"WARNING"
Improper practices, carelessness, or ignoring the warnings can cause burns, cuts, mutilation, asphyxiation or
other personal injury or death.
Read and understand all of the safety precautions and warnings before performing any repair. This list contains the
general safety precautions that must be followed to provide personal safety. Special safety precautions are included
in the procedures when they apply.
• Work in an area surrounding the product that is dry, well lit, ventilated, free from clutter, loose tools, parts, ignition
sources and hazardous substances. Be aware of hazardous conditions that can exist.
• Always wear protective glasses and protective shoes when working.
• Rotating parts can cause cuts, mutilation or strangulation.
• Do not wear loose-fitting or torn clothing. Remove all jewelry when working.
• Disconnect the battery (negative [-] cable first) and discharge any capacitors before beginning any repair work.
Disconnect the air starting motor if equipped to prevent accidental engine starting. Put a "Do Not Operate" tag in
the operator's compartment or on the controls.
Use ONLY the proper engine barring techniques for manually rotating the engine. Do not attempt to rotate the
crankshaft by pulling or prying on the fan. This practice can cause serious personal injury, property damage, or
damage to the fan blade(s) causing premature fan failure.
If an engine has been operating and the coolant is hot, allow the engine to cool before slowly loosening the filler
cap to relieve the pressure from the cooling system.
• Always use blocks or proper stands to support the product before performing any service work. Do not work on
anything that is supported ONLY by lifting jacks or a hoist.
• Relieve all pressure in the air, oil, fuel, and cooling systems before any lines, fittings, or related items are removed
or disconnected. Be alert for possible pressure when disconnecting any device from a system that utilizes
pressure. Do not check for pressure leaks with your hand. High pressure oil or fuel can cause personal injury.
• To reduce the possibility of suffocation and frostbite, wear protective clothing and ONLY disconnect liquid
refrigerant (Freon) lines in a well ventilated area. To protect the environment, liquid refrigerant systems must be
properly emptied and filled using equipment that prevents the release of refrigerant gas (fluorocarbons) into the
atmosphere. Federal law requires capturing and recycling refrigerant.
• To reduce the possibility of personal injury, use a hoist or get assistance when lifting components that weigh 23 kg
[50 Ib] or more. Make sure all lifting devices such as chains, hooks, or slings are in good condition and are of the
correct capacity. Make sure hooks are positioned correctly. Always use a spreader bar when necessary. The lifting
hooks must not be side-loaded.
• Corrosion inhibitor, a component of SCA and lubricating oil, contains alkali. Do not get the substance in eyes.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Do not swallow internally. In case of contact, immediately wash
skin with soap and water. In case of contact, immediately flood eyes with large amounts of water for a minimum of
15 minutes. IMMEDIATELY CALL A PHYSICIAN. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
• Naptha and Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) are flammable materials and must be used with caution. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions to provide complete safety when using these materials. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN.
• To reduce the possibility of burns, be alert for hot parts on products that have just been turned off, exhaust gas
flow, and hot fluids in lines, tubes, and compartments.
• Always use tools that are in good condition. Make sure you understand how to use the tools before performing any
service work. Use ONLY genuine Cummins® or Cummins ReCon® replacement parts.
• Always use the same fastener part number (or equivalent) when replacing fasteners. Do not use a fastener of
lesser quality if replacements are necessary.
• When necessary, the removal and replacement of any guards covering rotating components, drives, and/or belts
should only be carried out be a trained technician. Before removing any guards the engine must be turned off and
any starting mechanisms must be isolated. All fasteners must be replaced on re-fitting the guards.
• Do not perform any repair when fatigued or after consuming alcohol or drugs that can impair your functioning.

Section i-Introduction Page i-7
• Some state and federal agencies in the United States of America have determined that used engine oil can be
carcinogenic and can cause reproductive toxicity. Avoid inhalation of vapors, ingestion, and prolonged contact with
used engine oil.
• Do not connect the jumper starting or battery charging cables to any ignition or governor control wiring. This can
cause electrical damage to the ignition or governor.
• Always torque fasteners and fuel connections to the required specifications. Overtightening or undertightening can
allow leakage. This is critical to the natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas fuel and air systems.
• Always test for fuel leaks as instructed, as odorant can fade.
• Close the manual fuel valves prior to performing maintenance and repairs, and when storing the vehicle inside.
• Coolant is toxic. If not reused, dispose of in accordance with local environmental regulations.
• The catalyst reagent contains urea. Do not get the substance in your eyes. In case of contact, immediately flood
eyes with large amounts of water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Avoid prolonged contact with skin. In case of
contact, immediately wash skin with soap and water. Do not swallow internally. In the event the catalyst reagent is
ingested, contact a physician immediately.
• The catalyst substrate contains Vanadium Pentoxide. Vanadium Pentoxide has been determined by the State of
California to cause cancer. Always wear protective gloves and eye protection when handling the catalyst assembly.
Do not get the catalyst material in your eyes. In Case of contact, immediately flood eyes with large amounts of
water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Avoid prolonged contact with skin. In case of contact, immediately wash skin
with soap and water.
• The Catalyst substrate contains Vanadium Pentoxide. Vanadium Pentoxide has been determined by the State of
California to cause cancer. In the event the catalyst is being replaced, dispose of in accordance with local
regulations.
• California Proposition 65 Warning - Diesel engine exhaust and some of its constituents are known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.

