5. rouTine mainTenanCe
This section is designed primarily
for use by trained technicians but it
does contain sufficient information,
illustrations and detail to allow the
operator to perform basic maintenance
work. The recommendations and
instructions cover several engine
models, therefore they are of a general
nature.
WarninG
routine maintenance must be
performed by trained personnel who
are conversant with the hazards of
oil, fuel, electricity and machinery.
Work can be carried out only if you have
had suitable training and experience,
and if the necessary hand and service
tools are available. Do not attempt to
carry out adjustments, maintenance or
repairs if you have insufficient tools,
experience or ability.
Where accurate measurements
or torque values are required they
can only be made using calibrated
instruments.
CauTion
never use makeshift tools or
equipment. It is dangerous and
could damage your engine.
The engine may include optional
equipment not specifically covered
in this book. In this case, refer to the
manufacturer's instructions.
5.1 iniTial aTTenTion
To assist engine running-in, all engines
are despatched with an initial-fill
lubricating oil which must be changed
after the engine has completed 100
running hours.
After the engine has run 25 hours, and
again after it has run 250 hours, you
should attend to the following:
• Check the valve clearances, and
adjust if necessary.
• Check and tighten nuts, bolts and
unions paying particular attention to the
fuel system.
• Check the lubricating oil level and
top up if necessary.
• Observe the exhaust at the normal
full load. It must be free from soot. A
black exhaust means that the engine
is overloaded or that the injection
equipment is out of order.
Following this initial attention, the
normal routine maintenance must be
carried out as given in
5.3 Maintenance
Schedule .
CauTion
do not allow the engine to run with
a dirty exhaust without investigating
the cause as this may result in an
engine breakdown.
5.2 General insTruCTions
The frequency with which maintenance
work should be carried out is given in
Section 5.3 below. Detailed instructions
on how to service your engine are
given in the remaining sections of this
chapter.
