1. The lubricating oil and lubricating oil filter change interval can be adjusted, based on the grade of oil used. Use the Oil Drain Intervals in
this section.
2. The antifreeze check interval is every oil change or 20,000 Kilometers [12,500 Miles], 500 hours or 6 months, whichever occurs first.
The operator must use a heavy-duty year-round antifreeze that meets the chemical composition of CES14603. The antifreeze change
interval is 80,000 Kilometers [50,000 Miles], 2000 hours or 2 years, whichever occurs first. Antifreeze is essential for freeze, overheat,
and corrosion protection.
3. Follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance procedures for the starter, alternator, generator, batteries, electrical components,
exhaust brake, charge-air cooler, radiator, air compressor, air cleaner, freon compressor, and fan clutch.

Oil Drain Intervals

Reference Table 1 to determine the maximum recommended oil change and filter change interval in hours or months, whichever occurs first.

Table Notes
1. For Midrange engines, in areas where CH-4/SJ or CG-4/SH oils are not available, refer to the oil dain intervals in Section 2. As an
alternative, oils meeting CES-20075 can be used, but the oil drain interval and filter change interval must be reduced by half.
2. Outside North America, where oil meeting CES-20071, CES-20076, or CES20077 might not be available, Cummins Inc. parimary
recommendation is for an oil meeting Global DHD-1, as jointly developed by EMA, ACEA, and JAMA.
3. Ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel is defined as diesel fuel not exceeding 0.0015 (15 ppm) mass percent sulfur content (ultra-low diesel fuel is
also defined by ASTM S-15).