AWARNING.
Abrasive material must be kept out of or removed from oil passages and parts wear points. Abrasive material
in oil passages can cause bearing and bushing failures that can progress to major component damage
beyond reuse. This is particularly true of main and rod bearings.
Cummins Inc. does not recommend the use of emery cloth or sand paper on any part of an assembled engine or
component including but not limited to removing the carbon ridge from cylinder liners or to clean block decks or
counterbores.
Great care must be taken when .using abrasive products to clean engine parts, particularly on partially assembled
engines. Abrasive cleaning products come in many forms and sizes. All of them contain aluminum oxide particles,
silicon carbide, or sand or some other similar hard material. These particles are harder than most of the parts in the
engine. Since they are harder, if they are pressed against softer material they will either damage the material or
become embedded in it. These materials fall off the holding media as the product is used. If the products are used with
power equipment the particles are thrown about the engine. If the particles fall between two moving parts, damage to
the moving parts is likely.
If particles that are smaller than the clearance between the parts while they are at rest (engine stopped), but larger
than the running clearance then damage will occur when the parts move relative to each other (engine started). While
the engine is running and there is oil pressure, particles that are smaller than the bearing clearance are likely to pass
between the parts without damage and be trapped in the oil filter. However, particles larger than the bearing clearance
will remove material from one part and can become embedded in one of the parts. Once embedded in one part it will
ISX15 CM2350 X101 General Cleaning Instructions
Section i-Introduction Page i-11
abrade the other part until contact is no longer being made between the two parts. If the damage suffiCiently degrades
the oil film, the two parts will come into contact resulting in early wear-out or failure from lack of effective lubrication.
Abrasive particles can fly about during cleaning it is very important to block these particles from entering the engine as
much as possible. This is particularly true of lubricating oil ports and oil drilling holes, especially those located
downstream of the lubricating oil filters. Plug the holes instead of trying to blow the abrasive particles and debris with
compressed air because the debris is often simply blown further into the oil drilling.
All old gasket material must be removed from the parts gasket surfaces. However, it is not necessary to clean and
polish the gasket surface until the machining marks are erased. Excessive sanding or buffing can damage the gasket
surface. Many newer gaskets are of the edge molded type (a steel carrier with a sealing member bonded to the steel).
What little sealing material that can adhere is best removed with a blunt-edged scraper or putty knife. Cleaning gasket
surfaces where an edge-molded gasket is used with abrasive pads or paper is usually a waste of time.
£WARNING£
Excessive sanding or grinding the carbon ring from the top of the cylinder liners can damage the liner beyond
reuse. The surface finish will be damaged and abrasive particles can be forced into the liner material which
can cause early cylinder wear-out or piston ring failures.
Tape off or plug all openings to any component interior before using abrasive pads or wire brushes. If really necessary
because of time to use a power tool with abrasive pads, tape the oil drillings closed or use plug and clean as much of
the surface as possible with the tool but clean around the oil hole/opening by hand so as to prevent contamination of
the drilling. Then remove the tape or plug and clean the remaining area carefully and without the tool. DO NOT use
compressed air to blow the debris out of oil drilling on an assembled engine! More likely than not, the debris can be
blown further into the drilling. Using compressed air is fine if both ends of the drilling are open but that is rarely the
case when dealing with an assembled engine.
Gasket Surfaces
The object of cleaning gasket surfaces is to remove any gasket material, not refinish the gasket surface of the part.
Cummins Inc. does not recommend any specific brand of liquid gasket remover. If a liquid gasket remover is used,
check the directions to make sure the material being cleaned will not be harmed.
Air powered gasket scrapers can save time but care must be taken to not damage the surface. The angled part of the
scraper must be against the gasket surface to prevent the blade from digging into the surface. Using air powered
gasket scrapers on parts made of soft materials takes skill and care to prevent damage.
Do not scrape or brush across the gasket surface if at all possible .
. Solvent and Acid Cleaning
Several solvent and acid-type cleaners can be used to clean the disassembled engine parts (other than pistons. See
Below). Experience has shown that the best results can be obtained using a cleaner that can be heated to 90° to 95°
Celsius (180° to 200° Fahrenheit). Kerosene emulsion based cleaners have different temperature specifications, see
below. A cleaning tank that provides a constant mixing and filtering of the cleaning solution will give the best results.
Cummins Inc. does not recommend any specific cleaners. Always follow the cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
Remqve all the gasket material, o-rings, and the deposits of sludge, carbon, etc., with a wire brush or scraper before
putting the parts in a cleaning tank. Be careful not to damage any gasket surfaces. When possible, steam clean the
parts before putting them in the cleaning tank.
.WARNING.
When using solvents, acids, or alkaline materials for cleaning, follow the manufacturers recommendations for
use. Wear goggles and protective clothing to reduce the possibility of personal injury.
Experience has shown that kerosene emulsion based cleaners perform the best to clean pistons. These cleaners
should not be heated to temperature in excess of noc (170°F). The solution begins to break down at temperatures in
excess of 82°C (180°F) and will be less effective.
Do not use solutions composed mainly of chlorinated hydrocarbons with cresols, phenols and/or cresylic components.
They often do not do a good job of removing depOSits from the ring groove and are costly to dispose of properly.
Solutions with a pH above approximately 9.5 will cause aluminum to turn black; therefore do not use high alkaline
solutions.
Chemicals with a pH above 7.0 are considered alkaline and those below 7.0 are acidic. As you move further away
from the neutral 7.0, the chemicals become highly alkaline or highly acidic.
Remove all the gasket material, o-rings, and the deposits of sludge, carbon, etc., with a wire brush or scraper before
putting the parts in a cleaning tank. Be careful to not damage any gasket surfaces. When possible use hot high

