[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7129710, member: 718"] The engine must be, I'm guessing, derated to between 250 and 300hp at around 1400rpm? Probably the familiar [to agriculture] C8.3 litre engine variant. At a guess it'll use about 35 litres per hour maximum at ¾ load or so [worked out from what my smaller but harder working Massey uses at full chat]. Assuming 24 hour running, probably sometimes at a quarter to half load, will it use 750 litres of fuel daily? What's the service interval? Does it use depth filtration and ultra long drain oil for 1000 to 1500+ hour service intervals? It certainly doesn't sound as if it is fitted with on-board oil condition monitoring equipment with variable service intervals. [/QUOTE]
