Most accidents that involve product operation, maintenance and repair are caused by failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary training, skills and tools to perform these functions properly.
Improper operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair of this product can be dangerous and could result in injury or death.
Do not operate or perform any lubrication, maintenance or repair on this product, until you have read and understood the operation, lubrication, maintenance and repair information.
Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual and on the product. If these hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons.
The hazards are identified by the “Safety Alert Symbol” and followed by a “Signal Word” such as “DANGER”, “WARNING” or “CAUTION”. The Safety Alert “WARNING” label is shown below.
The meaning of this safety alert symbol is as follows:
Attention! Become Alert! Your Safety is Involved.
The message that appears under the warning explains the hazard and can be either written or pictorially presented.
Operations that may cause product damage are identified by “NOTICE” labels on the product and in this publication.
Perkins cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. The warnings in this publication and on the product are, therefore, not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure, work method or operating technique that is not specifically recommended by Perkins is used, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and for others. You should also ensure that the product will not be damaged or be made unsafe by the operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair procedures that you choose.
The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are on the basis of information that was available at the time that the publication was written. The specifications, torques, pressures, measurements, adjustments, illustrations, and other items can change at any time. These changes can affect the service that is given to the product. Obtain the complete and most current information before you start any job. Perkins dealers or Perkins distributors have the most current information available.
When replacement parts are required for this product Perkins recommends using Perkins
replacement parts.
Failure to heed this warning can lead to prema­ture failures, product damage, personal injury or
death.

Burn Prevention
Do not touch any part of an operating engine system. The engine, the exhaust, and the engine aftertreatment system can reach temperatures as high as 650 °C (1202 °F) under normal operating conditions. If the engine or the engine aftertreatment system unexpectedly fails, the temperature of the gas at the diesel particulate lter (DPF) may increase to 900°C (1652°F).
At idle engine speed and/or zero vehicle speed, an operator can request a manual regeneration. Under this condition, the exhaust gas temperature can reach 650 °C (1202 °F). Otherwise automatic regeneration can produce exhaust gas temperatures as high as 450 °C (842 °F).
Allow the engine system to cool before any maintenance is performed. Relieve all pressure in the air system, in the hydraulic system, in the lubrication system, in the fuel system, or in the cooling system before any lines, ttings, or related items are disconnected.

Safety Section
Fire Prevention and Explosion Prevention
Contact with high pressure fuel may cause uid penetration and burn hazards. High pressure fu­el spray may cause a re hazard. Failure to fol­low these inspe ction, maintenance and service in­structions may cause personal injury or death.
After the engine has stopped, you must wait for 10 minutes in order to allow the fuel pressure to be purged from the high-pressure fuel lines before any service or repair is performed on the engine fuel lines.
Allow the pressure to be purged in the air system, in the hydraulic system, in the lubrication system, or in the cooling system before any lines, ttings, or related items are disconnected.

Sulfuric Acid Burn Hazard may cause serious per­sonal injury or death.
The exhaust gas cooler may contain a small amount of sulfuric acid. The use of fuel with sul­fur levels greater than 15 ppm may increase the amount of sulfuric acid formed. The sulfuric acid may spill from the cooler during service of the engine. The sulfuric acid will burn the eyes, skin and clothing on contact. Always wear the a ppro­priate personal protective equipment (PPE) that is noted on a material safety data sheet (MSDS) for sulfuric acid.

Coolant
When the engine is at operating temperature, the engine coolant is hot. The coolant is also under pressure. The radiator and all lines to the heaters or to the engine contain hot coolant. The aftertreatment regeneration device (ARD) is connected to the coolant system and will contain hot coolant.
Any contact with hot coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system components to cool before the cooling system is drained.
Check that the coolant level after the engine has stopped and the engine has been allowed to cool.
Ensure that the ller cap is cool before removing the ller cap. The ller cap must be cool enough to touch withabarehand.Removetheller cap slowly in order to relieve pressure.

