1.2) General Instructions


Before dismantling, it is necessary that the external part of the engine should be
thoroughly cleaned with pressurised water. Before cleaning the engine with pressurised
water ensure that all points of entry to the engine are closed so that water does not enter
the engine.
Cleaned and useable components must be properly stored in trays / containers to avoid
damage. Components likely to get rusted due to the weather must be treated with
recommended anti-rust oils, or even fresh engine oil. Machined and polished component
surfaces should be protected from scratching and damage by proper storage.

Use correct size standard and special tools. An adequate capacity lifting device should be
used to prevent accidents, injuries as well as damage to the engine.

For satisfactory results, the dismantling and assembly of the engine should be done in a
well lit, clean room.

Dismantling and assembly is convenient and quick if carried out on a DV service trolley.

The DV series engine may need top overhaul after about 10,000 hours and a major
overhaul after about 20,000 hours provided the engine is properly maintained as per the
instructions specified in the O&M manual.

cooled, four stroke diesel engines with direct injection, available in turbocharged after
cooled version, suitable for power generation, industrial, marine auxiliary applications.

The standard direction of rotation is counter clockwise when looking at the flywheel from
the flywheel-end side. The engine's cylinders are numbered in ascending order from the
flywheel-end side with cylinder No.1 being nearest to the flywheel.

The engine cylinder block is a single piece of alloy cast iron. To increase its stiffness, it is
extended to a level below the crankshaft center line. The cylinder liners are wet and of
replaceable type. The engine has a unit construction design with individual cylinder liners
and heads with struck-in valve seat rings and replaceable valve guides.

The forged crankshaft has detachable counterweights (Balance weights) Radial oil seal is
on crankshaft at crank pulley and at flywheel end, oil seal is on crank gear.

The connecting rods are die-forged, diagonally split and can be removed through the top
of the cylinders together with the pistons. Crankshaft and connecting rods run in steel-
backed lead bronze ready to fit type bearings.

1.6) Tightening High Tensile Fasteners
The purpose of every tightening is to obtain as uniform load as possible on the fasteners
which are tightened by pre-loading.

The high tensile fasteners are tightened by two methods. Some of the fasteners are
tightened in one or two stages. The initial tightening is known as pre-loading.

What is pre-loading ?
Pre-loading is the elongation of bolt or fastener under tensile stress.

Why pre-load?
To ensure a rigid and long lasting connection of two or more different parts(which cannot
be loosened) under operating conditions.

Reasons to pre-load fasteners


 Under tensile stress, a pre-stressed fastener will elongate less under stress thus
increasing the rigidity of the assembly.
 The risk of fatigue failure of the bolt under periodical variation of external forces
is reduced.
 Compression forces will not slacken the force.
 Frictional resistance of joint parts caused by pre-loading of bolts carries external
shearing force.
 No danger of loosening of connections under external loads and vibrations

Tightening High Tensile Fasteners by Torque Wrench

This is the most conventional method used wherein a torque wrench is used. Here the
wedge effect of the threads is used to produce the elongation of the bolt. The resulting
stress pattern in the bolt is both axial and torsional. Due to friction, occurring in the
threads and the mating surfaces; only a fraction of the applied effort results in bolt
elongation.

This method of preloading is not very accurate as many factors can offset the accuracy
The factors involved are:-
1 The torque wrench, which can have an error up to 7% or more depending on its
condition.
2 The proper cleaning and lubrication of threaded portion of the fastener as well as the
threads inside the component is very essential. Also the friction increases as the bolt
diameter increases. This is due to the increase in cross-sectional area coming in contact
with the threads.
3 The surface finish of the component and the fastener play a crucial part in increasing
the friction.

1.12) Recommended Procedure for Engine Preservation

SCOPE :

Following preservation procedure is recommended for both water cooled and air cooled engines
to be supplied overseas and also when the engines are to be kept idle (out of use) for prolonged
period (more than 12 months).

1) Using H.S.D. fuel, run the engine at approx. 70% of max. rated speed with no load for
approx. 5 minutes to warm up the engine (In case of 'fixed speed' engines like engine for
Genset, it can be run at rated speed).

2) After stopping the engine, drain lub.oil from sump and refill with suitable preservative oil
(Ref. Annexture I).

3) Run the engine on no load for 3 minutes (for engine speed ref. Point 1). During this time the
preservative will be circulated throughout the lub.oil system of engine. Stop the engine and
disconnect diesel fuel supply to fuel pump inlet.

4) Prepare a solution of Diesel + Preservative oil (5:1 ratio) in a separate tank, and connect fuel
line from tank, directly to fuel pump inlet ensuring gravity feed (by-pass fuel filter).

5) FOR WATER COOLED ENGINES WITH CLOSE CIRCUIT COOLING


SYSTEM
Drain coolant from cooling system and thoroughly flush with clean water. The system then
should be filled with mixture of water and any of the cooling system preservatives mentioned
in Annexure I.

6) Electrically crank the engine till it fires (In case of purely Hand Start engines, hand crank the
engine using decompressor lever, till it fires) and let it run for 30 seconds (during this time
the diesel in fuel pump gallery and high pressure pipes will be displaced by Diesel +
Preservative oil mixture) stop the engine.

Engine speed during above running:


- In case of variable speed engines, the engine should be run approximately at 800 to 1000 rpm.
- In case of fixed speed engines, i.e. for Genset, Pump set etc., the engine should run at no load
and rated speed.

7) Close the Air Inlet Manifold (or the Air cleaner inlet) and crank the engine by starter for 5 to
10 seconds (In case of only hand start engines, it should be hand cranked using the
25
decompressor for 5 to 10 seconds). This will ensure coating of Diesel + Preservative oil on
the combustion chamber surfaces.

