this engine.

2.4
Biodiesel according to EN 14214 (only permissible for mixture with diesel fuel at max. 10% (V/V))
US biodiesel according to ASTM D6751 – 09a (B100) (only permissible for mixtures with diesel fuel at 10% (V/V))
2.5.3 Synthetic fuels: GTL, CTL, BTL, HV
It is a well-known fact that engines which are operated for longer periods with conventional diesel fuel and then converted
to synthetic fuels suffer shrinkage of polymer seals in the injection system and thus fuel leaks. The reason for this behavior is
that the aromatic-free synthetic fuels can lead to a change in the selling behavior of polymer seals.
Therefore, conversion from diesel fuel to synthetic fuel may only be done after changing the critical seals. The problem of
shrinkage does not occur when an engine was operated with synthetic fuel from the start.
2.5.4 Emission-Related Installation Instructions
Failing to follow the instructions in the applications guidebook when installing a certified engine in a piece of nonroad equipment
violates federal law (40 CFR 1068.105(b)), subject to fines or other penalties as described in the Clean Air Act.
OEM must apply a separate label with the following statement: “ULTRA LOW SULFUR FUEL ONLY” near the fuel inlet.
Ensure you are installing an engine appropriately certified for your application. Constant speed engines may only be installed

Warning
• Do not mix AdBlue® with fuel or other liquids (including water) and do not fill the fuel tank with AdBlue®.
• The presence of AdBlue® inside the specific tank is required to start the engine.
• Purchase in containers: the container, even if opened, can be stocked with the same conditions of a sealed container.
• Do not stock the container with a temperature higher than 35°C as this could alter the AdBlue®.
• In case of AdBlue® freezing inside the container (< 11°C | 51.8°F), AdBlue® can be used when it returns to its liquid state.
• Do not expose AdBlue® to direct sunlight.
• In case of opening and closing of the original purchase container, AdBlue® must be checked through a spectrometer to
check its quality before use.
• Do not insert altered AdBlue® in the tank as the engine could not respect the emission parameters, generate DCU errors
and as a consequence turn off or fail to start the engine.

2.6 Coolant recommendation
A mixture of 50% demineralized water and 50% low silicate ethylene glycol based coolant liquid must be used.
Use a Long Life or Extended Life Heavy Duty OAT coolant free of: silicates, phosphates, borates, nitrites and amines.
The following ethylene-glycol based engine coolant for all models within KDI engine family may be used:
The above coolants in concentrated formulation must be mixed with distilled, deionized, or demineralized water. A pre-mixed
formulation (40-60% or 50-50%) can be used directly when available.
Important
• Do not mix ethylene glycol and propylene glycol based coolants. Do not mix OAT and HOAT based coolant. OAT performance
life can be drastically reduced if contaminated with nitrite-containing coolants.
• Never use automotive-type coolants. These coolants do not contain the correct additives to protect heavy – duty diesel
engines.
OAT coolants are maintenance free up to 6 years or 6000hrs of operation , provided that the cooling system is topped up using
the same type of coolant. Do not mix different coolant types. Test the coolant condition annually with coolant test strips.
HOAT are not all maintenance free and it is recommended to have SCA (Supplemental Coolant Additives) added at the first
maintenance interval.

2.9 Inducement strategy of SCR system
The inducement is the operation aimed at reducing the engine performance due to a malfunction or tampering with the SCR
system detected by the DCU.
The inducement degree is decided by the ECU according to the error detected by the DCU.
The inducement can have the following 2 levels:
- Level 1: 25% reduction of the MAX available torque.
- Level 2: 50% reduction of the MAX available torque and 40% reduction of MAX rpm available.
Before activating the inducement (level 1 or level 2) the ECU activates a warning or a warning light on the car panel (refer to
the car documentation for the warning type).
The information on the car panel or the activation of the inducement can occur for the following reasons:
- Low AdBlue® level
- Poor AdBlue® quality
- Interruption of AdBlue® supply
- EGR valve malfunctioning
- Tampering with the monitoring systems of the SCR system.
The inducement strategy is applied according to:
- detected problem
- hours passed.
NOTE: Hours are reset after 40h if the DCU does not detect any fault, otherwise the hours are added to
those already counted. For low AdBlue® level, activation depends on the percentage of liquid inside
the AdBlue® tank, and the fault hours are not counted.
The strategy for the different faults is listed below:
Low AdBlue® level
- information activation on car panel: <10% of MAX level
- Level 1 inducement: <2.5% of MAX level
- Level 2 inducement: 0% of MAX level
Poor AdBlue® quality
- information activation on car panel: upon fault detection
- Level 1 inducement: after 10h from fault detection
- Level 2 inducement: after 20h from fault detection
Interruption of AdBlue® supply
- information activation on car panel: upon fault detection
- Level 1 inducement: after 10h from fault detection
- Level 2 inducement: after 20h from fault detection
EGR valve malfunctioning
- information activation on car panel: upon fault detection
- Level 1 inducement: after 36h from fault detection
- Level 2 inducement: after 100h from fault detection
Tampering with the monitoring systems of the SCR system
- information activation on car panel: upon fault detection
- Level 1 inducement: after 36h from fault detection
- Level 2 inducement: after 100h from fault detection

PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Diesel engine exhaust and some of its constituents are
known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects, and other reproductive harm.
3.5 Safety and environmental impact
Every organisation has a duty to implement procedures to
identify, assess and monitor the inuence of its own activities
(products, services, etc.) on the environment.
Procedures for identifying the extent of the impact on the
environment must consider the following factors:
- Liquid waste.
- Waste management.
- Soil contamination.
- Atmospheric emission.
- Use of raw materials and natural resources.
- Regulations and directives regarding environmental impac t.
24
EN
In order to minimise the impact on the environment, KOHLER
now provides a number of indications to be followed by
all persons handling the engine, for any reason, during its
