How to care for your engine
Warning! Read the “Safety precautions” and remember them. They are given for your protection and must be
applied at all times.
Caution: Do not clean an engine while it runs. If cold cleaning fluids are applied to a hot engine, certain
components on the engine may be damaged.
This handbook has been written to assist you to maintain and operate your engine correctly.
To obtain the best performance and the longest life from your engine, you must ensure that the maintenance
operations are done at the intervals indicated in “Preventative maintenance”. If the engine works in a very
dusty environment or other adverse conditions, certain maintenance intervals will have to be reduced. Renew
the filter canister and lubricating oil regularly in order to ensure that the inside of your engine remains clean.
Ensure that all adjustments and repairs are done by personnel who have had the correct training. Perkins
distributors have this type of personnel available. You can also obtain parts and service from your Perkins
distributor. If you do not know the address of your nearest distributor, enquire at www.perkins.com/Marine.
The “left side” and “right side” of the engine apply when the engine is seen from the reverse gearbox end.
