Maintenance and Specifications 4. Once OCR starts, the engine's rpm will rise to approximately 2,000 2,400 rpm and the cooling fan will increase speed; you will hear a change in audible sound due to the fan and engine speed increase. It is not necessary to open the hood on the engine compartment. Once OCR is complete, the engine rpm and fan will return to normal idling. The exhaust system will remain very hot for several minutes even after regeneration is complete. Do not reposition the vehicle over materials that could burn until the exhaust system has had sufficient time to cool. Depending on the amount of soot collected by the DPF, ambient temperature, and altitude, OCR may last from 10 to 25 minutes. Note: During stationary PTO operation, OCR will change the engine speed to 2,000 or 2,400 rpm (depending on vehicle application), therefore it is recommended you exit PTO mode before starting OCR. During mobile PTO use, OCR is not necessary; regeneration will function normally. How to interrupt/cancel OCR If OCR needs to be cancelled, pressing the brake, accelerator, or shutting off the vehicle will stop OCR. Depending on the amount of time OCR was allowed to operate, soot may not have had sufficient time to be eliminated, but the exhaust system and exhaust gas may still be hot. If the vehicle is shut off during OCR, you will notice turbo flutter. This is a normal consequence caused by shutting off a diesel engine during boosted operation and is considered normal. Filter service/maintenance Over time a slight amount of ash will build up in the DPF which is not removed during the regeneration process. The DPF may need to be removed for ash cleaning at approximately 120,000 miles (193,000 km) or greater (actual mileage can vary greatly depending upon engine/vehicle operating conditions) and replaced with a new or remanufactured (ash cleaned) part. The filter may need to be replaced at approximately 250,000 miles (400,000 km) depending upon engine/vehicle operating conditions. In both cases the engine control system will set a service light to inform you to bring the vehicle to the dealer for service. If there are any issues with the oxidation catalyst/DPF system a service or will be set by the engine control system to inform light you to bring the vehicle into your authorized dealer for service.
