The proper lubricant viscosity grade is determined by the minimum outside temperature when the machine is
started. The proper lubricant viscosity grade is also determined by the maximum outside temperature while
the machine is operated. Use the column on the table that is designated "Min" in order to determine the
lubricant viscosity grade that is required when you start a cold machine and when you operate a cold
machine. Use the column on the table that is designated "Max" to select the lubricant viscosity grade when
you operate the machine at the highest temperature that is anticipated. When you start the machine, use the
oil with the highest lubricant viscosity that is allowed for the temperature.

Machines that are continuously operated should use the oils with a higher viscosity in the final drives and
differentials in order to maintain the highest possible oil film thickness. Consult your Caterpillar dealer if
additional information is needed.

Refer to Special Publication, SEBU6250, "Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations" for further
information.

(1) First Choice: Cat Arctic TDTO - SAE 0W-20. Second Choice: Oils of full synthetic base stock that do not have viscosity index
improvers and do meet the performance requirements of the TO-4 specification for the SAE 30 viscosity grade. Typical
lubricant viscosity grades are SAE 0W-20, SAE 0W-30, and SAE 5W-30. Third Choice: Oils that contain a TO-4 additive
package and a lubricant viscosity grade of SAE 0W-20, SAE 0W-30, or SAE 5W-30.
(2) First Choice: Oils of full synthetic base stock that do not have viscosity index improvers and do meet the performance
requirements of the TO-4 specification for the SAE 30 viscosity grade. Typical viscosity grades are SAE 0W-20, SAE 0W-30,
and SAE 5W-30. Second Choice: Oils with a TO-4 type additive package and a lubricant viscosity grade of SAE 0W-20, SAE
0W-30, or SAE 5W-30.

(3) Except for the hydraulic drive winch gear case. Use SAE 30 viscosity grade for 0 °C (32 °F) to 43 °C (110 °F) or Cat
TDTO-TMS for -20 °C (-4 °F) to 50 °C (122 °F).
(4) Do not use SAE 50 viscosity grade oil in Individual Clutch Modulation (ICM) controlled transmissions. Do not use SAE 50
viscosity grade oil for the hydraulic drive winch case.
(5) Cat TDTO-TMS (Transmission Multi-Season) (synthetic blend that exceeds the TO-4M multigrade specification requirements).
(6) Cat Synthetic GO is an SAE 75W-140 viscosity grade oil.
(7) Supplemental heat is recommended for cold soaked starts below the minimum ambient temperature. Supplemental heat may be
required for cold soaked starts that are above the minimum temperature that is stated, depending on the parasitic load and other
factors. Cold soaked starts occur when the engine has not been operated for a period of time, allowing the oil to become more
viscous due to cooler ambient temperatures.
(8) API CF oils are not recommended for Caterpillar 3500 Series and smaller Direct Injection (DI) diesel engines. API CF-4 oils
are not recommended for Caterpillar machine diesel engines.
(9) Cat Arctic DEO SYN is an SAE 0W-30 viscosity grade oil.
( 10 ) API CI-4, API CI-4 PLUS, and API CH-4 oils are acceptable if the requirements of Caterpillar's ECF-1 (Engine Crankcase
Fluid specification - 1) are met. API CI-4, API CI-4 PLUS, and API CH-4 oils that have not met the requirements of
Caterpillar's ECF-1 specification may cause reduced engine life.
( 11 ) API CG-4 oils are acceptable for use in all Caterpillar machine diesel engines. When API CG-4 oils are used, the oil change
interval should not exceed 250 hours. API CG-4 oils that also meet API CI-4, API CI-4 PLUS, or API CH-4 must also meet the
requirements of the Caterpillar ECF-1 specification.
( 12 ) SAE 10W-30 is the preferred viscosity grade for the 3116, 3126, C7, C-9 and the C9 diesel engines when the ambient
temperature is between -18 °C (0 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F).
( 13 ) Commercial biodegradable hydraulic oil must meet the Caterpillar BF-1 specification. The listed ambient temperature range is
for the current Cat BIO HYDO (HEES), not for commercial BF-1 oil.