8) Drain preservative oil from oil sump, reinstall drain plugs and reconnect fuel filter into the
fuel pipeline.

9) FOR WATER COOLED ENGINE WITH CLOSE CIRCUIT COOLING SYSTEM


Drain emulsion of water and preservative from cooling system.

10) Treat all unpainted external ferrous metal parts with two coats of suitable rust preventor (Ref.
Annexure I attached), allowing sufficient time for the first coat to thoroughly dry before
applying second coat.

11) All vents i.e. engine inlet pipe, exhaust pipe, air cleaner inlet, coolant inlet/outlet, crankcase
breather etc., to be carefully sealed with waterproof paper and waterproof adhesive tape.

12) Dipstick on engine to be sealed in place, with waterproof adhesive tape.

13) IMPORTANT "DO NOT ROTATE CRANKSHAFT AFTER ABOVE MENTIONED


OPERATIONS".

14) Loosen 'V' Belt tension.

15) Battery for engine starting, if provided, should disconnected and stored in a cool, dry place
after ensuring the electrolyte level (Refill with distilled water if necessary).
It is recommended to recharge the battery every 30 days.

16) Tag engine to indicate that it has been treated with preservatives, and should not be turned
over until ready to run, due to possible reduction of protective film. The tag should show the
date of treatment and validity date.

17) With above preservation procedure, the engine can safely be stored for a period of 12 months
maximum. It is preferable to wrap the engine in polyethylene bag and store in dry shade. If
the engine is to be stored unused for more than 12 months, the preservation procedure
mentioned above should be repeated every 12 months.

18) Periodically inspect the engine for rust or corrosion and take corrective action if any.

Commissioning of 'Preserved' Engine

1. Remove all the sealing tapes/papers from various openings.

2. Remove the rust preventive coating from those unpainted-machined surfaces, which are
interfacing surfaces for the driven equipment. This can be done by using NC Thinner.

3. Fill recommended grade of lub.oil in the oil sump upto the 'top' mark of the dipstick. Add 0.5
lit further for lub.oil filter.

4. In case of water-cooled engines, fill the cooling system with fresh water.

It is recommended to use Anticorrosion/Descaling additive in the fresh water.

26
The recommended additives are -
- Aquat 720 (2 cc per litre)
- Nalcool 2000 (35 cc per litre)

In case of low ambient temperatures (below +5oC) it is necessary to add antifreeze mixture to the
fresh water in 1:1 proportion.

5) Readjust the V belt tension after checking the condition of V belts(s). Replace the V belt(s) if
necessary.

6) Reconnect a fully charged battery of recommended voltage and Amp hr capacity ensuring
correct polarity connection (where applicable).
The engine is now ready for reuse.

 Record and check the values with Specifications, Section 1, 8.11. Record on a chart as shown
in the manual.
 If required, check old bearing inside diameter after refitting bearings dry in their respective
bores and caps in the main bore Refer to Specifications, Section 1, 8.12. Tighten main
bearing cap bolts with washers to the prescribed torque. Refer to Tightening Torque table in
Section 1, 1.7
 During tightening, take care that :
a. Oil is applied to bolt threads and head bottom surface.
b. Initial torque, stage 1 and stage 2 torque is applied with a torque wrench.
 Inspect the liner collar cavity in the crankcase.
 Check the internal diameter of the cam bushes with a dial bore gauge. Record and compare
values with the specification. Refer to Specifications, Section 1, 1.8, 7.2. If the values are
beyond the limit, replace the cam bushes. Fig.

2
 After bushes are removed, inspect the
internal diameter of all cam bush bores
with a dial bore gauge at two planes and at
a right angle. Refer to Specifications,
Section 1,1.8, 7.1. If any of the cam bores
are damaged, recondition the damaged
bore (with KOEL's guidance) or replace
the crankcase. Fig.

 Clean the water passages in the


crankcase.
 Inspect the liner collar resting face
bore in the crankcase .
 Check the condition of the liner bore
where the liner joint rings sit. If deep
grooves are noticed, recondition or
replace the crankcase.
Thrust Washers
 KOEL recommends replacing the thrust washers during a major overhaul.
 Fit the old thrust rings onto the
crankcase and cap. Measure total
thickness with micrometer W1. Fig.
Measure the distance (W) between
the thrust faces of the thrust journal
of the crank shaft. Refer to point 4.4.

 Calculate clearance and check the


corresponding specification. Refer to
Specifications, Section 1, 1.8, 8.10
and 8.13. If the calculated clearance
exceeds the specified limit, then
carry out the above exercise with a
new set of standard thrust rings, and
also check the crankshaft end-play.

4.2 ) Checking Main Bearing Shell Internal Diameter


 Main bearings are available in two halves, in a finished condition.
 These are available in 6 under-sizes, in steps of 0.25 mm.
 As these are thin-walled, trimetal bearings, they have to be pre-loaded in the main
bearing bore.
 While fitting the bearing, do not touch, rub or polish the bearing-lining surface.
 Bearings should be cleaned only
with clean diesel, dabbed dried with
a soft cloth, and then fitted.

