1.The lubricating oil and lubricating oil filter interval can be adjusted based on application, fuel consumption, gross vehicle weight, and idle time.

2.Antifreeze check interval is every oil change or 500 hours or 6 months, whichever occurs first.The operator must use heavy- duty, year-round antifreeze that meets the chemical composition of ASTM D6210. The antifreeze change interval is 2 years or 2000 hours 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, refrigerant compressor, and fan clutch.
