Grease for the Autolube System
The grease used with the automatic lubrication system must not contain any graphite or PTFE.Note: Pumpability is based on "US Steel Mobility and Lincoln Ventmeter Tests". Performance may vary depending on lubrication equipment and the length of the lines.

(1) Preferred grease for most Off-highway Truck applications.Reference: Refer to Special Publication, SEBU6250, "Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations" for additional information about grease. This manual may be found on the Web at Safety.Cat.com.Diesel Fuel Recommendations
Diesel fuel must meet “Caterpillar Specification for Distillate Fuel” and the latest versions of "ASTM D975" or "EN 590" in order to ensure optimum engine performance.The preferred fuels are distillate fuels. These fuels are commonly called diesel fuel, furnace oil, gas oil, or kerosene. These fuels must meet the “Caterpillar Specification for Distillate Diesel Fuel for Off-Highway Diesel Engines”. Diesel Fuels that meet the Caterpillar specification will help provide maximum engine service life and performance.Misfueling with fuels of high sulfur level can have the following negative effects:
Reduce engine efficiency and durability
Increase the wear
Increase the corrosion
Increase the deposits
Lower fuel economy
Shorten the time period between oil drain intervals (more frequent oil drain intervals)
Increase overall operating costs
Negatively impact engine emissionsFailures that result from the use of improper fuels are not Caterpillar factory defects. Therefore the cost of repairs would not be covered by a Caterpillar warranty.Caterpillar does not require the use of ULSD in off road and machine applications that are not Tier 4/Stage IIIB certified engines. ULSD is not required in engines that are not equipped with after treatment devices.Follow operating instructions and fuel tank inlet labels, if available, in order to ensure that the correct fuels are used.Fuel Additives
Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner and Cat Fuel System Cleaner are available for use when needed. These products are applicable to diesel and biodiesel fuels. Consult your Cat dealer for availability.Biodiesel
Biodiesel is a fuel that can be made from various renewable resources that include vegetable oils, animal fat, and waste cooking oil. Soybean oil and rapeseed oil are the primary vegetable oil sources. In order to use any of these oils or fats as fuel, the oils or fats are chemically processed (esterified). The water and contaminants are removed.U.S. distillate diesel fuel specification "ASTM D975-09a" includes up to B5 (5 percent) biodiesel. Currently, any diesel fuel in the U.S. may contain up to B5 biodiesel fuel.European distillate diesel fuel specification "EN 590" includes up to B5 (5 percent) and in some regions up to B7 (7 percent) biodiesel. Any diesel fuel in Europe may contain up to B5 or in some regions up to B7 biodiesel fuel.Note: Up to B20 biodiesel blend level is acceptable for use
