NOTICE
Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD)
fuel 0.0015 percent
(15 ppm (mg/kg)) sulfur is required by regulation for
use in engines certified to nonroad Tier 4 standards
(U.S. EPA Tier 4 certified) and that are equipped with
exhaust aftertreatment systems.
European ULSD 0.0010 percent (1
0ppm (mg/
kg))
sulfur fuel is required by regulation for use in engines
certified to European nonroad Stage IIIB and newer
standards and are equipped with exhaust
aftertreatment systems.
Misfueling with fuels of higher sulfur level will
invalidate the warranty and have the following
negative effects:
• Shor
ten the time interval between
after
treatment device service intervals (cause
the need for more frequent service intervals)
• Ad
versely impact the performance and life of
after
treatment devices (cause loss of
performance)
• Redu
ce regeneration intervals of
aftertreatment
devices
• Reduce engine efficiency and durability.
• Incr
ease the wear.
• Increase the corrosion.
• Increase the deposits.