The high pressure fuel lines are the fuel lines that are between the high pressure fuel pump and the high pressure fuel manifold and the fuel lines that are between the fuel manifold and cylinder head. These fuel lines are different from fuel lines on other fuel systems.
This is because of the following items:
The high pressure fuel lines are constantly charged
with high pressure.
The internal pressures of the high pressure fuel
lines are higher than other types of fuel system.
The high pressure fuel lines are formed to shape
and then strengthened by a special process.
Do not step on the high pressure fuel lines. Do not deect the high pressure fuel lines. Do not bend or strike the high pressure fuel lines. Deformation or damage of the high pressure fuel lines may cause a point of weakness and potential failure.
Do not check the high pressure fuel lines with the engine or the starting motor in operation. After the engine has stopped, you must wait for 10 minutes in order to allow the fuel pressure to be purged from the high pressure fuel lines before any service or repair is performed on the engine fuel lines.
Do not loosen the high pressure fuel lines in order to remove air from the fuel system. This procedure is not required.

Electrical System
Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or battery circuit cable from the battery when the charging unit is operating. A spark can cause the combustible gases that are produced by some batteries to ignite.
Grounding Practices
To help prevent sparks from igniting combustible gases that are produced by some batteries, the negative “” cable should be connected last from the external power source to the primary position for grounding.
Check the electrical wires daily for wires that are loose or frayed. Tighten all loose electrical connections before the engine is started. Repair all frayed electrical wires before the engine is started. See the Operation and Maintenance Manual for specic starting instructions.

Conguration Parameters
The engine electronic control module (ECM) has two types of conguration parameters. The system conguration parameters and the customer specied parameters.
The electronic service tool is required in order to alter the conguration parameters.
System Conguration Parameters
System conguration parameters affect the emissions of the engine or the power of the engine. System conguration parameters are programmed at the factory. Normally, system conguration parameters would never require changing through the life of the engine. System conguration parameters must be reprogrammed if an ECM is replaced. System conguration parameters do not require reprogrammed if the ECM software is changed. Factory passwords are required to change these parameters.

The temperature of the exhaust gas and the temperature of the exhaust system compo­nents can reach up to 650 °C (1202 °F) during regeneration. An unexpected failure of the engine or an unexpected failure of the aftertreatment system may increase temperature at the diesel particulate lter to as high as 900 °C (1652 °F) gas temperature. This may result in re, burn, or explosion hazards, which may result in personal injury or death. Do not expose ammable material or explosive atmospheres to exhaust gas or to exhaust system components during regeneration.
Regeneration
Regeneration is the removal of soot from the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The Aftertreatment Regeneration Device (ARD) is used to regenerate the DPF. The DPF traps both soot and ash. The ash is removed through a manual cleaning process. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Diesel Particulate Filter - Clean” for more information on the service of the DPF.

Engine applications
Recommendations from your Perkins dealer or your Perkins distributor are based on past proven practices. The information that is contained in this section provides guidelines for cold-weather operation.
Hints for Cold Weather Operation
If the engine will start, operate the engine until a
minimum operating temperature of 80° C (176° F) is achieved. Achieving operating temperature will help prevent the intake valves and exhaust valves from sticking.
The cooling system and the lubrication system
for the engine do not lose heat immediately upon shutdown. This means that an engine can be shut down for a period and the engine can still have the ability to start readily.
Do not use aerosol types of starting aids such as ether. Such use could result i n an explosion and personal injury.
Forjumpstartingwithcablesincoldweather,
refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Starting with Jump Start Cables.” for instructions.
Viscosity of the Engine Lubrication Oil
Correct engine oil viscosity is essential. Oil viscosity affects the amount of torque that is needed to crank the engine. Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Fluid Recommendations” for the recommended viscosity of oil.
Recommendations for the Coolant
Provide cooling system protection for the lowest expected outside temperature. Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Fluid Recommendations” for the recommended coolant mixture.

Glycol
Glycol in the coolant helps to provide protection against the following conditions:
Boiling
Freezing
Cavitation of the water pump
For optimum performance, Perkins recommends a 1:1 mixture of a water/glycol solution.
Note: Use a mixture that will provide protection against the lowest ambient temperature.
Note: 100 percent pure glycol will freeze at a temperature of 23 °C (9°F).
Most conventional antifreezes use ethylene glycol. Propylene glycol may also be used. In a 1:1 mixture with wat similar protection against freezing and boiling. Refer to Table 10 and refer to table 11.