3
 While fitting the bearing, ensure an
adequately free spread. Do not install
bearings with negative free spread as
this will lead to premature bearing
failure.
 Fit bearing caps and torque the bolts. Refer to Tightening Torque table in Section 1, 1.7.
 Set the dial gauge to the correct size (standard or under-size) with a micrometer and measure
the bearing inside diameter at two planes-near the bearing parting line and in the vertical
plane. Record the values and check with the specification data. Refer to Specifications,
Section1, 8.1.2. Fig…

4.3) Inspection & Servicing of Lube Oil Cooler


 The plate-type cooler is mounted on the lube oil cooler header. Under normal operating
conditions, the oil cooler does not require any servicing. However when the cooler is
removed during an engine overhaul, it is advisable to service it. Fig. 4.9

Servicing
 Dismantle the cooler from the cooler
header and service both the oil side
and the water side of the cooler as
below.
Cleaning the Oil Side (Internally)
 Immerse the cooling element in
clean diesel and shake it vigorously
till all the carbon and dirt comes out.

OR

 Direct compressed air very slowly from the oil outlet of the element with the element dipped
in fuel oil. This will clean the inside of the element by agitation method. Rinse the element in
fresh clean diesel and flush it with fresh lubricating oil.

Cleaning the Water Side (Externally)


 Seal the oil inlet and outlet openings of the cooler.
 Clean the cooler unit externally with soap, solution and brush. Remove rust and scale.

Do not use acid /alkaline-based cleaners. Do not use any sharp


instrument to scrape off rust as this can damage the cooler element.
 Dry the lube oil cooler either with compressed air or by keeping it open in a dust-free
environment.
 Re-assemble the lube oil cooler with new ‘O’ rings and joint on the lube oil cooler
header. Apply the torque as specified for the fasteners. Refer to the Tightening Torque
table in Section 1, 1.7.

4.4) Inspection & Servicing of Crankshaft
The crankshaft is subjected to a lot of stress during engine operation and gets worn out /
damaged over time. Before servicing the crankshaft, a thorough inspection of the crankshaft is
essential. To recondition the crankshaft a good reconditioning facility is imperative.
Visually inspect the crankshaft for wear, damages and discoloration. Assess the state of the
crankshaft- whether it can be reconditioned or it should be replaced.
Crankshaft Inspection:
 Thoroughly clean the crankshaft before inspecting it.
 Support the crankshaft on 'V' blocks on journals as per the table shown in Section 4, page
--.
Visual Damage Check
Visually inspect the crankshaft for damage such as hit marks, discoloration of pins or journals,
cracks, etc. If cracks are detected on the fillet radius, replace the crankshaft. In case of other
damages, crankshaft can be salvaged by reconditioning.
Inspection of Diameters of Journals and Pins
Check the journal and pin diameters for wear and ovality with a micrometer. Note and compare
the readings with the specified values. Refer to Specifications, Section 1, 1.8, 8.2 and 1.8, 8.9.
Fig..

Inspect the locating journal width (W) where the


thrust washers come in contact. Calculate the
clearance considering the bearing cap with standard
thrust washer width (W1).Refer to Section4, 1.8, 8.6
and 1.8, 8.10. If the clearance has exceeded the
limit value of crankshaft end play, refer to Section
1, 1.8, 8.13. Replace the crankshaft.

Inspect pulley end journal flange at the oil seal contact zone.
If wear and deep grooving is noticed, replace the crankshaft.
Fig…
Check Case Hardness of Journals and Pins
Check the surface hardness of the journals and pins with a
non-indenting type hardness tester, (Rockwell 'C' scale.) Note
and compare the values with the specification. Refer to Specifications, Section 1, 1.8 and 1.8,
8.9.3.

Crack Detection
Journals and pins should be checked for cracks.
This can be done by various crack detection
methods. KOEL recommends using the Magna
flux crack detection method. If cracks are noticed,
under-size the crankshaft till the crack disappears.
Fig…

5
If the crack is deep and reaches the soft core, it is advisable to replace the
crankshaft.

Checking Crankshaft for Bend


Procedure to be followed, to check crankshaft for bend.
 Support crankshaft on two journals as mentioned
in the table below. Fig. ----
To check one particular journal run-out, refer to
the table below. The run-out is to be checked by a
dial gauge for the specific journal or flange as
mentioned.

Sr. To check ‘run-out’ Support the crankshaft Permissible


No. of journal no. on 'V' block journal no. max. run-out
1 FWE flange diameter Journal dia. 1 and 0.05 mm
Journal dia. 2
2 Journal 1 Journal dia. 2 and 0.055 mm
Journal dia. 5
3 Journal 3 Journal dia. 2 and 0.055 mm
Journal dia. 5
4 Journal 4 Journal dia. 2 and 0.055 mm
Journal dia. 5

Journal dia. 5
6 Crankshaft nose (90 Journal dia. 1 and 0.05 mm
dia.) and nose at pulley Journal dia. 2
end

If a bend or twist is observed, do not try to rectify it as this will further damage the crankshaft
and main bore of the crankcase. KOEL recommends replacing the crankshaft.

Check for proper fillet radius on Crankshaft


 For the details of fillet radius, refer to
Specifications, Section 1, 1.8, 8.7 and Section 1,
1.8, 8.8.
 Grind all journals and pins uniformly to the same
under-size limits, within the tolerance prescribed.
 Fillet radius of journals and pins must be
maintained as specified.
 Remove all sharp corners / edges from the
journals and pins.
 Ensure that there is no mismatch of fillet radius
with diameter or face. Fig…

6
Sharp edges developed due to mismatch will lead to stress being
concentrated in a sharp-edged area thereby leading to breakage of crankshaft (through fillet
radius) in a running condition. This is the main reason for crankshaft failure.

Reconditioning work should be carried out at a good machine shop wherein proper machining
practices are followed. Proper tooling and inspection facilities should be available.

Procedure to be followed before Reconditioning

Before sending the crankshaft for machining, remove balance


weights. All the balance weights are balanced at their respective
location and hence should be numbered before removing.
Numbers must be marked by paint or permanent marker
only at site in the ascending order starting with No. 1 balance
weight which is nearest to the flywheel side. Fig. ---. For
convenience of refitting the weight exactly, all numbers should
be marked on the camshaft side of the balance weights as well
as on the crankshaft web.

