Preface
This Repair Manual is designed to facilitate competent repair of the engines listed herein.
The pictures and relevant descriptions show typical work that may not always be applicable to the engine in
hand, which nevertheless does not mean that they are not correct. In such cases the repair work is to be
planned and carried out in a similar way.
The expert knowledge necessary for handling Diesel engines was taken for granted when this publication
was compiled.
Any repair of components such as injection pump, alternator etc. ought to be left to our or the manufacturer’s service department.

This brief overview summarises important instructions and is structured into areas of main concern in order
to impart the knowledge necessary to prevent accidents involving injury to persons, damage to the engine
or other property and harm to the environment. Additional notes are included in the operator’s manual for
the engine.
Important: If despite all safety precautions an accident occurs as a result of contact with caustic acids,
penetration of fuel into the skin, scalding with hot oil, anti-freeze splashes into the eyes etc, consult a doc-
tor immediately!
1. Instructions for preventing accidents with injury to persons
Checks, setting jobs and repair work must be carried out by authorised skilled personnel only.
D When carrying out maintenance and repair work, ensure that the engine cannot be ac-
cidentally started from the bridge by unauthorised persons.
D The engine must be started and operated by authorised personnel only.
D When the engine is running, do not get too close to revolving components. Wear tight-
fitting working clothes.
D Do not touch hot engine with bare hands: risk of burning yourself.
D Keep engine vicinity, ladder and steps free of oil and grease. Accidents resulting from
slipping may have serious consequences.
D Work only with tools that are in good condition. Worn spanners slip: risk of injuries.
D Persons must not stand under an engine suspended from a crane hook. Keep lifting
gear in good order.
D Open coolant circuit only after the engine has cooled down. If opening the coolant cir-
cuit while the engine is hot is unavoidable, observe the instructions in the chapter
”Maintenance and care” in the Operator’s Manual.
D Neither retighten nor open pressurised pipelines and hoses (lube oil circuit, coolant cir-
cuit and downstream hydraulic oil circuit if fitted): risk of injuries resulting from emerging
fluids.

Safety instructions
D When checking the injection nozzles, do not hold your hands in the fuel jet. Do not in-
hale fuel mist.
D When working on the electrical system, unplug earth cable from battery first and recon-
nect it last to avoid short-circuits.
D Observe the manufacturer ’s instructions for handling batteries.
Caution:
Battery acid is toxic and caustic. Battery gases are explosive.
D When carrying out welding work, observe the ”Information sheets for welders”.

Safety instructions
2. Instructions for preventing damage to the engine and premature wear
D Prior to repairing the engine, clean it thoroughly. Ensure that dirt, sand or foreign matter will
not get into the engine during repair work.
D In the event of operational faults immediately identy the cause and rectify to prevent more serious dam-
age.
D Always use genuine MAN parts only. Installation of ”equally” good parts from other suppliers may cause
severe damage for which the workshop carrying out the work is responsible.
D Never operate the engine while it is dry, i.e. without lubricant or coolant.
Use a suitable label to mark engines not ready for operation.
D Only use operating materials (fuel, engine oil, antifreeze and anticorrosion agents) approved by MAN.
Ensure that everything is kept clean. Diesel fuel must be free of water.
D Do not fill up with engine oil above the max. notch on the dipstick. Do not exceed the engine’s
maximum permissible operating inclination.
Non–compliance with these instructions may cause severe engine damage.
D Control and monitoring devices (charge check, oil pressure, coolant temperature) must work faultlessly.
D Observe the instructions for operating the alternator; see chapter ”Commissioning and operation” in the
Operator’s Manual.
3. Instructions for preventing environmental damage
Engine oil and filter cartridges and elements, fuel/fuel filters
D Take old oil to an old oil disposal point only.
D Ensure without fail that oil and Diesel fuel will not get into the sewerage system or the ground.
Caution:
Danger of contaminating potable water!
D Treat filter elements and cartridges as special waste.
Coolant
D Treat undiluted anticorrosion and/or antifreeze agents as special waste.
D The regulations of the relevant local authorities are to be observed for the disposal of spent coolants.

