Table 1: Oil and filter change intervals for Ecomat transmissions in buses:
Lubricant class
(See overleaf for approved trade products) Oil and filter change interval [km/year] (5)
30.000 km
14A
1 x year
60.000 km
14B
1 x every 2 years
120.000 km
14C
1 x every 2 years
150.000 km
14E
1 x every 3 years
Note:
In case of initial oil change transition from an ATF of the lubricants category 14A or 14B to an ATF featuring extended oil
change intervals, an interim oil change interval after < 60.000 km/max. 2 years is required.

Footnotes
(1) Automatic powershift transmissions, type EcoLife, also refer to List of lubricants TE-ML 20.
(2) The fully synthetic ATF ZF-Ecofluid A Life was specially developed for use in automatic powershift transmissions installed in
CVs. The combination of synthetic basic oil on the basis of polyalphaolefin and a specially well balanced package of
additives ensures excellent oxidation stability, a very constant friction coefficient, and high-quality protection of all
transmission components. As a result of the flat viscosity characteristic curve, the oil is suited for applications in all climate
zones, particularly in hot and cold regions.
(3) Transmissions with oil sump temperatures below 100C.
(4) Ecomat 2 plus- and Ecomat 4- transmissions with oil sump temperatures above 100C may only be operated with fluids from
the 14E lubricants category. Always use fluids according to 14E in borderline cases or in the case of uncertainty with
reference to transmission operation temperature.
(5) Oil and filter change required, depending on what occurs first. Use only ZF original filter elements, ZF order no.
4139 298 936.
(6) Oil and filter change required, depending on what occurs first. Use only ZF original filter elements, ZF order no.
4139 298 936. The operating instructions apply in the case of deviating information.
(7) Standard application: Fire fighting vehicles, construction machinery, and dumpers with high mileage share.
(8) Extreme applications: Refuse collection vehicles, vehicles featuring high share of off-road use (low mileage share, high level
of shift efforts).
(9) For military applications, the service intervals apply according to document 4237.700.014. Please contact your respectively
responsible ZF-Services employee.
Comments
Additives of any kind added later to the oil change the oil in a manner that is unpredictable, and they are therefore not permitted.
No liability of any kind will be accepted by ZF for any damage resulting from the use of such additives.
