Introduction
This instruction book has been prepared to give you the greatest possible benefit from your Volvo Penta indus-
trial engine. It contains the information you need to be able to operate and maintain the engine safely and cor-
rectly. Please read the instruction book carefully and learn to handle the engine, controls and other equipment in
a safe manner before you start the engine.
Environmental responsibility
All of us want to live in a clean, healthy environment,
where we can breathe clean air, see healthy trees,
have clean water in lakes and seas, and be able to
enjoy the sunlight without fearing for our health. Un-
fortunately, this is not self-evident these days, it is
something all of us must work for.
As an engine manufacturer, Volvo Penta has particu-
lar responsibility and for this reason, environmental
care is a self-evident foundation of our product de-
velopment. Volvo Penta has a wide engine program
these days, where considerable progress has been
made in reducing exhaust fumes, fuel consumption,
engine noise etc.
We hope that you will be want to preserve these
values. Always observe the advice in the instruction
book about fuel grades, operation and maintenance,
to avoid unnecessary environmental impact. Please
contact your Volvo Penta dealer if you notice any
changes such as increased fuel consumption or in-
creased exhaust smoke.
Please remember to always hand in hazardous waste
such as drained oil, coolant, old batteries etc. for de-
struction at an approved recycling facility.
If we all pull together, we can make a valuable contri-
bution to the environment together.
Running in
The engine must be “run in” during its first 10
hours, as follows:
Use the engine in normal operation. Full load should
only be applied for short periods. Never run the en-
gine for a long period of time at constant speed dur-
ing this period.
Higher oil consumption is normal during the first 100-
200 hours of operation. For this reason, check the oil
level more frequently than normally recommended.
When an opening clutch is installed, this should be
checked more carefully during the first days. Adjust-
ment may need to be done to compensate bedding in
of the friction plates.
Fuel and oils
Only use the fuels and oils recommended in the
instruction book (please refer to the “Maintenance”
chapter under the fuel and lubrication system head-
ings). Other grades of fuel and oils can cause mal-
functions, increased fuel consumption and eventually
even shorten the life of the engine.
Always change the oil, oil filter and fuel filter at the
specified intervals.
Maintenance and spare parts
Volvo Penta engines are designed for maximum
reliability and long life. They are built to withstand a
demanding environment, but also to have the small-
est possible environmental impact. Through regular
service and use of Volvo Penta original spare parts,
these qualities are retained.
Volvo Penta has a world-wide network of authorized
dealers. They are Volvo Penta product specialists,
and have the accessories, original spares, test equip-
ment and special tools needed for high quality ser-
vice and repair work.
Always observe the maintenance intervals in
the instruction book, and remember to note the
engine/transmission identification number when
you order service and spare parts.
IMPORTANT! This instruction book describes the engine and equipment sold by Volvo Penta. Variations
in appearance and function of the controls and instruments may occur in certain variants. In these cases,
please refer to the instruction book for the relevant application.