Safety instructions
4. Instructions for handling used engine oil *
Prolonged or repeated contact of any kind of engine oil with the skin causes the skin to degrease, which
may result in dryness, irritation or inflammation. Old engine oil also contains hazardous substances which
in animal experiments have caused skin cancer. Handling old engine oil does not pose any health hazard if
the basic safety and hygiene related regulations are observed.
Health and safety regulations:
D Avoid prolonged, excessive or repeated contact of old engine oil with the skin.
D Use a suitable skin protection agent or wear protective gloves.
D Clean the skin that has been in contact with engine oil.
– Wash yourself thoroughly with soap and water. A nailbrush is an effective aid.
– Special hand cleaning agents facilitate cleaning soiled hands.
– Do not use petrol, Diesel fuel, gas oil, fluxes or solvents as cleaning agents.
D After washing apply moisturising handcream to your skin.
D Change oil-soaked clothes and shoes.
D Do not put any oil-soaked cloths into pockets.
Pay meticulous attention to the proper disposal of old engine oil.
– Old oil is a water hazard –
Therefore, do not pour any old oil into the ground, the drains or the sewerage system. Any violation of this
rule is punishable.
Collect and dispose of old engine oil properly. For information concerning collection points, contact seller,
supplier or the local authorities.
∗ Based on the ”Merkblatt für den Umgang mit gebrauchtem Motorenöl”
(Notes on how to handle old engine oil).

General information on the overhaul of engines
Very different factors have an influence on the life expectancy of an engine. For this reason it is not possible to give certain predetermined numbers of operating hours for basic overhauls.
Regular interim inspections and overhauls frequently carried out on large engines (e.g. on those from MAN
Augsburg) are generally not necessary on MAN Diesel engines from the MAN Nuremberg works.
In our opinion, opening an engine or carrying out a basic overhaul is not appropriate as long as the engine
achieves good compression values and the following operating values measured and recorded and have
not changed significantly since commissioning:
D Charge-air pressure
D Exhaust-gas temperature
D Coolant and lube-oil temperature
D Oil pressure and oil consumption
D Formation of smoke
The following criteria have a major influence on the life expectancy of an engine:
D Correct output setting according to the type of operation.
D Expert installation in accordance with the installation instructions.
D Inspection of the installation by authorized personnel.
D Regular maintenance as per maintenance plan
D Selection and quality of lube oil, fuel and coolant as specified in the publication
”Fuels, Lubricants, Coolants for Industrial and Marine Diesel Engines”.

Faults and possible causes
We recommend
Repair work is to be considered complete only after the damage which has occurred and the possible
causes have been eliminated. Ascertaining the causes of damage is frequently more difficult than eliminating the damage caused. For this reason we recommend you have the operational fault exactly described to
you before removal or disassembly work is commenced. Then, track down the probable causes by asking
specific questions, examining and eliminating these causes one by one with the aid of the table and yourown experience. This helps to reduce repairs to those necessary and counter complaints about ”premature” exchange of parts and expensive working and downtimes.
Remark:
The subsequent list is meant to be a memory aid so that no causes of damage will be overlooked in the
elimination of faults. The precondition for this, however, is that you are familiar with the Repair Manual for
the engine and the relevant Operating Instructions as well as the publication ”Fuels, Lubricants, Coolants
for Industrial and Marine Diesel Engines”.

Checking and adjusting start of fuel delivery
Checking start of delivery
Fig. 1
For the purpose of checking the start-of-delivery
setting, an ”OT” (= TDC) mark and a scale (2) from
10 ... 50_ before TDC are engraved on a disc fitted
in front of the torsional vibration damper. The scale
marks are read against a pointer (1) fitted to the
crankcase.
Fig. 2
To turn the engine over manually during the setting
work, a plate with a central hexagon bolt is located
on the front side of the crankshaft pulley.

Figs. 3 and 4
There is another scale engraved on the flywheel
which can be read through an inspection hole in
the flywheel housing but access may be difficult.
The scale should be used for readjusting the
pointer after the vibration damper has been removed or replaced.
Before the vibration damper with the scale disc is
installed, the engine should be positioned at ”OT”
(= TDC) by means of the scale on the flywheel.
The pointer should then be aligned such that its
measuring edge exactly coincides with the ”OT”
mark on the scale disc.

If fitted, take out blocking pin (2).
If the pointer is exactly in the centre of the
inspection hole, the pump plunger for cylinder no.
1 is at start of delivery. However, it is possible to
determine exactly whether or not the pump is at
start of delivery only by means of the following
special tools:
12
a. Light signal transmitter
Fig. 6
Push light signal transmitter into socket in gover-
nor housing. Ensure that the lug (3) fits in the
groove (4). Tighten the knurled nut (5) by hand.
Connect up power supply of light signal transmitter
(red terminal = +). Turn engine by hand so that
piston in cylinder no. 1 in the compression stroke
comes close to the start of delivery.
Lamp (A) comes on shortly before start of delivery
is reached.
Fig. 7
Slowly turn the engine further until lamp (B) comes
on too. The injection pump is now at start of
delivery.
The light signal transmitter KDEP 1600 (Fig.) is
connected to the starter battery for the power supply.
