Scheduled Intervals
All service intervals and maintenance operations are based on the parts and accessories expressly approved for your engine.
The scope and frequency of maintenance work are determined by the engine's operating conditions: severe duty, short haul, long haul or operating hours vs. fuel consumption (oil drain interval only).
Evidence of regular maintenance is essential if a warranty claim has to be submitted.
If optional equipment is installed, be sure to comply with the maintenance requirements for these extra items.
Important: If the engine is stored for more than 18 months, the oil must be changed before the engine can be brought into service.
Maintenance Schedule Types
There are five types of maintenance schedule:
- Schedule I (Severe Service)
- Schedule II (Short Haul)
- Schedule III (Long Haul)
- Operating Hours vs. Fuel Consumption (Oil Drain Interval Only)
To determine which schedule to use, find the distance traveled by the vehicle in a year, regardless of vehicle type.
Severe Service
Applies to vehicles that annually travel up to 100,000 kilometers (60,000 miles) or that operate under severe conditions. Examples of Severe Service usage include: operation on extremely poor roads or where there is heavy dust accumulation; constant exposure to extreme hot, cold, salt-air, or other extreme climates; frequent short-distance travel; construction-site operation; city operation (fire truck, garbage truck); or farm operation.
Short-Haul
Applies to vehicles that annually travel up to 100,000 kilometers (60,000 miles) and operate under normal conditions. Examples of Short-Haul usage are: operation primarily in cities and densely populated areas; local transport with infrequent freeway travel; or high percentage of stop-and-go travel.
Long-Haul
Long Haul (over-the-road transport) is for vehicles that annually travel more than 100,000 kilometers (60,000 miles), with minimal city or stop-and-go operation. Examples of Long-Haul usage are: regional delivery that is mostly freeway miles; interstate transport; or any road operation with high annual mileage.
Operating Hours vs. Fuel Consumption (Oil Drain Interval Only)
Operating hours vs. fuel consumption is for operators who want an oil drain interval based on hours of operation instead of miles traveled.
Maintenance Schedule and Interval Operations
The three different schedules of vehicle usage (severe, short haul, and long haul) are listed. MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4). For each schedule, the appropriate distance interval (in miles and kilometers) is given for performing and repeating each maintenance operation.
The descriptions of all maintenance operations, indicating all maintenance operation sets at which each operation must be performed are listed;MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)
Maintenance Intervals
The three maintenance interval tables show which maintenance operation must be performed at the actual distances (in miles or kilometers) for each maintenance operation (M1-M3). The schedule of actual distances is based on the intervals listed, MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4).
The maintenance interval tables are:
- Maintenance Interval Table, Severe Service, MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)
- Maintenance Interval Table, Short Haul, MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)
- Maintenance Interval Table, Long Haul, MBE 900 EuroV Preventive Maintenance Tables - 93K222(CK-4) and 93K218(CJ-4)