Precautions during Machining:


All journals and pins must be ground uniformly to the same
under-size diameter and within the specified tolerance limits.
Maintain the specified fillet radius of journals and pins. There
should be no sharp corners / edges to the journals and pins. The
sharp corner / edge should be removed by polishing and
rounding off. Fig. ---

 There should be no visible tool marks / scratches on the fillet radius or the polished
surface areas.

 Sharp corners of oil holes should be rounded


off and blended with the pin's curvature. Fig. -

 Replace piston and pin assembly if any of the
above defects are noticed.

4.17) Checking Piston Ring Butt Clearance


The purpose of checking the piston ring butt clearance is to
check that the cylinder liner bore size is within the specified
limits.
Butt clearance, also known as end clearance, is the gap
between piston ring ends. This gap is crucial and should be
maintained as specified. Butt clearance should always be
checked with new piston rings.

Method:
 Insert one ring at a time in the cylinder liner.
 Push ring down squarely with the help of piston to about
40-50 mm.
 Measure the gap between ring ends with a feeler gauge.
Follow this procedure with the next set of the rings in

4.21) Inspection of Valve Recess in Cylinder Head


 Before removing the valves from the head, check the valve recess. Valve recess is the
distance between the cylinder head face and the valve face.
 This gap can be checked with the help of a 100 mm long straight edge and a feeler gauge
set or with the help of a dial gauge. Fig…
 The valve recess is different for inlet and exhaust valves.
 Insert the maximum specified thickness feeler gauge between the valve face and the
straight edge. If the gauge slides through the gap effortlessly, the gap is said to be more
than specified. Refer to Specifications, Section1, 1.9. In such a case, replace the valve,
the valve seat insert or both. Fig…

18
4.22) Inspection & Servicing of Cylinder Head, Valve and Valve Spring
 Before dismantling the valve assembly from the head, check the valve recess. Refer to
procedure No. 4.21 above.
 Mark the respective cylinder number on the valve face. The inlet valve has a bigger cone
diameter than the exhaust valve.
 Place the cylinder head on a flat surface with base support to inlet and exhaust valves.

 Press valve spring assembly with until the valve


collets are free.
 Remove valve collets by hand.
 Remove valve spring cup and springs.
 Remove valve from the bottom.
 Remove valve steam seal from valve guide.

for wear in both axis. Replace valves if stem is
worn out. Refer to Specifications, Section 1, 1.2.1.

19
 Check valve springs for pitting marks, cracks
and other defects. Measure the free length of
springs. Fig… Refer to Specifications, Section
1, 1.10.
 Replace spring if required.

4.23) Inspection of Cylinder Head surface flatness


 Remove carbon and clean the flat surface of the head.

 Check the surface flatness at three places. Fig…


 Use a 100 mm straight edge and a feeler gauge to
ascertain the flatness of the head.
 Put the straight edge on the surface of the head and put
the feeler gauge between the straight edge and the head.
(Not under the valve cavities.)

 If a feeler gauge passes through the gap, the face of the head is damaged and requires
repair / replacement. Refer to Specifications, Section1, 1.14.
 Correct the flatness by re-facing the head in a machine shop.

4.24) Replacing Valve Guides


 Punch out the old valve guide from the cylinder head top.
 Clean the guide bores in cylinder head with a dry cloth.
 Inspect the bores for scoring or other damage.
 Insert new valve guides by pressing them from the cylinder head top. Use mandrel for
pressing valve guide.
 After valve lapping press new valve stem seals with tool no. DV0.950.506 on the guide.

4.25) Replacing Valve Seat Inserts


 DV Series cylinder heads are fitted with replaceable valve seat inserts. KOEL
recommends replacing valve seat inserts during a major overhaul.
 Use Puller for valve seat insert for removing valve seat insert from cylinder head.
 In absence of puller for valve seat insert, the valve seat inserts can be removed with a
chisel without damaging the insert bore in the cylinder head. Alternatively the insert can
be removed by cutting it on an appropriate lathe in a machine shop.
 Clean and inspect the condition of the bore.

Note: The outer diameter of the inlet valve seat insert is more than that of the exhaust valve seat
insert.

20
 After removing the seat inserts, remove old valve guides and clean the valve guide bores.
 Cool the valve seat inserts in dry ice for about 30 minutes. OR cool in liquid nitrogen for
about 10 minutes. OR heat the head in an oven up to 130°C (not direct fire). Fit the insert
in its bore and press it immediately with a suitable tool taking the reference of the newly
fitted guide. Ensure the seat fits squarely and completely in the bore.

When using liquid nitrogen, avoid direct contact with it to prevent injury to
the body due to its sub-zero cooling effect. KOEL recommends wearing gloves while working.
Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet of liquid nitrogen.

4.26) Valve Lapping


Ensure that all inspection and servicing procedures related to the cylinder head are correctly
carried out. Refer to point nos. 4.21- 4.25,
Valve lapping should be carried out to ensure proper sealing of valves to avoid compression
leakages so as to achieve good combustion. If new valves and seats are fitted, then only a light
lapping with the 'fine' lapping compound will ensure a good sealing, but if seat/s and the valve
cones are to be refaced, then the complete valve lapping procedure is required.
Burnt and cracked valves should be replaced.
Valves with reduced rim thickness should be replaced. Refer to Specifications, Section1, 1.8.
 Check condition of both the valve face and the valve seats in the head.
 If the valve face is in a relatively good condition only light lapping with a fine lapping
paste will be required to ensure a good seating.
 If valve face is damaged, the face will have to be refaced to the correct angle without
reducing the rim thickness.
 If the valve rim thickness is already reduced, replace the valve.
 If valve seat is damaged beyond repair, replace valve seat.
 Thoroughly de-carbonize and clean the valve and cylinder head before proceeding for
valve lapping.
 Apply a small quantity of coarse lapping compound all around the valve seat.
 Dip the valve stem in fresh clean oil and insert the numbered valve in the respective valve
guide.


