FILTER 3969124 - Caterpillar

Altitude Operation
The fuel system settings and altitude limits are stamped on the engine information plate. When an engine is moved to a higher altitude, these settings must be changed by your Caterpillar dealer in order to prevent damaging the turbocharger, and to provide maximum engine efficiency. If the engine is moved to a lower altitude than that which is stamped on the engine information plate, the engine can be operated safely; however, it will deliver less than rated horsepower, and the fuel settings should be changed by your Caterpillar dealer to obtain rated horsepower.Stopping
