General
This section has the description and repair instruc-
tions for the VK model of the Series 1100 Perkins
diesel engine. All VK models are six-cylinder, tur-
bocharged.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING
Some seals used in this engine are made of
synthetic materials called fluoroelastomers
(a commercial name is Viton).
These fluo-
roelastomers can decompose at temperatures
greater than 316 C (600
F)
or by burning and
cause hydrofluoric acid to form on the surface
of the seal or nearby equipment.
Do not touch gaskets, seals, or O-rings which
appear charred or black and sticky after ex-
posure to temperatures greater than 316 C
(600
F)
or burning. Contact with this acid can
cause severe burns of the skin and eyes. Burns
can be delayed several hours after contact.
Do the following procedures to prevent expo-
sure to hydrofluoric acid:
• Wear disposable neoprene or PVC gloves and
discard the gloves after use.
• Wash the area with 10 percent calcium hy-
droxide solution to neutralize any acid and
then clean with water.
If burned seal by-product touches the skin or
eyes:
• Immediately flush with water for a minimum
of 15 minutes.
• Apply 2.5 percent calcium gluconate gel to af-
fected area of skin.
• Get medical help immediately for suspected
hydrogen fluoride or hydrofluoric acid burn.
WARNING
Disconnect the battery cables before doing any
disassembly and repair of the engine or parts of
the electrical system. Put a DO NOT OPERATE
tag in the operator’s area and on the battery
connectors.
Long-term exposure to used engine oil can
cause skin irritation or cancer.
Wash with
detergent and water.
Exhaust from internal combustion engines
contains carbon monoxide and other harmful
chemicals.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless,
odorless poison and can cause unconscious-
ness or death without warning.
Long-term
exposure to exhaust or chemicals in the ex-
haust can cause cancer, birth defects, and
other reproductive harm. Avoid exposure to
engine exhaust.
Do not use diesel engines indoors where soot
can accumulate.
If engines are operated in confined spaces,
maintain adequate ventilation or vent exhaust
to the outside. Do not exceed applicable air
contaminant limits.
Follow the inspection and maintenance sched-
ule and procedures in this manual. Do not alter
exhaust, ignition, or fuel systems.
CAUTION
Disposal of lubricants and fluids must meet lo-
cal environmental regulations.
Disposal of batteries must meet local environ-
mental regulations.
The diodes and resistors in the electrical sys-
tem can be damaged if the following cautions
are not followed:
• Do not disconnect the battery when the en-
gine is running. The voltage surge can dam-
age the diodes and resistors.
• Do not disconnect an electric wire before the
engine is stopped and the switches are OFF.
• Do not cause a short circuit by connection
of the electric wires to the wrong terminals.
Make sure a correct identification is made of
the wire before it is connected.
• Verify the battery is the correct voltage and
polarity before it is connected.
• Do not check for current flow by making a
spark because the electronic components can
be damaged.
