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.
To help prevent sparks from igniting combustible gases that are produced by some batteries, the negative “” jump start cable should be connected last from the external power source to the negative “” terminal of the starting motor. If the starting motor is not equipped with a negative “” terminal, connect thejumpstartcabletotheengineblock.
Check the electrical wires daily for wires that are loose or frayed. Tighten all loose electrical wires before the engine is started. Repair all frayed electrical wires before the engine is started. See the Operation and Maintenance Manual for specific starting instructions.
Grounding Practices
Correct grounding for the engine electrical system is necessary for optimum engine performance and reliability. Incorrect grounding will result in uncontrolled electrical circuit paths and in unreliable electrical circuit paths.
Uncontrolled electrical circuit paths can result in damage to main bearings, to crankshaft bearing journal surfaces, and to aluminum components.
Engines that are installed without engine-to-frame ground straps can be damaged by electrical discharge.
To ensure that the engine and the engine electrical systems function correctly, an engine-to-frame ground strap with a direct path to the battery must be used. This path may be provided by way of a direct engine ground to the frame.
All grounds should be tight and free of corrosion. The engine alternator must be grounded to the negative “-” battery terminal with a wire that is adequate to handle the full charging current of the alternator.

Note: In temperatures from 0 to 60°C (32 to 140°F),
the warm-up time is approximately three minutes. In temperatures below 0°C (32°F), additional warm-up time may be required.
When the engine idles during warm-up, observe the following conditions:
Check for any uid or for any air leaks at idle rpm
and at one-half full rpm (no load on the engine) before operating the engine under load. This is not possible in some applications.
Operate the engine at low idle until all systems
achieve operating temperatures. Check all gauges during the warm-up period.
Note: Gauge readings should be observed and the data should be recorded frequently while the engine is operating. Comparing the data over time will help to determine normal readings for each gauge.Comparingdataovertimewillalsohelp detect abnormal operating developments. Signicant changes in the readings should be investigated.

Stopping the Engine
NOTICE Stopping the engine immediately after it has been working under load, can result in overheating and ac­celerated wear of the engine components.
Avoid accelerating the engine prior to shutting it down.
Avoiding hot engine shutdowns will maximize tur­bocharger shaft and bearing life.
Note: Individual applications will have different control systems. Ensure that the shutoff procedures are understood. Use the following general guidelines in order to stop the engine.
1. Remove the load from the engine. Reduce the
engine speed (rpm) to low idle. Allow the engine to idle for ve minutes in order to cool the engine.
2. Stop the engine after the cool down period
according to the shutoff system on the engine and turn the ignition key switch to the OFF position. If necessary, refer to the instructions that are provided by the OEM.

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 81 °C (177.8 °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 downforaperiodoftimeandtheenginecanstill 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.

The following fuels can be used in this series of engine.
Group 1
Group 2
Group 3
Special Fuels
Perkins prefer only Group 1 and Group 2 fuels for use in this series of engines.
Group 1 fuels are the preferred Group of Fuels for general use by Perkins. Group 1 fuels maximize engine life and engine performance. Group 1 fuels are usually less available than Group 2 fuels. Frequently, Group 1 fuels are not available in colder climates during the winter.
Note: Group 2 fuels must have a maximum wear scar of 650 micrometers (HFRR to ISO 12156-1).
Group 2 fuels are considered acceptable for issues of warranty. This group of fuels may reduce the life of the engine, the engine’s maximum power, and the engine’s fuel efciency.

