In view of the continued development of our diesel engines, the present instruction
book has been made to apply generally to our engines of the types:
50 – 108 MC/MC-C
The different systems are explained on the basis of standard systems, whereas each par-
ticular engine is built to the specification in the contract for the plant in question, i.e. the
information in this book is for guidance purposes only.
All references to this instruction book should include title, edition No., and possibly page
No.
Example: Instruction book OPERATION, Edition 0002, Section 701-02, Page 3(12).
For a specific engine, also the name of the vessel, the engine number and the engine build-
er should be specified.
This book is subject to copyright protection. The book should therefore not, in whole or in
part, be copied, reproduced, made public, or in any other way made available to any third
party, without the written consent to this effect from MAN B&W Diesel A/S.
Contents
This instruction book is divided into nine Chapters and an Index – as listed below:
Chapter Title
710 Index
Each Chapter is subdivided into separate sections and sub-sections. For convenience, the
main titles and topics are summarized on the first page(s) of each chapter.
Service Letters
In order to ensure the most efficient, economic, and up-to-date operation of the MAN B&W
engines, we, and our licensees, regularly send out ‘Service Letters’, containing first-hand
information regarding accumulated service experience.
The Service Letters can either deal with specific engine types, or contain general instruc-
tions and recommendations for all engine types, and are used as a reference when we pre-
pare up-dated instruction book editions.
Therefore, since new Service Letters could be of great importance to the operation of the
plant, we recommend that the engine staff file them to supplement the relevant chapters of
this instruction book.