Ensure that no valve grinding paste touches the valve stem or valve guide.
This will damage both the valve guide and the valve stem.
 Lap the valve and seat by rotating the valve back and
forth in a half turn with gentle but firm pressure with
the help of a cupped valve-grinding tool.

21
 After every few turns, lift the valve off slightly from
the seat, give it a half-turn and tap gently. This is essential
to uniformly spread the grinding paste. Keep grinding
until the rough gritty feeling of the coarse compound turns
relatively smooth.

 Remove the valve, wipe the compound from the valve and seat and check for a contact
pattern. When a relatively good flawless pattern is achieved, lap the valve again with the
fine lapping compound.

Maintain a separate cloth and small quantity of diesel for wiping off the
compound from the valve cone and seat inserts. This prevents accidental damage to the valve
stem and guides.

 After lapping, visually inspect both the valve face and seat. The finished contact pattern
on both should be even, without flaw or break, scratch or depression marks.

Note: If a shining line or scratches are visible on the seats after lapping, it is possible that the
lapping was carried out with a heavy hand. Such valves will have to be lightly re-lapped again
with the fine compound.

 Wash the valves and cylinder head with clean diesel to remove all trace of the harmful
abrasive material and dry with compressed air.
 Before assembling the lapped valve assembly, confirm that the seating is good. This can
be done by a pencil erase test. Refer to Inspection & Servicing Procedure No. 4.27
 Wipe and lightly lubricate the valve stem. Assemble valve in its original seat with valve
spring and new stem seal and lock it in position.
 After locking the valve, check sealing of the seats. This should be checked by carrying
out the fuel leakage test. Refer to Inspection & Servicing Procedure No. 4.28

4.27) Checking Valve Seat by Pencil Erase Test


The pencil erase test is a simple test. It should be carried out before assembling the valve
to the cylinder head. This test ensures proper valve seating.

Method
 Draw a zigzag line on the lapped valve's seat surface
with a soft lead pencil. Fig….
 Fit the valve in its place in the head and turn it once
to 900 or 1/4 turn with a gentle but firm pressure.

 Pull the valve out and inspect the pencil line. The lines should be completely erased from
the seats. This proves proper seating and good sealing.
 If the pencil marks are not erased fully, repeat the lapping process as per procedure no.
4.26

22
4.28) Valve Checking by Diesel Leakage Test
Ensure the pencil erase test is carried out and sealing is ok.
 Assembling the lapped valves, lock the collar,
spring and cone in position with the valve collets.
Pour clean diesel into the air inlet and
subsequently exhaust gas ports.
 Check if the diesel leaks out between the valve
face and seat.

 No diesel should leak out between the seats for the next 30 seconds. This ensures that
the sealing is effective.
 If sealing is ineffective, diesel will leak out between a valve and seat. This diesel leak
may be due to dirt on the valve seat. Tap the valve lightly on the stem with a hammer to
remove the leak.

4.29) Inspection of Valve Rocker Assembly & Push Rod


Measure the inside diameter of the rocker lever bush.
 Measure the outside diameter of the corresponding rocker shaft.
 Calculate the clearance between rocker bush and
shaft. Compare the reading with Specifications,
Section 1, 1.1 3.3. If the clearance is more than
the specified limit, replace the rocker lever bush.
KOEL recommends replacing the rocker lever
bush set during a major overhaul of an engine.

 Inspect push rods for bend or other damages.


 Note: Concentricity of push rod can be checked
by rolling them on a smooth flat surface or surface
plate with the palm of the hand.

 Check the push rod cup and cone for damage.


Replace damaged rods.

23
4.30) Method of adjusting the fuel timing
The fuel timing is required to be adjusted when the fuel pump is removed from the engine during
engine major overhaul or for calibration.

 Bring 1st cylinder piston (from flywheel side) to 'top


dead center' in compression stroke. This can be
checked with the ‘T’ mark on the flywheel coinciding
with the pointer punched on the flywheel housing.
 Connect external diesel pump trolley to fuel pump.
 Start the pump and adjust delivery pressure to 15
bars.
 Rotate the fuel pump shaft until fuel spill is cut-off
for cylinder no.1
 Assemble the fuel pump gear and tighten the bolts.
 Disconnect the external diesel pump trolley.
 Assemble the H.P. Pipes and overflow pipes.

4.31) Bleeding the Fuel System


Bleed the fuel system thoroughly to avoid an 'air lock' in the fuel circuit. This will eliminate
operational problems like engine starting trouble, engine hunting and engine not taking load.

To bleed the system:


 Operate the hand-priming pump provided on the Pre-line filter

 Unscrew the vent screw provided on the filter's header


till the fuel flows out freely without any air bubbles.
 Tighten the screw.
 Vent screw is provided on the fuel pump body, carry out
similar operation. After the bleeding operation is carried out, the
hand-priming pump will become hard to operate.

4.32) Servicing the Air Inlet & Exhaust Manifold


 Remove the old joint from the manifold face with the help of a blunt metal piece.

 Before cleaning the air inlet manifold check for


presence of oil or dust (Oil indicate; faulty
turbocharger seals, whereas dust indicates, faulty
air cleaner, hose and connections).
 Clean the manifold from inside with clean diesel.

