Approved Fuel
This engine is designed to run on diesel fuel. Use only high quality fuel meeting ASTM D975 No. 2D,
EN590, or equivalent. At temperatures below 32° F (0° C) winter fuel blends are acceptable. See the
engine operation manual for more information.
Biodiesel blends up to 5% (B5) are approved for use in this unit. The fuel used must meet the
specifications for diesel fuel shown above. In certain markets, higher blends may be used if certain steps
are taken. Extra attention is needed when using biodiesel, especially when operating in cold weather or
storing fuel. Contact your Ditch Witch dealer or the engine manufacturer for more information.
IMPORTANT: For machines operated in the U.S.: The engine in this product is certified to operate on
low sulfur diesel fuel (LSD) with a sulfur content of 500 ppm (0.05%) or less. Use LSD or ultra low sulfur
diesel fuel (ULSD) only. Using fuels with higher sulfur content will affect exhaust emissions. Such action
is a violation of the US Clean Air Act and US EPA regulations and will result in fines.
For machines operated outside the U.S.: Fuel sulfur content should be less than 5000 ppm (0.5%).
Worldwide fuel sulfur regulations vary widely. Fuel used should always comply with local regulations. If
fuel sulfur content exceeds 5000 ppm, use a lube oil meeting API CJ-4 (or other low SAPS equivalent)
and fuel with sulfur content above 500 ppm (0.05%, low sulfur diesel in the U.S.), reduce oil change
interval to 250 hours.
