Applications
Hydraulic Systems
Hydrostatic TransmissionsCaterpillar Hydraulic Oil (HYDO)
Caterpillar Hydraulic Oil is formulated with a balanced additive system. The system includes the following agents: detergents, rust inhibitors, antiwear agents and defoamers. Caterpillar Hydraulic Oil offers the following benefits: protection against mechanical wear, rusting, corrosive wear in hydraulic systems and wear in hydrostatic transmission systems. Caterpillar Hydraulic Oil should be used to achieve maximum life and maximum performance from hydraulic system components and from hydrostatic transmissions. Caterpillar Hydraulic Oil is recommended in most hydraulic systems and in most hydrostatic systems.
Caterpillar Hydraulic OilIf a different viscosity is required due to ambient temperatures, the following Caterpillar oils can be used:
Caterpillar Multigrade Diesel Engine Oil (DEO)
Caterpillar Single Grade Diesel Engine Oil (DEO)
Caterpillar Transmission/Drive Train Oil (TDTO)
Caterpillar Transmission Multi-Season Oil (TDTO-TMS)
Caterpillar Multipurpose Tractor Oil (MTO)Commercial Oils
If Caterpillar oils cannot be used, the following commercial classifications can be used in hydraulic systems and in hydrostatic transmission systems:
CH-4 engine oils that have a minimum zinc additive of 0.09 percent (900 ppm)
CG-4 engine oils that have a minimum zinc additive of 0.09 percent (900 ppm)
CF-4 engine oils that have a minimum zinc additive of 0.09 percent (900 ppm)
CF engine oils that have a minimum zinc additive of 0.09 percent (900 ppm)Note: Do not use CF-4 oils in 3500 Series diesel engines.Note: Industrial hydraulic oils are not recommended for service fill in Caterpillar machine hydraulic systems.Caterpillar Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES)
Caterpillar has a biodegradable hydraulic oil that is available for use in machine hydraulic systems. This fluid is recommended for the hydraulic systems when environmental compliance is required or desired.
Illustration 1 g00103844
Machines with this symbol are filled with biodegradable hydraulic oil. This symbol is located on the hydraulic tank.This fluid is formulated with the following components: a saturated HEES (Hydraulic Environmental Ester Synthetic), synthetic base stock and selected additives.Note: Use this oil only in hydraulic systems.Caterpillar Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES) may become darker in color throughout the service life of the oil. Analysis is required to determine the quality of the oil.The maximum recommended water content for hydraulic systems that are filled with Caterpillar Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES) is 0.10 percent. If the water levels exceed 0.10 percent, the water should be removed or the oil should be replaced.Consult your Caterpillar dealer for additional information on this product and on the potential use.
Do not use Caterpillar Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES) or commercial oils that meet the BF-1 specification in compartments containing friction material except Hydraulic Excavators. Refer to the machine Operation and Maintenance Manual or contact your local Caterpillar dealer for guidance before using Caterpillar Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES) or commercial oils that meet the BF-1 specification in Hydraulic Excavators.
Commercial Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES)
If Caterpillar Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (HEES) is not used, commercial oils that meet the Caterpillar BF-1 specifications should be used.