Commercial Oils
The performance of commercial diesel engine oils is based on American Petroleum Institute (API) classications. These API classications are developed in order to provide commercial lubricants for a broad range of diesel engines that operate at various conditions.
Only use commercial oils that meet the following classications:
EMA DHD-1 multigrade oil (pre ferred oil)
API CH-4 multigrade oil (preferred oil)
ACEAE5
In order to make the correct choice of a commercial oil, refer to the following explanations:
EMA DHD-1 – The Engine Manufacturers Association (EMA) has developed lubricant recommendations as an alternative to the API oil classication system. DHD-1 is a Recommended Guideline that denes a level of oil performance for these types of diesel engines: high speed, four stroke cycle, heavy-duty, and light duty. DHD-1 oils may be used in Perkins engines when the following oils are recommended: API CH-4, API CG-4, and API CF-4. DHD-1 oils are intended to provide superior performance in comparison to API CG-4 and API CF-4.
DHD-1 oils will meet the needs of high performance Perkins diesel engines that are operating in many applications. The tests and the test limits that are used to dene DHD-1 are similar to the new API CH-4 classication. Therefore, these oils will also meet the requirements for diesel engines that require low emissions. DHD-1 oils are designed to control the harmful effects of soot with improved wear resistance and improved resistance to plugging of the oil lter. These oils will also provide superior control of piston deposits for engines with either two-piece steel pistons or aluminum pistons.
All DHD-1 oils must complete a full test program with the base stock and with the viscosity grade of the nishedcommercialoil.Theuseof“APIBase Oil Interchange Guidelines” are not appropriate for DHD-1 oils.

Lubricant Viscosity Recommendations
The correct SAE viscosity grade of oil is determined by the minimum ambient temperature during cold engine start-up, and the maximum ambient temperature during engine operation.
Refer to Table 26 (minimum temperature) in order to determine the required oil viscosity for starting a cold engine.
Refer to Table 26 (maximum temperature) in order to select the oil viscosity for engine operation at the highest ambient temperature that is anticipated.
Generally, use the highest oil viscosity that is available to meet the requirement for the temperature at start-up.

Automotive applications
The anti-corrosion package for ELC is different from the anti-corrosion package for other coolants. ELC is an ethylene glycol base coolant. However, ELC contains organic corrosion inhibitors and antifoam agents with low amounts of nitrite. Perkins ELC has been formulated with the correct amount of these additives in order to provide superior corrosion protection for all metals in engine cooling systems.
ELC is available in a 1:1 premixed cooling solution with distilled water. The Premixed ELC provides freeze protection to 36 °C (33 °F). The Premixed ELC is recommended for the initial ll of the cooling system. The Premixed ELC is also recommended for topping off the cooling system.
Containers of several sizes are available. Consult your Perkins distributor for the part numbers.

Fuel should also m eet the minimum viscosity requirement and the fuel should meet the maximum viscosity requirements at 40 °C (104 °F) of either the “ASTM D445” test method or the “ISO 3104” test method. If a fuel with a low viscosity is used, cooling of the fuel may be required to maintain 1.4 cSt or greater viscosity at the fuel injection pump.

Density
Density is the mass of the fuel per unit volume at a specicte
mperature. This parameter has a direct inuence on engine performance and a direct inuence on emissions. This determines the heat output from a
given injected volume of fuel. This is generally quoted in the following kg/m at 15 °C (59 °F).
Perkins recommends a value of density of 841 kg/m in order to obtain the correct power output. Lighter fuels are acc

By using the test methods “ASTM D5453, ASTM D2622, or ISO 20846 ISO 20884”, the content of sulfur in low sulfur diesel (LSD) fuel must be below 500 PPM 0.05%. By using the test methods “ASTM D5453, ASTM D2622, or ISO 20846 ISO 20884”, the content of sulfur in ultra low sulfur (ULSD) fuel must be below 15 PPM 0.0015%. The lubricity of these fuels must not exceed wear scar diameter of
0.46 mm (0.0181 inch). The fuel lubricity test must be performed on a HFRR, operated at 60 °C (140 °F). Refer to “ISO 12156-1 ”.
In some parts of the world and for some applications, high sulfur fuels above 0.5% by mass might only be available. Fuel with very high sulfur content can cause engine wear. High sulfur fuel will have a negative impact on emissions of particulates. High sulfur fuel can be used provided that the local emissions legislation will allow the use. High sulfur fuel can be used in countries that do not regulate emissions.
When only high sulfur fuels are available, it will be necessary that high alkaline lubricating oil is used in the engine or that the lubricating oil change interval is reduced. Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Fliud Recommendations (Genernal Lubrication Information)” for information on sulfur in fuel.

