Cat 785 service
What each system holds and when Cat says to change it, with genuine filters and oils. The oil grade for your build is in its operator's manual.

- Engine oil, with filter
- 204 L
Fluid: Cat DEO-ULS SAE 15W-40 (rated -10 to 50 °C) (Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations SEBU6250-30 (Dec 2020))
The engine runs near full load for most of every cycle; in Gulf heat the oil works harder, so take an S·O·S sample at every change and keep to the hours.
Confirm fluid grades in your machine's operator's manual: they vary by build year and climate.
