Note (1)All nonroad Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Japan 2014 (Tier 4 Final) diesel engines are required to use: – Ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuels containing 15 ppm (mg/kg) sulfur or less. – Cat engines are compatible with the following renewable, alternative, and biodiesel* fuels that reduce greenhouse gases***: • Up to B20 biodiesel (FAME)** • Up to 100% HVO and GTL renewable fuels – Cat DEO-ULS™ or oils that meet the Cat ECF-3, API CJ-4, and ACEA E9 specifications are required. – Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) that meets all requirements defined in ISO 22241-1:2006. * Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details. ** Engines with aftertreatment devices can use up to B20. Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to B100. *** Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels.
Air ConditioningThe air conditioning system on this machine contains the fluorinated greenhouse gas refrigerant R134a or R1234yf. See the label or instruction manual for identification of the gas. - If equipped with R134a (Global Warming Potential = 1430), the system contains 2.0 kg of refrigerant which has a CO2 equivalent of 2.86 metric tonnes (3.15 tons).
