That depends entirely on which oil you're talking about. Engine? Hydraulic? Differential?For engine oil, we just use 15W-40, and this is in Colorado, with a broad range of temperatures. Gear oil, we just use 75W-90. Hydraulic oil... need to know what kind of conditions you're working in.
Use what the manufacture suggests. Consult the owners manual for the correct oil for the engine.
Caterpillar forklifts typically use SAE 10W-30 or SAE 15W-40 engine oil, depending on the engine type and operating conditions. For hydraulic systems, CAT hydraulic oil or compatible hydraulic fluids are recommended. Always consult the specific operator’s manual for the model to ensure the correct type and grade of oil is used for optimal performance and longevity.
The engine dipstick is the only tool you can use to measure how much oil is in the engine.