Page i-12 Section i-Introduction
pressure water or steam clean the parts before putting them in the cleaning tank. Removing the heaviest dirt before
placing in the tank will allow the cleaner to work more effectively and the cleaning agent will last longer.
Rinse all the parts in hot water after cleaning. Dry completely with compressed air. Blow the rinse water from all the
capscrew holes and the oil drillings.
If the parts are not to be used immediately after cleaning, dip them in a suitable rust proofing compound. The rust
proofing compound must be removed from the parts before assembly or installation on the engine.
Steam Cleaning
Steam cleaning can be used to remove all types of dirt that can contaminate the cleaning tank. It is a good method for
cleaning the oil drillings and coolant passages
"WARNING A.
When using a steam cleaner, wear safety glasses or a face shield, as well as protective clothing. Hot steam
can cause serious personal injury.
Do not steam clean the following components:
• Electrical Components
• Wiring Harnesses
• Injectors
• Fuel Pump
• Belts and Hoses
• Bearings (ball or taper roller)
• Electronic Control Module (ECM)
• ECM Connectors
• DOSing Control Unit
• NOx Sensor.
Plastic Bead Cleaning
Cummins Inc. does not recommend the use of glass bead blast or walnut shell media on any engine part. Cummins
Inc. recommends using only plastic bead media, Part Number 3822735 or equivalent on any engine part. Never use
sand as a blast media to clean engine parts. Glass and walnut shell media when not used to the media
manufacturer's recommendations can cause excess dust and can embed in engine parts that can result in premature
failure of components through abrasive wear.
Plastic bead cleaning can be used on many engine components to remove carbon deposits. The cleaning process is
controlled by the use of plastic beads, the operating pressure and cleaning time.
ACAUTIONA
Do not use bead blasting cleaning methods on aluminum pistons skirts or the pin bores in any piston, piston
skirt or piston crown. Small particles of the media will embed in the aluminum or other soft metal and result in
premature wear of the cylinder liner, piston rings, pins and pin bores. Valves, turbocharger shafts, etc., can
also be damaged. Follow the cleaning directions listed in the procedures.
ACAUTIONA
Do not contaminate wash tanks and tank type solvent cleaners with the foreign material and plastic beads.
Remove the foreign material and plastic beads with compressed air, hot high pressure water or steam before
placing them in tanks or cleaners. The foreign material and plastic beads can contaminate the tank and any
other engine parts cleaned in the tank. Contaminated parts may cause failures from abrasive wear.
Plastic bead blasting media, Part Number 3822735, can be used to clean all piston ring grooves. Do not sure any
bead blasting media on piston pin bores or aluminum skirts.
Follow the equipment manufacturer's cleaning instructions. Make sure to adjust the air pressure in the blasting
machine to the bead manufacturer's recommendations. Turning up the pressure can move material on the part and
cause the plastic bead media to' wear out more quickly. The following guidelines can be used to adapt to
manufacturer's instructions:
1 Bead size: U.S. size Number 16 - 20 for piston cleaning with plastic bead media, Part Number 3822735
2 Operating Pressure - 270 kPa (40 psi) for piston cleaning. Pressure should not cause beads to break.
ISX15 CM2350 X101 General Cleaning Instructions
Section i-Introduction Page i-13
3 Steam clean or wash the parts with solvent to remove all of the foreign material and plastic beads after cleaning.
Rinse with hot water. Dry with compressed air.
ACAUTIONA
The bead blasting operation must not disturb the metal surface. If the metal surface is disturbed the engine
can be damaged due to increased parts clearance or inadequate surface finish on parts that move against
other parts.
When cleaning pistons, it is not necessary to remove all the dark stain from the piston. All that is necessary is to
remove the carbon on the rim and in the ring grooves. This is best done by directing the blast across the part as
opposed to straight at the part. If the machining marks are disturbed by the blasting process, then the pressure is too
high or the blast is being held on one spot too long. The blast operation must not disturb the metal surface.
Walnut shell bead blast material is sometimes used to clean ferrous metals (iron and steel). Walnut shell blasting
produces a great amount of dust particularly when the pressure if the air pressure on the blasting machine is
increased above media manufacturer's recommendation. Cummins Inc. recommends not using walnut shell media to
clean engine parts due to the risk media embedment and subsequent contamination of the engine.
Cummins Inc. now recommends glass bead media NOT used to clean any engine parts. Glass media is too easily
embedded into the material particularly in soft materials and when air pressures greater than media manufacturer's
recommend are used. The glass is an abrasive so when it is in a moving part, that part is abrading all the parts in
contact with it. When higher pressures are used the media is broken and forms a dust of a very small size that floats
easily in the air. This dust is very hard to control in the shop, particularly if only compressed air (and not hot water) is
used to blow the media after it is removed from the blasting cabinet (blowing the part off inside the cabinet may
remove large accumulations but never removes all the media).
Bead blasting is best used on stubborn dirVcarbon build-up that has not been removed by first steam/higher pressure
washing then washing in a heated wash tank. This is particularly true of pistons. Steam and soak the pistons first then
use the plastic bead method to safely remove the carbon remaining in the grooves (instead of running the risk of
damaging the surface finish of the groove with a wire wheel or end of a broken piston ring. Make sure the parts are dry
and oil free before bead blasting to prevent clogging the return on the blasting machine.
Always direct the bead blaster nozzle "across" rather than directly at the part. This allows the bead to get under the
unwanted material. Keep the nozzle moving rather than hold on one place. Keeping the nozzle directed at one-place
too long causes the metal to heat up and be moved around. Remember that the spray is not just hitting the dirt or
carbon. If the machining marks on the piston groove or rim have been disturbed then there has not been enough
movement of the nozzle and/or the air pressure is too high.
Never bead blast valve stems. Tape or use a sleeve to protect the stems during bead blasting. Direct the nozzle
across the seat surface and radius rather than straight at them. The object is to remove any carbon build up and
continuing to blast to remove the stain is a waste of time.
Fuel System
When servicing any fuel system components, which can be exposed to potential contaminants, prior to disassembly,
clean the fittings, mounting hardware, and the area around the component to be removed. If the surrounding areas are
not cleaned, dirt or contaminants can be introduced into the fuel system.
The internal drillings of some injectors are extremely small and susceptible to plugging from contamination. Some fuel
injection systems can operate at very high pressures. High pressure fuel can convert simple particles of dirt and rust
into a highly abrasive contaminant that can damage the high pressure pumping components and fuel injectors.
Electrical contact cleaner can be used if steam cleaning tools are not available. Use electrical contact cleaner rather
than compressed air, to wash dirt and debris away from fuel system fittings. Diesel fuel on exposed fuel system parts
attracts airborne contaminants.
Choose lint free towels for fuel system work.
Cap and plug fuel lines, fittings, and ports whenever the fuel system is opened. Rust, dirt, and paint can enter the fuel
system whenever a fuel line or other component is loosened or removed from the engine. In many instances, a good
practice is to loosen a line or fitting to break the rust and paint loose, and then clean off the loosened material.
When removing fuel lines or fittings from a new or newly-painted engine, make sure to remove loose paint flakes/chips
that can be created when a wrench contacts painted line nuts or fittings, or when quick disconnect fittings are
removed.
Fuel filters are rated in microns. The word micron is the abbreviation for a micrometer, or one millionth of a meter. The
micron rating is the size of the smallest particles that will be captured by the filter media. As a reference, a human hair
is 76 microns [0.003 in] in diameter. One micron measures 0.001 mm [0.00004 in.). The contaminants being filtered
out are smaller than can be seen with the human eye, a magnifying glass, or a low powered microscope.
General Cleaning Instructions ISX15 CM2350 X101
Page i-14 Section i-Introduction
The tools used for fuel system troubleshooting and repair are to be cleaned regularly to avoid contamination. Like fuel
system parts, tools that are coated with oil or fuel attract airbome contaminants. Remember the following points
regarding your fuel system tools:
• Fuel system tools are to be kept as clean as possible.
• Clean and dry the tools before returning them to the tool box.
• If possible, store fuel system tools in sealed containers.
• Make sure fuel system tools are clean before use.

"WARNING£'
DO NOT OPERATE A DIESEL ENGINE WHERE THERE
ARE OR CAN BE COMBUSTIBLE VAPORS. The
vapors can be sucked through the air intake system
and cause engine acceleration and overspeeding that
can result in a fire, an explosion, and extensive
property damage. Numerous safety devices are
available, such as air intake shutoff devices, to
minimize the risk of overspeeding where an engine,
due to its application, might operate in a combustible
environment, such as due to a fuel spill or gas leak.
Remember, Cummins has no way of knowing the use
you have for your engine. THE EQUIPMENT OWNER
AND OPERATOR ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SAFE
OPERATION IN A HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT.
CONSULT YOUR CUMMINS AUTHORIZED REPAIR
LOCATION FOR FURTHER INFORMATION.
Cummins recommends the installation of an air intake

ACAUTIONA
Do not idle for extended periods of time. Excessive idle time can cause poor engine performance.
Internal combustion engines must not operate at low idle speed for extended periods of time. This operating condition
may lead to poor engine performance. The idle shutdown feature, available on most Cummins® engines, can be
programmed to shut the engine down after a period of low idle speed operation with no driver activity. A flashing
warning lamp will inform the driver of an impending shutdown. If an engine must idle for an extended period of time, it
should be done at fast idle (1000 rpm or greater). The Power Take-Off (PTO) feature, available on most Cummins®
engines, can be programmed to adjust engine speed with the use of OEM switches to pre-programmed set points.
Cold Weather
•
It is possible to operate engines in extremely cold environments if they are properly prepared and maintained.
Satisfactory performance of an engine in low ambient temperature conditions requires modification of the engine,
surrounding equipment, operating practices and maintenance procedures.
The correct engine coolant lubricating oil and fuels must be used for the cold weather range in which the engine is
being operated. Below are the recommendations for these critical engine fluids:
Ambient Temperature
oto -32°C [32 to -25°F]
Use 50-percent ethylene glycol antifreeze and 50-percent water for the engine coolant mixture.
Refer to Lubricating Oil recommendations and Specifications and Coolant Recommendations and Specifications in
Section V for the correct specifications.
The Diesel fuel must have maximum cloud and pour points 6°C [10°F] lower than the ambient temperature in which
the engine operates.
-32 to -54°C [-25 to -65°Fj
Use 60-percent ethylene glycol antifreeze and 40-percent water for the engine coolant mixture.

