Winter operation with diesel fuel
At low ambient temperatures paraffin discharges can
lead to blockages in the fuel system and cause oper-
ating faults. Below 0 °C ambient temperature use
winter diesel (down to -20 °C) (filling stations provide
this in good time before the cold season starts).
z
Below -20 °C paraffin should be added. The rel-
evant percentages are given in the adjacent dia-
gram.

Special diesel fuels can be used for arctic cli-
mates to -44 °C.
If it is necessary to use Summer diesel fuel below
0 °C, up to 30 % petroleum can be added according
to the diagram opposite.
Usually a sufficient cold resistance can be achieved
by adding a flow improver. Ask your DEUTZ partner.
Only carry out mixing in the tank. Fill with
the appropriate amount of paraffin first,
then add the diesel fuel. Normal and high
grade fuels may not be mixed.
