Vibration Dampers , Viscous Vibration Dampers-inspection Caution: The silicone fluid in the damper will become solid after extended service and will make the damper inoperative. An inoperative damper can cause major en- gine or driveline failures. Vibration dampers have a limited service life. The damper must be replaced after 576,000 km [360,000 miles} or 18,000 hours of service. NOTE: Do not repair or balance a'viscous damper in the field. Check the damper for evidence of fluid toss, dents, and wobble. Visually inspect the vibration damper thickness for any deformation or raising of the damper front cover plate. Many variations or deformations are detected, refer to the Troubleshooting and Repair Manual for inspection procedures. Rubber Vibration Dampers-Inspection NOTE: Vibration dampers have a limited service life. The damper must be replaced after $76,000 km, [360,000 miles}, or 18,000 hours of service. Inspect the rubber member for deterioration. If pieces of tubber are missing or If the elastic member is more than 3 mm [1/8 inch} below the metal surface, replace the damper.

NTINTABSS: Lubricating Oil Recommendations/Specifications The use of high quality engine lubricating oils combined with appropriate oil drain and filter change intervals is a ctitical factor in maintaining engine performance and obtaining maximum engine life. Cummins Engine Company, Inc. strongly recommends the use of a high quality SAE 1SW-40 heavy duty engine oil (guch as Cummins Premium Blue) which meets the American Petroleum Institute (API) performance classifi cation CE or CF-4. NOTE: CD or CD/SF engine oils can be used in areas where CE and GF-4 oil is not yet available. sulfated ash content of 1.0 mass percent will yield optimal control of valve and piston deposit and will minimize ‘oil consumption. The sulfated ash must not exceed 1.85 percent mass.

The oil supplier must be responsible for meeting the performance service specifications. Caution: The use of a synthetic base oil does not justify extended oil change intervals. Extended oil change intervals can decrease engine life, due to factors such as corrosion, deposits, and wear. | New Engine Break-In Oils Special “break-in’”engine lubricating oils are not recommended for new or rebuilt Cummins engines. Use the same. type oil during the “break-in” as that which is used in normal operation. Caution: A sulfated ash limit of 1.85 percent has been placed on all engine lubricating oils recommended for use in Cummins engines. High ash oils can cause valve and/or piston damage and lead to excessive oil consumption. | Agjonal information regarding lubricating oil availability throughout the world is available in the E.M.A, Lubri- cat..g Oils Data Book for Heavy Duly Automotive and industrial Engines, The data book can be ordered from the | Engine Manufacturers Association, One Illinois Center, 111 Eaét Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL U.S.A. 60601, The telephone number is: (312) 644-6610.

A 50/50 mix. ture of antifreeze and water gives a-34°F freeze point and ‘a boiling point of 228°F, which is adequate for locations in North America. The actual lowest freeze point of ethylene glycol antifreeze is at 68%. Using higher ~gn- centrations of antifreeze will raise the freeze point . ne solution and increase the possibility of a silicate gel problem. A refractometer must be used to accurately measure the freeze point of the coolant. CUMMINS NT/NTA855 BIG CAM III OPR & MAINT MANUAL‘Section-V - Specifications and Torque Values.
