Lubricant Viscosities
SMCS - 1000; 7000; 7581
The proper lubricant viscosity grade is determined by the minimum outside temperature when the
machine is started. The proper viscosity grade is also determined by the maximum outside
temperature when the machine is operated. Use the column that is designated "Min" on the table to
determine the viscosity grade that is required for starting a cold machine. Use the column that is
designated "Max" on the table to determine the viscosity grade that is required for operating the
machine at the highest anticipated temperature. When you refill the machine with lubricant, use the
highest viscosity grade that is allowed for the ambient temperature when the machine is started.
Consult your Cat dealer if additional information is needed.

Oils that are used in Caterpillar hydraulic systems must have a minimum zinc additive of 0.09 percent or 900 parts
per million (ppm).

Cat TDTO-TMS (Transmission Multi-Season (synthetic blend that exceeds the TO-4M multigrade specification
requirements).

Do not use API GL-5 or API GL-4 Gear Oils for the Vibratory support, the Final Drive Planetary (Drum), or the
Eccentric Weight Housing. 4C-6767 (185-4759) Synthetic Oil is a premium PAO (Polyalpaolefin) synthetic gear and
bearing lubricant with no viscosity improvers. This lubricant has an ISO viscosity grade of 220, and a minimum
viscosity index of 152. Commercial oil selected for this application should have a full synthetic base stock with no
viscosity improvers, an ISO viscosity grade of 220, and a minimum viscosity index of 150.
(10)
Do not use API GL-5 or API GL-4 Gear Oils for the Vibratory support, the Final Drive Planetary (Drum), or the
Eccentric Weight Housing. Select a commercial full synthetic gear and bearing lubricant with no viscosity improvers
and with ISO 68 viscosity grade. This lubricant should have a minimum viscosity index of 145, and have a minimum
pour point of 47 C (53 F).

Commercial Oils
If Caterpillar oils cannot be used, the following commercial classifications can be used in hydraulic
systems and in hydrostatic transmission systems.
Engine oils that meet the Caterpillar ECF-1 specification and have a minimum zinc additive of
0.09 percent (900 ppm)
API CG-4 engine oils that have a minimum zinc additive of 0.09 percent (900 ppm)

Note: Industrial hydraulic oils are not recommended for use in Caterpillar machine hydraulic
systems.