The cold weather operating aid is required for cold weather situations.
Engine Cooling
Because of changes to the cooling system as required by the addition of the EGR system, the engine cooling system
characteristics will be different from that of a non-EGR engine. .
1 The engine can run cooler at cold ambient air temperatures.
• Due to more coolant flow from the water pump and more capable cooling packages provided by the OEM, there
will be more coolant flow going through the engine. Due to the design changes, when operating in colder
ambient temperatures, the engine coolant can average 83°C [180°F]. The engine is designed to run efficiently
at lower coolant temperatures. Thermostats must not be replaced because the engine will not run constantly
at 82°C [180°F]. Additional control of coolant temperatures can still be accomplished by using winter fronts,
same as today's engines.
• Engines can run hotter at hot ambient air temperatures. Due to added heat rejection from cooling the EGR
valve, EGR cooler, and variable geometry turbocharger, the engine has been designed to operate at higher
coolant temperatures. It is not abnormal to see coolant temperatures between 82°C to 107°C [180°F to 225°F]
while operating in hotter ambient temperatures. Coolant fans will engage when the coolant temperature
reaches ggoC [210°F]. Engine protection for coolant temperature will begin at 107°C [225°F].
• Thermostat opening is not noticeable when monitoring coolant temperatures. Due to decreasing the number of
coolant thermostats from two to one on the EGR engine, it is no longer noticeable when the thermostat opens.
A gradual climb in coolant temperature occurs as the thermostat opens, compared to the slight decrease and
eventual stabilization of temperature seen on engines when the dual thermostats are utilized.
• With the addition of the cooled EGR system, the under hood temperature has increased by approximately 7°C
[ 20°F] compared to an non-EGR engine.
Performance/Driveability
With the addition of the EGR system to the engine, some of the characteristics of the engine are different from that of
a non-EGR engine.
• It is normal to see boost pressure fluctuate while the engine brakes are activated. To take full advantage of the
increased braking power provided by the addition of the variable geometry turbocharger, the engine brake selector
switch level chosen will not necessarily activate the same number of engine brakes as a non-EGR engine. The
ECM controls the number of engine cylinders that are activated for braking and the variable geometry turbocharger
will be positioned to meet the desired braking horsepower. The variable geometry turbocharger will adjust in order
to meet the power requirements depending on the engine brake position switch. More braking power correlates to
a more closed variable geometry turbocharger position, more cylinders braking, or both.
Shifting Techniques
Drivers have experienced a change in shifting techniques with EGR engines. With the variable geometry turbocharger
improving boost response, the engine speed will decelerate and accelerate quicker than a non-EGR. The additional
back pressure on the engine during out of gear, no throttle conditions causes the engine speed to drop quickly. The
ability of the variable geometry turbocharger to spool up quickly causes quicker engine speed acceleration during out
of gear, no throttle conditions. Drivers have characterized this as a more sensitive throttle pedal, meaning small pedal
movements create large engine speed changes.

Equipment with an aftertreatment system has three additional indicator lamps on the dashboard. Two of the additional
lamps, along with the CHECK ENGINE lamp, alert the operator of the status of the aftertreatment DPF. The third
additional indicator lamp indicates the position of the Regeneration Permit switch.
NOTE: Use the following procedure for additional information about the engine indicator lamps. Refer to Procedure
101-048 in Section 1.
Ultra low sulfur diesel fuel is required for an engine equipped with an aftertreatment DPF. If ultra low sulfur diesel fuel
is not used, the aftertreatment DPF or aftertreatment DOC can be damaged.
NOTE: The blending of fuel with new or used engine lubricating oil or other oils is not permitted on equipment using
an aftertreatment DPF.
NOTE: Use the following procedure for additional information about the fuel recommendations and speCifications
required for use with the engine being serviced. Refer to Procedure 018-002 in Section V.
To maximize the maintenance intervals of the aftertreatment DPF, Cummins Inc. requires the use of a lubricating
engine oil meeting CumminS@ Engineering Standard 20081. The use of oil meeting CES 20081 also requires the use
of ultra low sulfur diesel fuel to maintain the specified oil drain interval without risk of engine damage.
NOTE: Use the following procedure for additional information about the lubricating oil recommendations and
specifications recommended for use in the engine being serviced. Refer to Procedure 018-003 in Section V.
NOTE: Use the following procedure for information on the Maintenance Schedule, which provides the aftertreatment
DPF cleaning intervals for the engine being serviced. Refer to Procedure 102-002 in Section 2.
Some engines contain an engine control module (ECM) calibration feature, Aftertreatment Warm-Up, which activates
automatically during periods of extended idle to remove water and hydrocarbon accumulations from the aftertreatment
system.
The Aftertreatment Warm-Up feature is different from Active or Manual (Non-MisSion) Regeneration, as it operates at
a lower engine speed (RPM) and does not require aftertreatment fuel injection, because of lower aftertreatment
system temperature requirements.
The ECM will automatically increase the engine speed to 760 RPM for approximately 15 to 20 minutes, if the ECM
detects all of the conditions below have been met:.
• More than 4 continuous idle hours with exhaust temperature <110°C [230 OF] or
• More than 8 continuous idle hours with exhaust temperature <250 °C [482 OF]
• The clutch pedal is released
• The brake pedal is released
• The transmission is in neutral or park
• PTa or Remote PTa is turned OFF
• The vehicle speed is 0 mph
• The accelerator pedal is released
The Aftertreatment Warm-Up feature can not be disabled by activating the active regeneration permit switch, if
equipped, because the feature does not use aftertreatment fuel injection.
ISX15 CM2350 X101 Unique Operating Characteristics of an Engine with Afte [ ...]
Section 1 - Operating Instructions Page 1-11
Increasing the temperature of the exhaust gas that enters the aftertreatment system to above 250°C [482°F] for
approximately 15 to 20 minutes allows the Aftertreatment Warm-Up feature to deactivate. This can be done by
allowing the engine to operate in this condition for approximately 15 to 20 minutes, or by driving the vehicle.
NOTE: The engine speed will not be changed during power take-off (PTO) or remote PTO operation.
NOTE: The Aftertreatment Warm-Up feature can not be disabled or adjusted with INSITETM electronic service tool or
other electronic tools.
Regeneration
Regeneration is the process of converting the soot collected in the aftertreatment DPF into carbon dioxide.
The regeneration process requires heat to occur, and can be classified into two different types: passive regeneration
and active regeneration.
Passive Regeneration
Passive regeneration occurs when the exhaust temperatures are naturally high enough to oxidize the soot collected in
the aftertreatment DPF faster than the soot is being collected.
Passive regeneration typically occurs when the vehicle is driven at high speeds (ie, highway speeds) and/or under
heavy loads.
Active Regeneration
Active regeneration occurs when the exhaust temperatures are not naturally high enough to oxidize the soot collected
in the aftertreatment DPF faster than it is being collected.
Active regeneration requires assistance from the engine in order to increase the exhaust temperature. This is typically
accomplished by the engine injecting a small amount of diesel fuel into the exhaust stream, which is then oxidized by
the aftertreatment DOC. This creates the heat needed to regenerate the aftertreatment DPF.
Active regeneration will occur more frequently in vehicles with low speed, low load, or stop-and-go duty cycles.
Active regeneration only occurs if the engine control module has detected that the aftertreatment DPF restriction has
reached a speCified limit, and may only occur if the vehicle is moving above a speed threshold. The engine control
module will activate and de-activate active regenerati0ll as needed.
The speed threshold for active regeneration to occur is dictated by the vehicle manufacturer, and can be set at vehicle
speeds from 8 to 40 km/hr [5 to 25 mph].
For all ISX15 CM2350 X101 engines, active regeneration can occur any time the vehicle speed is above the speed
threshold.
Use the vehicle owner's manual for information about the speed threshold for active regeneration used for a speCific
vehicle.
Active regeneration is largely transparent to the vehicle operator. The vehicle operator may notice an increase in
turbocharger noise during an active regeneration event, and may notice that the high exhaust temperature lamp is
illuminated, if the exhaust temperature is greater than the high exhaust system temperature threshold set by the
equipment OEM.
During active regeneration, the exhaust temperature can be higher than when the engine is operating at full load. The
exhaust temperature during a normal active regeneration event could reach 593°C [1100°F], and possibly 816°C
[1500°F] under certain conditions.
NOTE: Use the following procedure for additional information on the engine indicator lamps for the engine being
serviced. Refer to Procedure 101-048 in Section 1.
"WARNING"
If the vehicle is not equipped with a High Exhaust System Temperature Lamp, follow these precautions for
active regeneration whenever the vehicle is running and the vehicle slows or comes to a stop. Active
regeneration can occur any time the vehicle is moving, and the exhaust temperature can remain hot after the
vehicle has stopped moving. The exhaust temperature could reach 816°C [1500°F), which is hot enough to
ignite or melt common materials, or to burn people.
Manual (Non-Mission) Regeneration
Under some operating conditions, such as low speed, low load, or stop and go duty cycles, the engine may not have
enough opportunity to regenerate the aftertreatment DPF during normal vehicle operation. When this occurs, the
engine will illuminate the aftertreatment DPF lamp to inform the vehicle operator that assistance is required, typically in
the form of a manual (non-mission) regeneration.
Unique Operating Characteristics of an Engine with Afte [ ...J ISX15 CM2350 X101
Page 1-12 Section 1 - Operating Instructions
Manual (non-mission) regeneration is a form of active regeneration that is initiated by the vehicle operator when the
vehicle is not moving.
Manual (non-mission) regeneration requires an elevated engine speed of approximately 1000 to 1400 RPM. The
length of a manual (non-mission) regeneration will vary, depending on how full the aftertreatment DPF is, but will
typically take anywhere from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours to complete.
A manual (non-mission) regeneration can be initiated in one of two ways:
1 A vehicle mounted manual (non-rnission) regeneration switch. Use the vehicle owners manual for the location and
operation of this switch, if so equipped (this switch may also be called a "parked regeneration" switch or "start"
switch). The vehicle mounted manual (non-mission) regeneration switch will only initiate a manual (non-mission)
regeneration when the aftertreatment DPF lamp is illuminated.
2 The INSITETM electronic service tool can initiate a manual (non-mission) regeneration by starting the
"Aftertreatment Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration Test" .
• WARNING.
During regeneration, exhaust gas temperature could reach 816°C [1500°F], and exhaust system surface
temperature could exceed 740°C [1300°F], which is hot enough to ignite or melt common materials, and to
burn people. Engine speed will increase and could possibly reach between 1000 to 1500 RPM. Follow these
instructions to avoid the risk of fire, property damage, burns, or other serious personal injury.
• Monitor the vehicle and surrounding area during the manual (non-mission) regeneration. If any unsafe condition
occurs, shut off the engine immediately.
Once the manual (non-mission) regeneration is complete, exhaust gas and surface temperatures will remain elevated
for 3 to 5 minutes.
Some engines contain an ECM calibration feature, Aftertreatment Idle-Up, that activates automatically and is used to
control the aftertreatment system temperature. This feature will maintain an elevated low idle speed, approximately
760 rpm, when an aftertreatment regeneration, active or manual, completes or is cancelled by:
1 Depressing the accelerator, clutch, or service brake pedal
2 Activating the aftertreatment regeneration inhibit switch or
3 Activating another engine feature that may interact with the regeneration, such as remote throttle or PTO.
NOTE: The Aftertreatment Idle-Up feature can not be disabled or adjusted with INSITETM electronic service tool or
other electronic tools.
Aftertreatment Switches
The vehicle manufacturer may choose to equip the
vehicle with up to two switches that interact with the
aftertreatment system:
• A manual (non-mission) regeneration switch (can also
be called a "START" switch or "PARKED
REGENERATION" switch).
• An active regeneration permit switch (can also be
called an "INHIBIT" switch, "DISABLE" switch, or
"STOP" switch)
Both of these switches are optional. Please reference the
vehicle owners manual for the location and presence of
these switches.