24
The exhaust manifold is in two parts, joined by a expansion bellow. The joint requires attention
as exhaust gases leaking from the joint can hamper engine performance.

 Separate two manifolds from the joint.


 Remove carbon and clean the manifolds from
inside.
 Check the manifold's flanges flatness with a
straight edge.
 Check the flatness of the face where the
turbocharger sits with a straight edge.

PARTS CLEAN-UP PROCEDURE


Cleaning is generally done by soaking the components in commercially available non-caustic
solvent, wiping, brushing or scraping any residue off and then blow drying with clean
compressed air.

27
However, vapor blasting is a good alternative if available, providing the vapor blasting
equipment manufacturers instructions are carefully followed and critical surfaces are
appropriately protected (see details below).

If parts are to be stored for any length of time after cleaning then they should be stored in clean,
dry plastic bags and the surfaces of all potentially rusting parts should be oiled prior to storage.

1. Bearing Housing
a) Scrape, brush or wipe as appropriate, to remove accumulations of residue from the
exterior surfaces.
b) Immerse briefly in safety solvent to remove any oily residue.
c) Blow dry with compressed air.
N.B. If vapor blasting is used mask the bore with corks or rubber stoppers.

2. Compressor Wheel
a) Immerse briefly in safety solvent to remove any traces of oily residue.
b) Blow dry with compressed air.
N.B. If vapor blasting then take care to mask the bore with corks or rubber stoppers.

3. Shaft and Wheel


a) Immerse briefly in safety solvent to remove any traces of oily residue.
b) Blow dry with compressed air.

N.B. If vapor blasting then take care to mask the entire shaft section with either appropriately
sized rubber hose or adhesive backed cloth tape.

a. c. After cleaning mount the shaft and wheel between centres in a lathe and lightly polish
the journal section of the shaft at 300 to 600 rpm with 400 grit abrasive paper and clean
oil.
b. NOTE: If the shaft and wheel shows any evidence of imbalance (bearing material
smeared on only one side of the shaft) - do not attempt to reuse.
c. After polishing re-immerse briefly in safety solvent and blow dry with compressed air.

4. Compressor cover
a. Scrape, brush or wipe, as appropriate, to remove accumulations of residue from the
exterior surfaces.
b. Immerse briefly in safety solvent to remove any oily residue.

INSPECTION OF PARTS FOR RE-USE

It is recommended that all visual and dimensional checking of parts for re-use be done after parts
have been cleaned as described above. Critical dimensions mentioned below are given in the
latest issue of the ‘Hundred Series Service Limits and Torque Values' Data Sheet.

1. Bearing Housing
a. Inspect visually for evidence of cracks and fractures, pitting of gasket and other machined
surfaces, or distortion of the turbine end flange. Reject and replace if any of the above
conditions are severe.
b. Closely inspect the bearing bore visually for signs of damage or wear. The condition of
the removed bearings will be a good indicator of the bore condition. Refer to ‘Service
Limits Tables’
a) for maximum bore diameters. Reject and replace if bore condition is substandard.
c. Examine the turbine end seal bore for damage and replace bearing housing if wear is
excessive.
N.B. Do not mistake the machined step and relief groove for a wear ridge.

2. Compressor Wheel
Inspect visually for evidence of bent, burred, nicked or eroded blades and for evidence of
scuffing on the back face. Dynamically balance the Compressor wheel and reject and
replace if any damage has affected wheel balance. Do not attempt to straighten bent blades.

3. Shaft and Wheel


a) Inspect visually for evidence of bent, burred, nicked or eroded blades and for evidence of
scuffing on the back face. Very minor damage is acceptable but reject and replace if the
damage appears sufficient to affect wheel balance. Do not attempt to straighten bent
blades.
b) Inspect hub visually for evidence of smearing (as with high speed contact with the
bearing house bore) and for deterioration of the original rectangular configuration of the
piston ring groove. Reject and replace if the damage or
wear is excessive.
c) Inspect journal diameter for wear. If this appears
reusable the diameter should be checked with a
micrometer referring to the ‘Service Limits
Tables’.

29
e. Dynamically balance the shaft and wheel assembly, referring to the ‘Service Limits
Tables’. Do not attempt to straighten a bent shaft.

4. Compressor Cover
Inspect visually for evidence of contour damage (as from high speed wheel contact). Reject
and replace if damage is excessive. It is permissible to polish out minor surface damage in
the contour.

5. Turbine Housing and Back plate


Inspect visually for evidence of contour damage (as from high speed wheel contact) and for
evidence of over temperature damage such as cracking, pitting, distortion or erosion.
Reject and replace if damage is excessive.

6. Insert
Inspect the insert bore for evidence of surface damage. If there is evidence of contact
with rotating components or if the piston ring wear has created a ridge the insert should be
rejected and replaced.

7. Flinger Sleeve
Inspect visually for evidence of surface damage from contact with stationary parts. If piston
ring wear has caused the ring groove to deteriorate from its original rectangular configuration
reject and replace the flinger sleeve.

8. V Clamps
Inspect visually for evidence of cracks or distortion of the clamp and T-bolt threads.
Reject and replace if damage is excessive.

S300 ASSEMBLY.

Schwitzer Turbocharger Service Limits and Torque Values.


All technical turbocharger service data provided in this section is to our original manufacturing
specifications. The service data sheets may be used as a reference when rebuilding Schwitzer
turbochargers. To avoid premature failure and possibly consequential Engine damage, use only
Genuine Schwitzer service parts.