The chemical li
mits were developed in order to maintain the expected life of the engine aftertreatment system. The performance of the engine aftert
reatment system can be adversely
affected if oil that is not specied in table 18 is used.
Thelifeofyo
ur Aftertreatment system is dened by the accumulation of ash on the surface of the lter. Ash is the inert part of the particulate matter. The system is de
signed in order to collect this particulate matter. There is a very small percentage of particulate matter that is left behind as the soot is burnt. This matter will
eventually block the lter, causing loss of performance and increased fuel consumption. Most of the ash comes from the engine oil which is gradually
consumed during normal operation. This ash is passes through the exhaust. To meet the designed life of the product, the use of the appropriate engine oil
is essential. The oil specication that is
listed in table 18 has low ash content.

affected by the use of biodiesel. Use oil analysis in order to m
onitor the condition of the engine oil. Use oil analysis also in order to determine the oil change interval that is optimum.

Supplemental heat is recommended for cold soaked starts below the minimum ambient temperature. Supplemental heat may be required for cold soaked starts that are above the minimum temperature that is stated, depending on the parasitic load and other factors. C old soaked starts occur wh en the engine has not been operated for a period of time. This interval will allow the oil to become more viscous due to cooler am bient temperatures.

Aftermarket Oil Additives
Perkins does not recommend the use of aftermarket additives in oil. It is not necessary to use aftermarket additives in order to achieve the engines maximum service life or rated performance. Fully formulated, nished oils consist of base oils and of commercial additive packages. These additive packages are blended into the base oils at precise percentages in order to help provide nished oils with performance characteristics that meet industry standards.
There are no industry standard tests that evaluate the performance or the compatibility of aftermarket additives in nished oil. Aftermarket additives may not be compatible with the nished oils additive package, which could lower the performance of the nished oil. The aftermarket additive could fail to mix with the nished oil. This failure could produce sludge in the crankcase. Perkins discourages the use of aftermarket additives in nished oils.
To achieve the best performance from a Perkins engine, conform to the following guidelines:
See the appropriate “Lubricant Viscosities”. Refer

Visc
Viscosity is the property of a liquid of offering

The visco
sity of the fuel is signicant because fuel serves as a lubricant for the fuel system components. Fuel must have sufcient viscosity in order to lubricate the fuel

To relieve the pressure from the fuel system, turn off the engine.
High Pressure Fuel Lines
Contact with high pressure fuel may cause uid penetration and burn hazards. High pressure fu­el spray may cause a re hazard. Failure to fol­low these inspe ction, maintenance and service in­structions may cause personal injury or death.
The high pressure fuel lines are the fuel lines that are between the high pressure fuel pump and the high pressure fuel manifold and the fuel lines that are between the fuel manifold and cylinder head. These fuel lines are different from fuel lines on other fuel systems.
This is because of the following differences:
The high pressure fuel lines are constantly charged
with high pressure.
Proper welding procedures are necessary in order to avoid damage to the engines ECM, sensors, and associated components. When possible, remove the component from the unit and then weld the component. If removal of the component is not possible, the following procedure must be followed when you weld on a unit equipped with an Electronic Engine. The following procedure is considered to be the safest procedure to weld on a component. This procedure should provide a minimum risk of damage to electronic components.
ICE
NOT Do not ground the welder to electrical components such as the ECM or sensors. Improper grounding can
use damage to the drive train bearings, hydraulic
ca components, electrical components, and other com­ponents.
Clamp the ground cable from the welder to the com­ponent that will be welded. Place the clamp as close

4. Inspect the cooling system for leaks.
NOTICE Do not exceed the recommended amount of sup­plemental coolant additive concentration. Excessive supplemental coolant additive concentration can form deposits on the higher temperature surfaces of the cooling system, reducing the engine's heat transfer characteristics. Reduced heat transfer could cause cracking of the cylinder head and other high temper­ature components. Excessive supplemental coolant additive concentration could also result in radiator tube blockage, overheating, and/or accelerated water pump seal wear. Never use both liquid supplemental coolant additive and the spin-on element (if equipped) at the same time. The use of those additives together could result in supplemental coolant additive concen­tration exceeding the recommended maximum.