£.WARNING£.
When this lamp is illuminated, the exhaust gas
temperature could reach 800°C [1500°F], which is hot
enough to ignite or melt common materials, and to
burn people.
The HIGH EXHAUST SYSTEM TEMPERATURE lamp
indicates, when illuminated, that exhaust temperatures
are high due to regeneration of the aftertreatment DPF.
This lamp can illuminate during normal engine operation
or during stationary regeneration.
11000107
NOTE: The original equipment manufacturer (OEM)
determines whether or not the HIGH EXHAUST SYSTEM
TEMPERATURE lamp is installed on the vehicle. The
OEM also specifies the temperatures, vehicle speeds, and
other conditions at which the lamp illuminates. Refer to
the OEM service manual for additional information
regarding this lamp.
When this lamp is illuminated, make sure that the exhaust
pipe outlet is not directed at any surface or material that
can melt, burn, or explode.
• Keep the exhaust outlet away from people and
anything that can melt, burn, or explode.
• Nothing within 0.6 m [2 ft] of the exhaust outlet
• Nothing that can melt, burn, or explode within 1.5 m [5
ft ], such as gasoline, wood, paper, plastics, fabric,
compressed gas containers, and hydraulic lines.
• In an emergency, turn the engine OFF to stop the flow
of exhaust.
NOTE: The HIGH EXHAUST SYSTEM TEMPERATURE
lamp does not signify the need for any kind of vehicle or
engine service; it merely alerts the vehicle operator to
high exhaust temperatures. It will be common for the
HIGH EXHAUST SYSTEM TEMPERATURE lamp to
illuminate on and off during normal vehicle operation as
the engine completes regeneration.