Compressor Locknut Torque Values

Refer to Schwitzer Service data sheet for tightening values


There are 3 methods of specifying the tightening values of compressor locknuts and
these vary with model type.
1. The simple .Pure Torque. Method.
2. The .Snug Torque and Angle. Method. Where a torque figure together with an
angle, the torque value is the snug torque followed by a continued tightening of a
further specified angle.
3. The .Shaft Stretch. Method. The locknut tightness is measured by monitoring the
amount in mm [ins] that the shaft increases in length as the increased force is
applied to the threads. This is the most accurate method by illuminating the false
readings due to friction, sometimes experienced in torque methods.
Note:- specialist equipment is required for this method.

On Several models the shaft threads have changed recently from .Right Hand Thread.
to .Left Hand Thread.. When servicing care must be exercised to identify which thread is present.

When tightening to the specified value .Right Hand Threads. should be coated with 2
drops of Locktight adhesive of grade MS 8-7001 or similar. Left Hand Threads. should
be lightly oiled.

SERVICE LIMITS & TORQUE VALUES

4.34) Valve Tappet Setting


Tappet clearance setting is necessary to compensate for the expansion of heated valve mechanism
parts. These parts expand due to heat.

Valve Tappet setting


The tappet clearances are to be adjusted if
- Engine is overhauled
- The cylinder head is disassembled
- When abnormal noise is noticed in the valve train.
The valve clearance (in cold condition)

Engine Model For Inlet and Exhaust valves


DV8/DV10/DV12 0.35 mm

Method for setting the Tappet clearance


 Setting Valves with individual cylinder at ‘top dead center’.
 Bring 1st cylinder piston (from flywheel side) to 'top dead center' in compression stroke. This
can be checked with the ‘T’ mark on the flywheel coinciding with the pointer punched on the
flywheel housing. Check if both inlet and exhaust valves are free. This can be ascertained by
rotating the push rods by hand. If push rods are not free, rotate the crankshaft a full 3600 (Full
turn).
 Set valve clearance on both the inlet and the exhaust tappets as specified. Refer to
Specifications, Section1,
Note: The correct valve gap setting requires that the feeler gauge slides firmly but smoothly in
the gap between rocker arm and Valve Bridge

 Turn the crankshaft pulley in the clockwise direction till the next cylinder in firing order
comes to ‘top dead center’ in compression stroke.

34
 Continue with the process till all cylinder valves are set as per the firing order shown below.

4.37) Servicing of Centrifugal Lube Oil Filter
The centrifugal filter is fitted on the lube oil sump. It is only a by-pass filter. The centrifuge is a super
filter, removing minute harmful particles and sludge up to 4 microns (by centrifugal force from the
engine oil, when the engine is in operation). This filter increases the life of the oil as well as the engine
and maintains a constant lube oil pressure.

 It is a precision assembly. Consult authorised persons.

36
 Carry out servicing preferably when engine is still warm.

Centrifugal Filter Servicing Procedure

 Wipe the filter body from the outside with dry cloth.

 Unscrew top nut and remove cleaner cover. Lift rotor and drain oil from
it.


 Unscrew rotor nut by holding rotor assembly in hand. Remove rotor


cover and deflector inside.

 Remove the conical disc.


 Clean the conical disc with the
help of a wire brush and wash it
in clean diesel.
 Remove the cake of sticky dirt
formed inside the rotor cover
with a blunt knife. Wash in clean
diesel.

 Clean all rotor parts with proper detergent.


 Clean the rotor cover nozzles with a fine wire.
 Blow compressed air on the rotor cover nozzles.
 Check the 'O' rings on the rotor and the housing. If damaged, replace them…
 Clean the filter bowl from inside.

37
 Assemble all rotor parts in a proper order and close the rotor cover nut with a maximum torque
of 1.2 kgm.
 Match arrow narks on rotor and rotor cover.
 Confirm rotor rotates freely on the shaft.
 Tighten the center dome cover nut.
 Start the engine and let it run for some time till the oil turns warm.

Stop the engine. The humming noise of the rotor should be heard after the engine has stopped. This
shows that the centrifugal filter is working properly.

4.38) Servicing the dry type Air Cleaner

Dos and Don'ts of Dry Type Air Cleaner

Dos
 Service the filter element only if the restriction indicator shows a red band in engine
stopped condition.
 Check the condition and functioning of the restriction indicator regularly.
 Check the evacuator valve regularly and replace it if required.
 Clean the filter casing by wiping the dust from inside with a damp cloth.
 Clean the baffle dust cover with compressed air.
 Clean the main element with compressed air from inside-out, in the opposite direction to
air flow. The compressed air pressure should not exceed 3 kg/cm2. The air nozzle ID
should be not less than 8 mm and nozzle mouth at least 25 to 30 mm away from the
inside surface of the element.
 The element should be replaced only after cleaning the element twice.
 Check the element which has been cleaned with an inspection lamp for tear, perforations
or any damage. Replace the damaged element.
 Do not disturb or remove during servicing of the main element. Replace the safety
element at every replacement of the main element.
 Check and ensure that all connections, seals and joints are air-tight and leak-proof.
 Ensure that the exhaust and/or oil fumes are not sucked in by the engine induction
system.
 While re-assembling the air cleaner, ensure that :
 The sealing ring of the element is OK and the rubber grommet and washer are OK and in
position.
 The end cover seals the entire periphery around the air cleaner body.
 The element is clamped with the wing nut.

Don'ts
 Do not service / replace the element if the restriction indicator is not showing red band.
 Do not clean the element by rapping, tapping or pounding.
 Do not wash the element with hot water and soap or with petrol.
 Do not remove/disturb the safety element when the main element is removed for
cleaning/checking.

