Other than refueling, the only regular action you will need to perform is refilling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank periodically. All of Cummins Tier 4 Final engines with >751 hp require Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) for their aftertreatment exhaust systems and have DEF Lamps and Gauges that indicate when the DEF tank needs to be filled.

Amber Warning Lamp
Illuminates when DEF level is critically low. Engine power has been significantly reduced. Operator should refill the DEF tank with DEF immediately.