NOTE: It is unlawful to tamper with, modify, or remove any component of the SCR system. It is also unlawful to use
OEF that does not meet the specifications provided or to operate the vehicle/equipment with no OEF.
OEF is required for an engine equipped with a selective catalytic reduction system. OEF is a fluid that is sprayed into
the exhaust gas prior to the aftertreatment SCR catalyst. The OEF vaporizes and decomposes to form carbon dioxide
and ammonia. The ammonia reacts with the NOx emissions over the aftertreatment SCR catalyst to form nitrogen
and water.
DEF:
• may have a slight ammonia smell
• is colorless
• is non-toxic and non-polluting
• is non-flammable
• Urea is naturally occurring and is biodegradable.
Reference the OEF Recommendations and Specifications in Section V for OEF specifications. Refer to Procedure
018-026 in Section V.
NOTE: Cummins Inc. supplies the aftertreatment OEF dosing unit, aftertreatment OEF dosing valve, and the
aftertreatment SCR catalyst. The vehicle manufacturer supplies the OEF tank, the OEF lines, the OEF tank
temperature and level sensor, and all wiring between the components.
The aftertreatment OEF dosing unit pumps OEF from the OEF tank to the aftertreatment OEF dosing valve. The
aftertreatment OEF dosing unit is electrically heated, and contains a filter that is a maintenance item.
NOTE: Reference the Maintenance Schedule for the aftertreatment OEF dosing unit filter maintenance interval. Refer
to Procedure 102-002 in Section 2.
The aftertreatment OEF dosing valve is coolant cooled, and sprays OEF into the exhaust.
The engine control module controls the amount of OEF sprayed into the exhaust. It also controls the OEF tank heater
and OEF line heaters.
The aftertreatment SCR catalyst uses OEF to reduce the NOx emissions by converting the engine out NOx into
nitrogen and water. The aftertreatment SCR catalyst itself requires no maintenance.
A vehicle with SCR will be equipped with an additional lamp on the dashboard, the aftertreatment OEF lamp. This
lamp, along with the check engine lamp and stop engine lamp, alert the operator to the level of OEF in the tank. As the
OEF tank level approaches empty, the aftertreatment OEF lamp will illuminate and engine power will be reduced.
Attempting to operate the vehicle with no OEF in the tank will result in the vehicle speed being limited to 8 km/h [5
mph].
NOTE: See Section 1 for additional information on the aftertreatment diesel fluid lamp and associated engine derates.
OEF is sprayed into the exhaust when the temperature in the aftertreatment SCR catalyst reaches approximately
250°C [482°F]. The amount of OEF consumed will differ from vehicle to vehicle, as OEF consumption depends on
engine speed and load.
Even though OEF freezes at approximately -12°C [11°F], the SCR system is designed to be frozen and thawed. The
OEF tank is heated by engine coolant, and the OEF lines and aftertreatment OEF dosing unit are electrically heated.
No operator interaction is needed when operating in cold temperatures; heating and thawing are controlled
automatically by the engine ECM and aftertreatment OEF controller.
After turning the keyswitch OFF on a vehicle with SCR, a pumping sound may be heard from underneath the
vehicle. This sound is the aftertreatment OEF dosing unit purging any unused OEF from the system and returning it to
the tank. This is normal system operation. The purge process takes approximately 60 seconds to complete. Do not
disconnect the vehicle batteries during this process to avoid system damage.
Under certain conditions (cold or very dry), water condensation, in the form of water vapor, can be seen coming from
the vehicle tailpipe. This is normal operation and will clear within a few minutes of normal vehicle operation.
malfunction indicator lamp (MIl), will illuminate to inform the driver of the malfunction, and a fault code, which will
identify the likely malfunction, is stored in the ECM.
An OBO system operates very similar to traditional Cummins® diagnostic system. Both store fault codes, induce
derates when required to protect the engine and aftertreatment from further damage, and light dashboard lamps.
These fault codes are used by the service channel for troubleshooting and repair.
Differences between an OBO system and the traditional Cummins® diagnostic system are that an OBO system will
illuminate the MIL, detect deteriorated components and systems (not just total malfunctions), and perform multiple trip
diagnostics. Multiple trip diagnostics are malfunctions that have to occur in multiple consecutive trips before the MIL
will be illuminated. A trip is a condition or operating state the engine must operate for the OBO fault code to gather
information and determine if a malfunction has occurred. The MIL will turn on when an OBO fault code is logged, and
in most cases, it takes three trips without the malfunction occurring again to clear the lamp.
NOTE: For more information on the MIL and what the operator should do when the MIL illuminates, reference the
following procedure. Refer to Procedure 101-048 in Section 1.
.6CAUTION.6
Do not operate the engine beyond the maximum
engine speed. Operating the engine beyond the
maximum engine speed can cause severe engine
damage. Use proper operating techniques for the
vehicle, vessel, or equipment to prevent engine

Cooling System
General Information
.WARNING.
Do not remove the pressure cap from a hot engine.
Wait until the coolant temperature is below 50°C
[120°F] before removing the pressure cap. Heated
coolant spray or steam can cause personal injury.
NOTE: Never use a sealing additive to stop leaks in the
coolant system. This can result in coolant system plugging
and inadequate coolant flow, causing the engine to
overheat.
The engine coolant level must be checked daily.
ACAUTIONA
Do not add cold coolant to a hot engine. Engine
castings can be damaged. Allow the engine to cool
below SO°C [120°F] before adding coolant.
NOTE: In the event of a water pump or EGR cooler
malfunction, check the coolant level switch or sensor for
proper operation. Consult the OEM service manual for
operational checks and repairs.
On applications that use a coolant recovery system, check
to make sure the coolant is at the appropriate level in the
coolant recovery tank for the engine temperature.
Many coolant recovery/expansion tanks, also called "top
tanks", have sight glasses or are made of a clear material
(not shown) to aid in checking the coolant level without
removing the radiator cap.
It is important to understand the impact of temperature on
the expansion of the coolant. Most "top tanks" do not
have a provision for a "FULL HOT" coolant level. Filling
the "top tank" while hot will result in a low operating level
once the system has cooled.
Fill the cooling system with coolant to the bottom of the fill
neck in the radiator fill or recovery/expansion tank.
NOTE: Some radiators have two fill necks, both of which
must be filled when the cooling system is drained.
Cooling System ISX15 CM2350 X101
Page 9-2 Section 9 - Maintenance Procedures at 400,000 Kilometers [250,000 Miles], 6000 Hours [ ...]
Drain
Position the equipment on level ground.
"WARNING"
Do not remove the pressure cap from a hot engine.
Wait until the coolant temperature is below sOGe
[120G F] before removing the pressure cap. Heated
coolant spray or steam can cause personal injury.
NOTE: If the coolant is being changed, or if the cooling
system is being flushed, leave the coolant flow valves to
the equipment heating systems open in order to
completely drain the system.
NOTE: Refer to the OEM service manual for special
coolant drain requirements. Special instructions may also
be located near the cooling system access point or fill
door on the vehicle.
Isolate the engine from the vehicle cooling system by
closing coolant flow valves to the equipment heating
systems before starting the repair. This will prevent the
heater circuit from draining, minimizing the chance for air
pockets to be present during the fill process.
This air can be very difficult to purge in some applications
that have several feet of plumbing and multiple heater
cores.
Remove the radiator cap or expansion tank fill cap to
allow the coolant to drain completely.