38
 Do not clean the filter elements unless the restriction indicator is showing red alert
signal.
 Do not clean the safety element.
 Do not fill oil or wet any part of the air cleaner with oil.

The Pre-cleaning (if provided) should be cleaned to remove the accumulated dust, after each
day’s work, when the engine is stopped.

Cleaning Procedure for Filter Element


 Cleaning of filter element is to be done only when the filter element is choked which is
indicated by a restriction indicator showing a red signal even after the engine has
stopped.
 Check the restriction indicator daily.
 Do not clean the main element unless it is choked.
 The cleaning procedure for the filter element is as below.

 Remove the wing nut of the element and take out


the element for checking and cleaning..
 Do not remove the inner (safety) element.

39
 Use a damp cloth to wipe all excess dust in the air
cleaner. Similarly clean the end cover.
 Thorough cleaning of the filter element with
compressed air is recommended. Clean the element
from inside-out, using the pressurised plug.
 The maximum air pressure should not exceed 3
kg/cm2. (Too much air pressure can break the fiber
paper and destroy the element.)

 The cleaning nozzle ID should be less than 8 mm.


 The minimum distance between the nozzle and the
filter element inner side should be 25 to 30 mm.

 Do not clean the element from outside

 Rapping, tapping or pounding dust out of the element is


dangerous. Serious damage to the filter can result.
 Do not wash the air cleaner element with hot water/soap or
petrol.

 Carefully check a new or properly cleaned element for damage before its installation in the
cleaner. Conduct the light test by passing a light bulb through the element as illustrated
below. If there is any crack in the element, the light will pass through it. In that case replace
the element.

 Inspect the rubber-sealing ring at the end cover of the element. If


damaged, replace it.

40
 Replace the main element after two cleaning intervals.
 Replace the inner or safety element every time the outer or main
element is replaced or after two years of duration or of the 3rd
replacement of main element whichever is earlier. Service /
Replace the element if the restriction indicator is showing the red
band.

 Re-set the restriction indicator by pressing the button on top.

Vaccuator Valve Maintenance

 The vaccuator valve at the bottom of the end cover


helps in expelling the accumulated dust. This is
achieved by opening and closing of the vaccuator
valve outlet due to the air flow fluctuations inside the
air cleaner.
 Make sure that the vaccuator valve is not damaged. If
necessary, change it.
 Check the condition of the cup joint sealing. Replace
if necessary.
 Before starting the engine it is recommended to manually tap out the dust.

To remove dust

 Press the vaccuator valve lip open. Tap lightly on the


valve till dust falls out.
 Release the lips. They will close automatically.
 If valve lips do not close properly replace
 the vaccuator valve.

4.39) Inspection of Thermostat Element

A thermostat element is required to bring up the working


temperature of the engine quickly and to maintain the desired
temperature of coolant during engine running period.

41
 Carry out a visual inspection of element resting face towards proper sealing of the
element.
 Fill a container with water. Heat the water more than 740 C.
 While water is heating, immerse the thermostat element in the container with a string so
that opening and closing of the element is clearly visible.
 Record the temperature readings for both stages i.e. when the thermostat element starts
opening and when completely opened, with the help of a thermometer.
 The thermostat element should start opening at 720 C to 740 C and be completely open at
880 C.
 The thermostat is in proper working condition if it satisfies the above conditions.

4.40) Inspection & Servicing of the Radiator and Charge Air Cooler (CAC) Radiator
External Checking

 Check the radiator cap for effective sealing and


correct pressure specification. Replace cap if
required.

Radiator and Charge Air Cooler


 Inspect the radiator tubes for leaks. If tubes are
leaking, repair at an authorised outlet only.
 Check for water leakage between the core and
header tank joints.
 Inspect radiator-cooling fins for damage. If fins
are damaged, get the fins repaired.
 Clean the radiator core externally by pressurised
air in the reverse direction of cooling air flow.
 Check the water inlet and outlet connections (to
and from header and bottom tank) for leakages.

If radiator tubes are choked internally due to scale or rust formation,


clean the radiator internally with 'K Clean'. Refer to procedure No. 4.41

 Clean the radiator core externally with


pressurised air in the reverse direction of
cooling air flow.

42
Charge Air Cooler

 Remove the plug at the bottom from the


charge air-cooler air outlet tank. Drain out

 Engine coolant should not be disposed off into drains, soil, sewer systems or open water.

4.42) Servicing the Fan Driving Arrangement

 Unscrew the grooved nuts. Remove the adapter.


 Remove the pulley.
 Remove the internal circlip and pull out both the ball bearings.
 Check the shaft. If found worn/ damaged replace the unit.
 Replace both ball bearings. (Since 'sealed' ball bearings are used,
do not fill grease between both ball bearings.)
 Re-assemble the drive arrangement and tighten the groove nuts with a special spanner.
 Check freeness by rotating.
4.43) Inspection of Auto Electricals
4.43.1) Battery
 While disconnecting the battery from the engine, remove _ve connection first. Battery
Specific gravity should be checked with a hydrometer about 5 minutes after topping with
distilled water.
 Check and correct the electrolyte level as well as the specific gravity of battery cells.
 If the specific gravity is not as per the table below, charge the battery externally.
 Store the battery on a wooden plank in a dry and cool place.
 If the battery is to be stored for more than 8 days, charge the battery with a static battery
charger.
 Ensure that the battery top is clean and dry. Ensure that the battery vent holes are open.
Choked vent holes could lead to the battery bursting.
 Ensure that petroleum jelly is applied on all battery leads.
 Ensure that the lead taper is matched with the terminal taper.

Battery State:

State of Charge Specific Gravity Specific Gravity
