information to enable you to perform necessary services for
efficient operation.
This manual lists the schedule of maintenance operations
required to assure optimum emission control and service from
the engine. Refer to exhaust emission label, affixed to the
engine valve cover for compliance information.
As the owner, it is your responsibility to be certain that
maintenance operations are performed at specified intervals.
In addition to controlling required emission levels, proper
maintenance pays off in improved vehicle performance and
more economical operations.
The maximum life and efficiency of equipment is assured when
the correct precautions are taken to keep dirt and other foreign
particles out of the units. Be sure that oil, coolant and fuel are
always kept clean and that combustion air is always filtered.
Always follow specified maintenance schedule and maintenance
procedures to reduce problems.
When new engine parts are required be sure to specify genuine
International® service or ReNEWed® parts to assure the best
results and high quality.

Operation (cont.)
ROAD USAGE Here are some good general guidelines to follow for correct road
operation.
1. Start the vehicle in motion by using the lowest gear in the
transmission. This allows the engine to easily start the load
without slipping the clutch.
2. Accelerate smoothly and evenly to engine rated speed.
Rapid acceleration results in high fuel consumption and no
increase in performance.
3. Engine speed should not be permitted to drop below peak
torque rpm when pulling at full throttle to avoid lugging
conditions.
4. When approaching a hill, depress accelerator smoothly to
start the upgrade at full power. Shift down as needed to
maintain maximum vehicle speed.

• Maximum fuel economy
• Long service life

DOWNHILL OPERATION Protect your engine when driving downhill as follows:
• Prevent over-speeding of the engine when going down long
and steep grades.
• Operate the engine in a gear that allows the engine speed
to run at a lower rpm.

CAUTION: When driving downhill, avoid engine damage by

making sure the engine is NOT operated above the high idle

Lubrication Requirements (cont.)

OIL VISCOSITY
Oil viscosity (thickness) is described as viscosity grade by the

Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). Colder temperatures
require lower viscosity oils to ensure good flow during starting.
Hotter temperatures require higher viscosity oils for satisfactory
lubrication.
Based upon the temperature range you expect before your next
oil change, use the chart and the recommended alternatives to
choose the proper viscosity grade.
Figure 26 SAE viscosity grades and temperature ranges
Increase in oil consumption may be expected when SAE 0W-30,

5W-30, 10W and 10W-30 oils are used. Check oil level more
frequently.
Form No. 1 171 809 R5


OIL CHANGE INTERVAL IDENTIFICATION SYMBOL
See Maintenance Instructions (page 73) in Section 7 for the

recommended oil change interval for your engine.
CAUTION: Use of oils exceeding the required quality level,
synthetic oils or other oils claiming longer service intervals
does not justify extending oil change intervals beyond those
recommended.
For International® diesel engines, the recommended oil change
intervals are based on the U.S. EPA Emission Standards for
on-highway vehicles with a maximum sulfur content of 500 ppm
(0.05%) in the fuel. Know your fuel sulfur content. When in doubt
ask your supplier or have fuel analyzed. If fuel contains more
than 500 ppm (0.05%) sulfur, reduce oil change interval.
NOTE: It is NOT necessary to reduce filter change intervals Figure 27 Identification symbol
when oil change intervals are reduced to accommodate fuels
with more than 500 ppm (0.05%) sulfur content.
An oil container symbol system has been developed to help you
choose the correct oil as follows:
• The top and bottom portion of the symbol shows the oil
quality, such as API Service CI-4 and bottom CI-4 PLUS in
the example. The symbol may show additional categories,
such as API Service CF/SL or CH-4.
• The center portion will show the SAE viscosity grade, such

keep the drain valve CLOSED.
• If the cooling system is being drained to perform scheduled
service, OPEN drain valve.