ckSOOwa electronic service tool Diesel Exhaust Fluid Doser
Pump Override Test to check the system for
leaks. This will spray DEF into the exhaust system at
temperatures too low to evaporate, resulting in
deposit formations in the exhaust system.
NOTE: The aftertreatment DEF dosing system will not
prime until the correct selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
temperatures are reached. To verify that there are no DEF
leaks, test drive the vehicle for a minimum of 15 minutes
to get the SCR system up to temperature.
- Connect the batteries. Refer to the OEM service
manual.
- Operate the engine and check for leaks.
ISX15 CM2350 X101 Aftertreatment Diesel Particulate Filter
Section 10 - Maintenance Procedures at 480,000 Kilometers [300,000 Miles] or 6750 Hours Page 10-5
.WARNING.
The material captured in a diesel particulate filter may
contain elevated concentrations of metals; primarily
zinc, molybdenum, and possibly polynuclear aromatic
hydrocarbons, that may be regulated. These materials
must be characterized, handled, and disposed of
according to applicable local regulations. In addition,
due to the presence of the above-listed chemicals and
other potentially toxic components such as oxides of
calcium, zinc, phosphorous, silicon, sulfur, and iron,
exhaust filter maintenance must be completed only by
appropriately trained personnel.
,6CAUTION,6
The aftertreatment diesel oxidation catalyst elements
contained in the aftertreatment system are made of
brittle material. Do not drop or strike the side of the
aftertreatment system as damage to the
aftertreatment diesel oxidation catalyst element can
result.
Due to the number of exhaust aftertreatment applications,
this document has been written to be generic. Not all
illustrations within this document will represent the
application being serviced.
The aftertreatment system is composed of three sections.
These sections are:
1 Aftertreatment Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)
2 Aftertreatment Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
3 Outlet.
NOTE: The aftertreatment DOC is integrated into the inlet
of the exhaust aftertreatment system. Refer to a
Cummins® Authorized Repair Location for aftertreatment
inlet service guidelines.
NOTE: If the aftertreatment DPF is being replaced due to
progressive damage from engine oil or fuel, clean the
exhaust pipe from the turbocharger outlet to the
aftertreatment DOC.
NOTE: Do not steam clean the inlet of the DOC.

Page 10-6 Section 10 - Maintenance Procedures at 480,000 Kilometers [300,000 Miles] or 6750 Hours
~ Maintenance Check
If the aftertreatment DPF is being removed for an ash
cleaning or soot cleaning maintenance interval, the
aftertreatment DPF will need to be removed and cleaned
with a cleaning tool approved by Cummins Inc. Contact a
Cummins® Authorized Repair Location for information
regarding parts and operation of Cummins Inc. approved
cleaning tools. Conventional cleaning methods can not be
used to clean an aftertreatment DPF.
Because it can be difficult to determine if an
aftertreatment DPF is plugged with ash or soot, it will be
necessary to clean the aftertreatment DPF before
performing a stationary regeneration to prevent any
system damage from occurring. Use the following
procedure for information· on how to perform a stationary
regeneration. Refer to Procedure 101-047 in Section 1.
Performing the ash and/or soot cleaning procedure will:
• Remove excess soot to allow a stationary regeneration
without damaging the aftertreatment DPF.
• Allow the aftertreatment DPF to be reused after Fault
Code 1922 occurs.
• Remove excess ash and improve regeneration
frequency. It is possible for ash accumulation to occur
due to excessive oil consumption or poor fuel quality.
Ash often will accumulate on the aftertreatment DPF
face as a grey or orange powdery substance. An
indicator of ash accumulation in the filter is an almost
immediate illumination of the DPF lamp after an
automatic or stationary regeneration takes place.
Performing a stationary regeneration after cleaning the
aftertreatment DPF for ash and/or soot will:
• Remove any residual soot from the s~ystem that was
not removed during the cleaning procedure
• Test the DOC efficiency
• Test the aftertreatment system functionality.
NOTE: Soot will plug the cleaning machine filter quicker
than ash. Cleaning soot from a DPF using Cummins Inc.
approved machines can result in the need for shorter
maintenance intervals for the cleaning machine filter.

mounted fuel filter options.
NOTE: Engines equipped with priming pumps do not
require the fuel filter to be filled prior to installation, if the
following filling procedure is followed.
05cO0343
....WARNING.A.
When servicing the engine do not rotate the
crankshaft with a high-pressure fuel system joint
open. Rotating the crankshaft can create highly
pressurized fuel in the fuel system. High-pressure
fuel spray can penetrate the skin, resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
NOTE: If the engine is equipped with an air bleed fuel
transfer line, the diagnostic fuel line is not needed. The air
bleed fuel transfer line continually bleeds off fuel and any
air present in that fuel to the drain system.
NOTE: If the air is not properly purged from the fuel
system, the engine will be difficult to start, but will run
smoothly once it starts. If the engine is shut OFF, it will be
difficult to restart.
To assist in fuel system priming and removing air from the
fuel system, an orificed diagnostic fuel line, Part Number
3164621, can be used to bleed air from the low-pressure
fuel system.
Install the orificed diagnostic fuel line to the Compuchek™
fitting at the inlet to the pressure side fuel filter. Turn the
keyswitch to the ON position. Do not start the engine.
Allow the priming pump to run and observe the orificed
diagnostic fuel line. When a solid stream of fuel exits the
line, the initial priming process is complete. It may be
necessary to repeat this process two or three times.

