Diesel Engine Oil
Refill Capacities
Cat Diesel Engine Oil (Cat DEO)
SMCS Code: 1000; 1348; 1395; 7560
Cat oils have been developed and tested in order to
provide the full performance and service life that has
been designed and built into Cat engines. Cat oils are
currently used to fill Cat Diesel Engines at the factory.
These oils are offered by Cat dealers for continued
use when the engine oil is changed. Consult your Cat
dealer for more information on these oils.
Lubrication Capacities
The refill capacities for the engine crankcase reflect
the approximate capacity of the crankcase or sump
plus standard oil filters. Auxiliary oil filter systems will
require additional oil. Refer to the OEM specifications
for the capacity of the auxiliary oil filter.

These values are the approximate capacities for the crankcase
oil sump which include the standard factory installed oil filters.
Engines with auxiliary oil filters will require additional oil. Refer
to the OEM specifications for the capacity of the auxiliary oil
filter.
Coolant Capacities
To maintain the cooling system, the total cooling
system capacity must be known. The approximate
capacity for the engine cooling system is listed.
External system capacities will vary among
applications. Refer to the OEM specifications for the
external system capacity. This capacity information
will be needed in order to determine the amount of
coolant/antifreeze that is required for the total cooling
system.

Due to significant variations in the quality and in
the performance of commercially available oils,
Caterpillar makes the following recommendations:
The external system includes an expansion tank with the
following components: heat exchanger, aftercooler, piping, and
keel cooling system.
(2) Add the capacity for the engine only to the capacity for the
external system. Enter the total in this row.

Note: Non-Cat commercial oils are second choice
oils for your engine.
NOTICE
Caterpillar does not warrant the quality or performance of non-Cat fluids.
The three current Caterpillar ECF specifications are:
Cat ECF-1-a, Cat ECF-2, and Cat ECF-3. Each
higher Cat ECF specification provides increased
performance over lower Cat ECF specifications.
A commercial oil must meet the following standards
to be considered an equivalent of a Cat Diesel
