General Information
The abbreviations listed below follow S.A.E. J754 nomenclature. The classifications follow S.A.E. J183 classifications. The MIL specifications are U.S.A. Military Specifications. These definitions will be of assistance in purchasing lubricants. The recommended oil viscosities can be found in the "Lubricant Viscosities" chart in this publication.The prefix "SPC" is a general abbreviation used by Caterpillar to identify special oils such as synthetic or semi-synthetic oils.Engine Oils (CD/SE or CD/SF)
Use oils that meet the Engine Service Classification CD/SE or CD/SF (MIL-L-2104D and MIL-L-46252B).Consult the "EMA Lubricating Oils Data Book," Form SEBU5939, for a listing of oil brands.The percentage of sulfur in the fuel will affect the engine oil recommendations. See "Fuel Sulfur Content" in the "Fuel Specifications" section of this publication.Higher TBN values are essential to neutralize the corrosive acids formed during combustion. These corrosive acids could damage internal engine parts. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for correct engine oil recommendations.For more information on oil, fuel sulfur content, etc., refer to "Oil and Your Engines," Form SEBD0640 or contact your Caterpillar dealer.Power Train System Oil - Transmission, Bevel Gear and Clutch (CD/TO-2)
Use Service Classification CD oils that have satisfactory performance in the Caterpillar Oil Test Number TO-2. These oils are referred to as Service Classification CD/TO-2 oils.Hydraulic Oils (HYDO)
Use Engine Service Classification CC (MIL-L-2104B), CC/SF (MIL-L-46152B), CD (MIL-L-2104D) or industrial-type hydraulic oils that are certified by the oil supplier to have antiwear, antifoam, antirust, and antioxidation additive properties for heavy duty use.
Make-up oil added to the hydraulic tanks must mix with the oil already in the systems. Use only petroleum products unless the systems are equipped for use with special products. If the hydraulic oil becomes cloudy, water or air is entering the system. Water or air in the system will cause pump failure. Drain the fluid, retighten all hydraulic suction line clamps, purge and refill the system. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for purging instructions.
Lubricating Grease (MPGM)
Use Multipurpose-type Grease (MPGM) which contains 3% to 5% molybdenum disulfide. NLGI No. 2 Grade is suitable for most temperatures. Use NLGI No. 1 or No. 0 Grade for extremely low temperatures.