Diesel Exhaust Fluid Recommendations and Specifications [ ...] ISX15 CM2350 X101
PageV-10 Section V - Maintenance Specifications
.AWARNING"
It is unlawful to tamper with or remove any component of the aftertreatment system. It is also unlawful to use
a Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) that does not meet the specifications provided or to operate the vehiclel
equipment with no Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DE F).
.AWARNING"
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) contains urea. Do not get the substance in your eyes. In case of contact,
immediately flush eyes with large amounts of water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Do not swallow internally. In
the event the diesel exhaust fluid is ingested, contact a physician immediately. Reference the Materials Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS) for additional information .
..6.CAUTION..6.
Never attempt to create Diesel Exhaust Fluid by mixing agricultural grade urea with water. Agricultural grade
urea does not meet the necessary specifications required and the aftertreatment system may be damaged.
Cummins Inc. requires the use of Diesel Exhaust Fluid meeting ISO 22241-1. There is NO acceptable substitute.
NOTE: Some locations may reference the DIN 70070 standard. Diesel Exhaust Fluid specification limits of this
standard are identical to 150 22241-1.
Cummins Inc. is not responsible for failures or damage resulting from what Cummins Inc. determines to be abuse or
neglect, including but not limited to: operation without correctly specified Diesel Exhaust Fluid; lack of maintenance of
aftertreatment; improper storage, or shutdown practices; unauthorized modifications of the engine and aftertreatment.
Cummins is also not responsible for failures caused by incorrect Diesel Exhaust Fluid or by water, dirt or other
contaminants in the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
For further details and discussion of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) for Cummins® engines. Refer to the Diesel Exhaust
Fluid Specifications for Cummins® Selective Catalytic Reduction Systems, Service Bulletin Number 4021566.
For engines using SCR operating in the United States and
Canada, it is also strongly recommended that the Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) used be certified by the American
Petroleum Institute (API). This would be indicated by a
symbol on the container/dispensing system as shown.
11900149
The following are other common names used for Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF):
• Urea
• AUS 32 (Aqueous Urea Solution 32)
• AdBlue
• NOx Reduction Agent
• Catalyst Solution
• DEF
Regardless of what the Diesel Exhaust Fluid is called, the Diesel Exhaust Fluid must meet the specifications as
outlined in the General Information section of this procedure.
Storage
NOTE: The following information is for reference and is to be used as a guideline only. There are many factors that
determine Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) shelf life, with temperature and duration being two of the major determining
contributors. If in doubt, check the concentration of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), refer to the Test step of this
procedure, or replace the fluid with known quality Diesel Exhaust Fluid.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid has a limited shelf life, both in the vehicle's diesel exhaust fluid tank and in storage/bulk!
transportation containers.
The following conditions are ideal for maintaining DEF quality and shelf life during prolonged transportation and
storage:
• Storage temperature between 23°F and 77°F (-SOC and 2S°C)
• Store in sealed containers to avoid contamination
• Avoid direct sunlight
In these conditions, DEF has a minimum expected shelf life of 18 months. If stored at higher temperatures for
extended periods of time, the shelf life will be reduced by approximately 6 months for every SoC [9°F] above the
highest storage temperature listed above.
Long term storage in a vehicle (in excess of 6 months) is not recommended. If long term storage is necessary,
periodic testing of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid is recommended to be performed to ensure the concentration does not fall
out of specification. Follow the Test step of this procedure.
NOTE: To assist in preventing Diesel Exhaust Fluid from deteriorating when stored in the vehicles DEF tank, locate
and plug the tanks venting to seal the tank exposure to the atmosphere.
Handling
Diesel Exhaust Fluid is not harmful to handle, but can be corrosive to certain materials over time. Such as carbon
steels, iron, zinc, nickel, copper, aluminum and magnesium.
- Make sure to only use approved containers to transport and store Diesel Exhaust Fluid. Containers made of
polyethylene and polypropylene are recommended.
- If Diesel Exhaust Fluid is spilled, rinse and clean immediately with water.
- Avoid prolonged contact with skin. In case of contact, wash with immediately with soap and water. If not washed
immediately, when the diesel exhaust fluid dries, a white film will be left that can be more difficult to wash off.
NOTE: Spilled Diesel Exhaust Fluid if left to dry or wiped away with a cloth only will leave a white residue. Failure to
clean the spilled Diesel Exhaust Fluid may result in an incorrectly diagnosed leak of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid Dosing
system.
Before using containers, funnels, etc. that will be used to dispense, handle or store Diesel Exhaust Fluid, make sure to
wash thoroughly to remove any contaminants and then rinse with distilled water.
NOTE: Do not use tap water to rinse components that will be used to deliver diesel exhaust fluid. Tap water will
contaminate the Diesel Exhaust Fluid. If distilled water is not available, rinse with tap water and then rinse with Diesel
Exhaust Fluid.
Disposal
If disposing of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), always check with the local authority regulations on proper disposing
process and requirements.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid Recommendations and Specifications [ ...] ISX15 CM2350 X101
PageV-12 Section V - Maintenance Specifications
Test
Having the correct concentration of Diesel Exhaust Fluid
is critical to the engine and aftertreatment system
performing correctly.
To test the concentration of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid, use
the Cummins Diesel Exhaust Fluid Refractometer, service
tool part number 4919554. Follow the instructions
provided with the service tool.
@ Cmnmins Inc.
Percent Urea Concentration: 32.5 +/- 1.5%
The specification listed above takes into consideration the
refractometer tool tolerances, varibility, and calibration
when measuring Diesel Exhaust Fluid concentration.
If the Diesel Exhaust Fluid concentration is found to be
outside of this specification, drain the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
tank, flush with distilled water and fill with new and/or
known good Diesel Exhaust Fluid. Recheck the DieSel
Exhaust Fluid concentration.
Concentration of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid should be
checked when:
- The vehicle has been stored for an extended period of
time.
- It is suspected that water has been added to the
Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank
Contamination/Incorrect Fluid
ACAUTIONA
Never add water or any other fluid besides what is specified to the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank. The
aftertreatment system may be damaged.
In the event that the incorrect fluid is added to the Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank, such as, but not limited to:
- Water
- Diesel Fuel
- Hydraulic Fluid
- Coolant
- Windshield Washer Fluid
Contact a local Cummins Authorized Repair location to determine the appropriate repair direction.
If only water has been added to the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank, drain the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank, flush
with distilled water and refill with new and/or known good Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DE F). Check the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
(DEF) concentration after completing the refill, follow to the Test step of this procedure.
Freezing
ACAUTIONA
Do NOT add any chemicals/additives to the Diesel Exhaust Fluid in an effort to prevent freezing. If chemicals/
additives are added to the Diesel Exhaust Fluid, the aftertreatment system may be damaged.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid will freeze around -11°C [12°F]. The diesel exhaust fluid system on the vehicle is designed to
accommodate this and does not require any intervention by the vehicle operator.
The Operating the Engine (101-015) procedure in Section 1 of the Owners and Operation and Maintenance Manual
will provide information on proper cold weather set up for your engine/vehicle.

Section V - Maintenance Specifications Page V-13
£WARNING£
Do not bleed the fuel system of a hot engine; this can result in fuel spilling onto a hot exhaust manifold, which
can cause a fire.
ACAUTIONA
Due to the precise tolerances of diesel injection systems, it is extremely important that the fuel be kept clean
and free of dirt or water. Dirt or water in the system can cause severe damage to both the fuel pump and the
fuel injectors.
ACAUTIONA
Do not use diesel fuel blended with lubricating oil in engines equipped with an aftertreatment device. Service
intervals for aftertreatment devices will be reduced.
Fuel Cleanliness
This section explains the importance of fuel cleanliness to the successful operation of Cummins® Engines.
Modern fuel systems have been developed to improve combustion performance and fuel consumption, and improve
engine performance. These high-pressure fuel systems operate at pressures approaching 2600 bar [37,700 psi], and
with component match clearances typically from 2- to 5-microns for injectors. At these pressures, very small, hard
particles are potential sources of a fuel system malfunction.
Excessive contamination of diesel fuel can cause premature clogging of diesel fuel filters and/or premature wear of
critical fuel injection system parts. Depending on the size and nature of the particles, this can lead to:
• reduced component life
• component malfunction
• fuel system and/or engine malfunction.
ISX15 CM2350 X101 Fuel Recommendations and Specifications
Section V - Maintenance Specifications Page V-15
Determining fuel cleanliness requires measuring both the size and number of particles per size class in the fuel, i.e.
the particle size distribution. The International Standards Organization (ISO) has developed a protocol for expressing
the level of contamination by coding the size distribution called ISO 4406. ISO 4406 cleanliness codes are expressed
as a series of three numbers (xlxlx), which correspond respectively to the number of particles greater than 4-, 6-, and
14-microns. For example, the numbers in the ISO 4406 rating of 18/16/13 translate to:
• 18 - Up to 2500 particles larger than 4~m (per mL of fuel)
• 16 - Up to 640 particles larger than 6~m (per mL of fuel)
• 13 - Up to 80 particles larger than 14~m (per mL of fuel).

Engine builders and fuel injection equipment manufacturers have found that the particles greater than 4-microns and
greater than 6-micronsare particularly critical to the durability of the fuel injection system. They also recognize that the
fuel systems must tolerate hard particles smaller than 4-microns that are difficult to filter out, even with the finest
filtration. To maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of filtration, Cummins Inc. has adopted the recommendation of
the World Wide Fuel Charter that fuel supplied to engines(1) meet the ISO 4406 code of 18/16/13 maximum for
respectively 4-,6-, and 14-micron particle sizes.
Cummins Inc. recommends that if the fuel does not meet the ISO cleanliness code of 18/16/13 when supplied to the
engine(1), additional filtration be applied before the fuel is delivered to the equipment's fuel tank. A Cummins®
Distributor or Cummins Filtration 1M representative can supply hardware and additional filtration guidance and can
recommend countermeasures such as improved fuel quality from the fuel supplier, andlor better fuel handling,
storage, dispensing, and fuel tank cleaning techniques.
1 Fuel quality must be assessed at the inlet to the suction side fuel filter.
