system. The type of fluid to be used depends on the
ambient temperature.
Temperate and hot climates

Temperate climates
EP NLGI grade 2 extreme pressure grease, containing
-20°C to +40°C molybdenum disulphide.

This yellow fluid is compatible with standard fluid. If
adopted, it is advisable to drain the circuit completely.
Fluid type ISO VG 46
CASE Reference CASYNTH46
This fluid grade must be in conformity with CASE
France specification P9903203B.
Engine oil
CASE No 1 motor oil is the oil recommended for your
engine. This oil ensures correct lubrication of your
engine in all working conditions.
If CASE No 1 Multiperformance or Performance
engine oil cannot be obtained, use only oil of the API/
CE category.
NOTE: Do not put any Performance Additive or other
additive in the sump. Oil change intervals shown in
this manual are based on tests carried out on CASE
lubricants.

Fuel storage
Long storage can lead to the accumulation of impuri-
ties and condensation in the fuel. Engine trouble can
often be traced to the presence of water in the fuel.
The storage tank must be placed outside and the
temperature of the fuel should be kept as low as pos-
sible. Drain off water and impurities regularly.
Anti-freeze/Anti-corrosion
Use anti-freeze in all seasons to protect the cooling
system from corrosion and all risk of freezing.
For areas where ambient temperature is over -36°C,
use a blend of 50% ethylene-glycol based anti-freeze.
For areas where the temperature is below -36°C, it is
advisable to use a blend of 40% water and 60% anti-
freeze.
