Cutting Out and Cutting In of the Injection and Actuator Pump

1. Injection pump

1.1. General
Injection pumps can be cut in or out as required during operation. This should, whenever possible, be done at greatly
reduced speed. The device for it is built into the injection pumps.

Manner of functioning while cutting out (see Fig. ’A’):

Every time the roller 2 is on the addendum of the cam 1, the hole 4 in the roller guide 3 comes into line with the cut-out
pin ’AZ’.
The eccentric pin 9 and therewith the spring dowel 10 are kept in the short slot ’SS’ of the guide groove by the force of
the spring 7. If eccentric pin 9 is pressed inwards, cut-out pin ’AZ’ rests on the roller guide. When hole 4 and cut-out
pin ’AZ’ now come in line with each other, the latter is pushed into roller guide 3 by pressing inwards. In this way the
piston is held fast in this position.
By turning the eccentric pin 9 through 100 _( in an anticlockwise direction, the roller guide 3 is raised slightly so that
some clearance exists between roller 2 and the addendum of the cam 1.

Manner of functioning while cutting in (see Fig. ’A’):

When cutting the injection pump back in, the eccentric pin 9 is turned so that the roller guide 3 is dropped until the
roller 2 lies on the addendum of cam 1. This results in the cut-out pin ’AZ’ being unloaded. By the force of spring 7
eccentric pin 9 is pressed outwards and, therefore, spring dowel pin 10 enters into the short slot ’SS’ of the guide
groove. The pump is again in operating position.

2. Cutting out and cutting in an injection pump

2.1. Cutting out procedure (see Fig. ’B’ to ’D’)

Starting position: Injection pump in service, engine either running at reduced speed or being turned with
turning gear.

D Attach open end ring spanner 8 (keeping on the in- 8

spection cover of the injection pump) to the hexa- B
gon of the eccentric pin 9 as shown in Fig. ’B’.

2.2. Cutting-in procedure (see Fig. ’E’ to ’G’)

Starting position: Injection pump is out of service (position of the cut-out device corresponds with Fig. ’E’).
Engine is either running or being turned with the turning gear.

Remark By the force of spring 7 eccentric pin

9 is first pressed out when the roller

cam 1, i.e. when the roller guide 3 is
raised slightly from the cut-out pin 10
’AZ’. 5

If the pumps are cut in on the running engine the pro- G

cess will become possible after a short delay. If this hap- 8
pens, however, when the engine is rotated with the turn-
ing gear, then it may sometimes take several minutes till
the eccentric pin 12 is pressed out. In the latter case it is
best to watch for the cam to reach the top, and then the
open end ring spanner is to be turned through 100 _( in
a clockwise direction.
D Remove open end ring spanner 8 and store it at the
SS
depository.

Cutting Out and Cutting In of the Injection and Actuator Pump

3. Actuator pump

3.1. General
Actuator pumps for actuating the exhaust valves can neither be cut out nor cut in when the engine is running. Should
it be necessary, such pumps can be put out of action by fitting the device (tool 94430) contained in the tool kit or put
back into service by removing it.

Attention Should an engine have to be started with a cut out actuator pump, the injection pump of the rele-
vant cylinder must also be cut out. In addition, the exhaust valve of the relevant cylinder must be
open (see group 0520–1).

Failure to comply with this requirement can have serious consequences.

When it is intended to put the engine into service later with a cut-out actuator pump, it is recommended that the
relevant injection pump be cut out at this time (in this case, see group 0520–1).
