I.2. Farymann Diesel engine
All Farymann Diesel engines are 4 stroke, direct injection diesel engines. They are built as single
cylinder engines in vertical and horizontal cylinder configuration.The direct injection guarantees an
outstanding efficiency with low fuel consumption and excellent cold starting abilities. Robert Bosch fuel
injection equipments are used on all engines. A high precision centrifugal governor totally enclosed in
the crankcase links to the fuel injector pump and to the speed contol lever.
The flywheel fan cools the engine, eliminating troublesome V-belts. Air is drawn into the flywheel fan and
routed through shouding to the cooling fins of the cylinder head.
I.3. Engine identification
Until July 1982 the engine nomination system consisted of a 10 figure code.
For example:
35K54 0715 F
35 = code figure for the year of manufacture
K54 = engine type
0715 = serial number
F
= code figure for month of manufacture
Effective July 1982 the new system consists of a 12 figure code system in addition to the serial
number (see engine name plate).
For example:
15D430 0118 D5
860320 = manufacturing date
15 D 430 0118 D5
Trim-no. = engine speed and governor
Type-no. = engine specification
Starting 0 = manual crank start
system 1 = recoil starter
5 = electric starter
6 = manual crank start with alternator
7 = alternator with starter
Bearing 3 = roller bearing at flywheel side
Crankshaft 4 = horizontal crankshaft
Basic A = vertical cylinder configuration anti
Engine clockwise rotation
(former execution)
Design B = vertical cylinder configuration

D = vertical cylinder configuration
anti-clockwise rotation
E = horizontal cylinder configuration
