Diesel Particulate Filter Tips
1. Performance
The DPF works most efficiently at full throttle, as the engine is burning cleaner while the rpm is constant.
2. Maintenance
- The DPF is designed to last for a minimum of 3,000 – 3,500 hours.
- The filter is positioned for easy access on all machines to facilitate service, when required.
- The DPF is cleaned using a regeneration process, which occurs while the filter is on the machine.
- Low ash CJ-4 engine oil is required.
3. Operation
- There are no changes needed in general equipment operation.
- Only use low sulfur fuel.

Diesel Exhaust Fluid Tips
1. Maintenance
- Refilling the DEF tank can be incorporated into a regular maintenance or refueling routine.
- Always be proactive about checking DEF levels.
- Change supply module filters at required intervals.
- Low ash CJ-4 engine oil is not required but can be used.
2. Performance
- The SCR system is separate from the main engine function and does not affect horsepower or torque.
- SCR technology is highly efficient and reduces fuel consumption.
3. Operation
- Each machine includes a DEF gauge and a warning signal when DEF level is low, similar to a fuel gauge.
- Only use low sulfur fuel.
4. Purchasing DEF
DEF is available in four container sizes from Case: 2.5-gallon, 55-gallon drum, 275 or 330-gallon totes.
