Kawasaki has added 20W-50 grade oil to the viscosity table below. The viscosity table information in the manuals has also changed to match the table below.
Although 10W-40 engine oil is the recommended oil for most conditions, the oil viscosity may need to be changed to accommodate seasonal temperature changes. Using 20W-50 oil in higher ambient temperatures may reduce oil consumption.
Changes to the oil viscosity table will be included in the updated service and owners manuals for the FR/ FS/FX and the FH-D series engines however no change will be made to the manuals for the FH-V series engines.