Mixing alcohol or gasoline with diesel fuel can pro­duce an explosive mixture in the engine crankcase or the fuel tank. Alcohol or gasoline must not be used in order to dilute diesel fuel. Failure to follow this instruction may result in death or personal in­jury.
There are many other diesel fuel specications that are published by governments and by technological societies. Usually, those specications do not review all the requirements that are addressed in tables 36, 37 and 38. To ensure optimum engine performance, a complete fuel analysis should be obtained before engine operation. The fuel analysis should include all of the properties that are stated in the tables 36, 37 and 38.
Fuel Additive
Supplemental diesel fuel additives are not generally recommended. This is due to potential damage to the fuel system or the engine. Your fuel supplier or the fuel manufacturer will add the appropriate supplemental diesel fuel additives.
Perkins recognizes the fact that additives may be required in some special circumstances. Fuel additives need to be used with caution. The additive may not be compatible with the fuel. Some additives may precipitate. This action causes deposits in the fuel system. The deposits may cause seizure. Some additives may be corrosive, and some additives may be harmful to the elastomers in the fuel system. Some additives may raise fuel sulfur levels above the maximum that is allowed by the EPA or the other regulatory agencies. Contact your fuel supplier for those circumstances when fuel additives are required. Your fuel supplier can recommend the appropriate fuel additive and the correct level of treatment.
Note: For the best results, your fuel supplier should treat the fuel when additives are required. The treated fuel must meet the requirements that are stated in tables 36, 37 and 38.

Inspection
To maximize the engine performance, inspect the belts for wear and for cracking. Replace belts that are worn or damaged.
For applications that require multiple drive belts, replace the belts in matched sets. Replacing only one belt of a matched set will cause the new belt to carry more load because the older belt is stretched. The additional load on the new belt could cause the new belt to break.
If the belts are too loose, vibration causes unnecessary wear on the belts and pulleys. Loose belts may slip enough to cause overheating.
To accurately check the belt tension, a suitable gauge should be used.

When the engine is not run for long periods of time or when the engine is run for short periods, the batteries may not fully recharge. Ensure a full charge in order to help prevent the battery from freezing. If batteries are correctly charged, the ammeter reading should be very near zero, when the engine is in operation.
All lead-acid batteries contain sulfuric acid which can burn the skin and clothing. Always wear a face shield and protective clothing when working on or near batteries.
1. Remove the ller caps. Maintain the electrolyte
level to the “FULL” mark on the battery.
If the addition of water is necessary, use distilled water. If distilled water is not available use clean water that is low in minerals. Do not use articially softened water.

Engine Air Cleaner Element (Dual Element) - Clean/Replace
Cleaning the Primary Air Cleaner Elements
NOTICE Perkins recommends certied air lter cleaning ser­vices that are available at Perkins dealers. The Perkins cleaning process uses proven procedures to assure consistent quality and sufcient lter life.
Observe the following guidelines if you attempt to clean the lter element:
Do not tap or strike the lter element in order to re­move dust.
Do not wash the lter element.
Use low pressure compressed air in order to remove the dust from the lter element. Air pressure must not exceed 207 kPa (30 psi). Direct the air ow up the pleats and down the pleats from the inside of the lter element. Take extreme care in order to avoid damage to the pleats.
Do not use air lters with damaged pleats, gaskets, or seals. Dirt entering the engine will cause damage to engine components.
Pressurized Ai
Pressurized air can be used to clean primary air cleaner eleme than two times. Pressurized air will not remove deposits of carbon and oil. Use ltered, dry air with a maximum pres

