Maintenance recommended oils because they will provide acceptable engine performance and durability. These oils are also compatible with the emission control equipment of your vehicle to meet the more stringent emission standards. The use of correct oil viscosities for diesel engines is important for satisfactory operation. Determine which oil viscosity best suits the temperature range you expect to encounter for the next service interval from the following SAE viscosity grade chart. SAE VISCOSITY GRADES 10W-30 (Normal Usage) 15W-402 5W-401,2 0W-30 / 0W-40 F˚ C˚ -20 -10 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 -29 -23 -18 -12 -7 -1 4 10 16 21 27 32 38 EXPECTED TEMPERATURE RANGE 1 2 For severe duty usage, use SAE 5W-40 API CJ-4. For biodiesel (grades B6-B20) usage, use SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40 API CJ-4. An engine block heater is recommended at temperatures below -10°F (-23°C). The American Petroleum Institute (API) service symbol is used to identify the proper engine oil for RVICE your engine. The API service symbol C SE will be included on the oil container SAE 10W-30 you purchase. The API displays the oil performance category in the top half of symbol and the viscosity grade in the center of the symbol. AP I 4 J- 50 2013 Diesel (67l) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)

For biodiesel (grades B6-B20) usage, use SAE 5W-40 or SAE
15W-40 API CJ-4.
An engine block heater is recommended at temperatures below –10°F
(–23°C).
