Preventative Maintenance – Fluids Lubricant Application Guide Notice: Use the “Oil Viscosities” and “Oil Type and Classification” columns when determining the recommended oil for a machine compartment. Read ALL footnotes pertaining to the compartment or system in question. The footnotes are a key part of this guide. Notes: ● Refer to SEBU6250 or the appropriate Operations & Maintenance Manual for complete application information. ● Only use the oil type and classification that is recommended for the various machine compartments. ● Some machine compartments allow the use of more than one oil type. For the best results, do not mix oil types. ● Different brands oils may use different additive packages to meet the various machine compartment performance classification/specification recommendations. For best results, do not mix oil brands. ● Supplemental heat is recommended when below the minimum recommended ambient temperature. ● Oil availability will vary by region. COMPARTMENT OR SYSTEM