sure of 207 kPa (30 psi).
g00281692
The primary air cleaner element can be used up to six times if the element is properly cleaned and inspected. When the primary air cleaner element is cleaned, check for rips or tears in the lter material. The primary air cleaner element should be replaced at least one time per year. This replacement should be performed regardless of the number of cleanings.
Use clean primary air cleaner elements while dirty elements are being cleaned.
NOTICE Do not clean the air cleaner elements by bumping or tapping. This could damage the seals. Do not use el­ements with damaged pleats, gaskets or seals. Dam­aged elements will allow dirt to pass through. Engine damage could result.
Visually inspect the primary air cleaner elements before cleaning. Inspect the air cleaner elements for damage to the seal, the gaskets, and the outer cover. Discard any damaged air cleaner elements.
There are two common methods that are used to clean primary air cleaner elements:
Aim the hose so that the air ows inside the element along the length of the lter in order to help prevent damage to the paper pleats. Do not aim the stream of air directly at the primary air cleaner element. Dirt could be forced further into the pleats.
Note: Refer to “Inspecting the Primary Air Cleaner Elements”.
Vacuum Cleaning
Vacuum cleaning is a good method for cleaning primary air cleaner elements which require daily cleaning because of a dry, dusty environment. Cleaning with pressurized air is recommended prior to vacuum cleaning. Vacuum cleaning will not remove deposits of carbon and oil.
Note: Refer to “Inspecting the Primary Air Cleaner Elements”.

Fuel Tank
Fuel quality is critical to the performance and to the service life of the engine. Water in the fuel can cause excessive wear to the fuel system.
Water can be introduced into the fuel tank when the fuel tank is being lled.
Condensation occurs during the heating and cooling of fuel. The condensation occurs as the fuel passes through the fuel system and the fuel returns to the fuel tank. This causes water to accumulate in fuel tanks. Draining the fuel tank regularly and obtaining fuel from reliable sources can help to eliminate water in the fuel.

Turbocharger - Insp ect (If Equipped)
A regular visual inspection of the turbocharger is recommended. Any fumes from the crankcase are ltered through the air inlet system. Therefore, by-products from oil and from combustion can collect in the turbocharger compressor housing. Over time, this buildup can contribute to loss of engine power, increased black smoke and overall loss of engine efciency.
If the turbocharger fails during engine operation, damage to the turbocharger compressor wheel and/or to the engine may occur. Damage to the turbocharger compressor wheel can cause additional damage to the pistons, the valves, and the cylinder head.
NOTICE Turbocharger bearing failures can cause large quanti­ties of oil to enter the air intake and exhaust systems. Loss of engine lubricant can result in serious engine damage.

art in an emergency situation.
Minor leakage of oil into a turbocharger under extend­ed low idle operation should not cause problems as long as a turbocharger bearing failure has not oc­cured.
When a turbocharger bearing failure is accompanied by a signicant engine performance loss (exhaust smoke or engine rpm up at no load), do not continue engine operation until the turbocharger is renewed.
A visual inspection of the turbocharger can minimize unscheduled downtime. A visual inspection of the turbocharger can also reduce the chance for potential damage to other engine parts.

Note: The turbochargers that are supplied are
nonserviceable.

Walk-Around Inspection
Inspect the Engine for Leaks and for Loose Connections
A walk-around inspection should only take a few minutes. When the time is taken to perform these checks, costly repairs and accidents can be avoided.
For maximum engine service life, make a thorough inspection of the engine compartment before starting the engine. Look for items such as oil leaks or coolant leaks, loose bolts, worn belts, loose connections and trash buildup. Make repairs, as needed:
Note: The water pump seal is lubricated by the coolant in the cooling system. It is normal for a small amount of leakage to occur as the engine cools down and the parts contract.
Excessive coolant leakage may indicate the need to replace the water pump seal. For the removal of the water pump and the installation of water pump and/or seal, refer to the Disassembly and Assembly Manual, “Water Pump - Remove and Install” for more information or consult your Perkins dealer or your Perkins distributor.
Inspect the lubrication system for leaks at the front
crankshaft seal, the rear crankshaft seal, the oil pan, the oil lters and the rocker cover.
Inspect the fuel system for leaks. Look for loose
fuel line clamps and/or tie-wraps.
Inspect the piping for the air intake system and the
elbows for cracks and for loose clamps. Ensure that hoses and tubes are not contacting other hoses, tubes, wiring harnesses, etc.
Inspect the alternator belts and any accessory
drive belts for cracks, breaks or other damage.
