When working on the engine, for example when adjusting drive belts and the clutch, or when changing the
oil, it is important not to start the engine. The engine could be damaged, but more importantly there is a
serious risk of injury.
For this reason, always secure the starting device or disconnect a battery cable before working on the engine.
This is especially important if the engine has a remote starter or automatic starting.
This warning symbol and text can be found next to those inspection points where it is particularly important
to bear in mind the risk of injury.

This Operator's Manual describes the operation
and inspection of Scania industrial engines.
The engines are direct-injection, liquid-cooled,
four-stroke, turbocharged diesel engines. Certain
engines are also equipped with an SCR system
for emission control.
The engines are available with different output
and engine speed settings. The normal output
setting of the engine (performance code) is indicated on the engine data plate.
Only standard components are described in the
operator's manual. Information about special
equipment is contained in instructions from the
various manufacturers.
Introduction
To ensure the maximum performance and the
longest service life for the engine remember the
following:
•Read through the Operator's Manual before
starting to use the engine. Even regular users
of Scania engines will get new information
from the Operator's Manual.
•Always follow the inspection instructions.
•Read the section on safety carefully.
•Get to know your engine so that you know
what it can do and how it works.
•Always contact a workshop with qualified
personnel for inspection and repair.
The information in this manual was correct at the
time of going to press. Scania reserves the right
to make alterations without prior notice.
Scania develops and produces engines that are as
environmentally-friendly as possible. Scania has
made major investments in the reduction of
harmful exhaust emissions in order to fulfil the
environmental requirements in force in almost
every market.
At the same time, we have been able to maintain
a high level of performance and operating economy for Scania Industrial and Marine Engines.
To maintain these throughout the entire service
life of the engine, it is important for the user to
follow the instructions on running, inspection
and fuel and lubricating oil as outlined in the Operator's Manual.
Other green initiatives taken include ensuring
that, following inspection and repair, waste that
is harmful to the environment (for example oil,
fuel, coolant, filters and batteries) is disposed of
accordance with the applicable environmental
requirements.
Safety
Different types of advisory
Warning!
All advisories preceded by Warning! are very
important. They warn of serious faults and incorrect operation that could lead to personal injury.
Example:
Block the starting device when working on the
engine. If the engine starts unexpectedly, there is
a serious risk of injury.
Important!
Advisories preceded by Important! warn of
faults and incorrect operation that could lead to
equipment being damaged. Example:
For Scania to guarantee that the engine corresponds to its certified configuration, and take responsibility for any damage and injuries that
occur, inspection must be carried out as above.
The following pages contain a summary of the
safety precautions to be complied with when operating and inspecting Scania engines. The
equivalent text can also be found under the relevant inspection point.
To prevent damage to the engine and to ensure
that it runs optimally, follow the instructions in
the warnings and advisories.
If the instructions are not followed, the warranty
can cease to apply.
Property of American Airlines
Note:
Advisories preceded by Note: refer to information important to ensure the best possible operation and functionality. Example:
Leave the engine off for at least 1 minute before
checking the oil level.
Environment
This Operator’s Manual contains specially highlighted text with instructions to help protect the
environment during inspection. Example:
•in the vicinity of flammable or explosive material, e.g. fuel, oils, batteries, chemicals
•when refuelling and in the vicinity of the filling station
•when working on the fuel system
Safety precautions for running the
engine
Daily inspection
Always carry out a visual inspection of the engine and engine compartment before starting the
engine or when the engine has been switched off
after operation.
Refuelling
Never overfill the fuel tank as the fuel needs
space to expand. Also ensure that the filler cap is
properly closed.
During refuelling there is a risk of fire and explosion. The engine must be switched off and smoking is prohibited.
Hazardous gases
Only start the engine in a well ventilated area.
The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide and
nitrogen oxides, which are toxic.
If it is run in an enclosed space, there should be
an effective device to extract exhaust gases and
crankcase gases.
This inspection should be done to detect fuel, oil
or coolant leaks, or anything else that may require corrective action.
Fuel
Use only fuel recommended in the workshop
manual.
The wrong fuel grade can cause breakdowns or
stoppages by causing the injection system to
malfunction. This can cause damage to the engine and, possibly, personal injury.
Property of American Airlines
Starter lock
If the control panel is not fitted with a starter
lock, the engine compartment should be locked
to prevent unauthorised personnel from starting
the engine. Alternatively, a lockable master
switch or battery master switch can be used.
Never use starter gas or similar agents to help
start the engine. This can cause an explosion in
the intake manifold and possible injury.
Running
The engine must not be run in environments
where there is a risk of explosion, as all of the
electrical or mechanical components can generate sparks.
Approaching a running engine always poses a
safety risk. Parts of the body, clothes or dropped
tools can get caught in rotating parts such as the
fan and cause injury. For personal safety all rotating parts and hot surfaces must be fitted with
guards.
Batteries
The batteries contain and form oxyhydrogen gas,
particularly during charging. Oxyhydrogen gas
is flammable and highly explosive.
There must be no smoking, naked flames or
sparks near the batteries or the battery compartment. Incorrect connection of a battery cable or
jump lead can cause a spark, which can cause the
battery to explode.
Chemicals
Most chemicals such as glycol, anti-corrosive
agents, preservative oils and degreasing agents,
are hazardous to health.
Some chemicals, such as preservative oil, are
also flammable.
Safety precautions for handling materials
Fuel and lubricating oil
All fuels and lubricants as well as many chemicals are flammable. Always follow the instructions on the relevant packaging.
The work must be carried out on a cold engine.
Fuel leaks and spillage on hot surfaces can cause
fire.
Store used rags and other flammable materials
safely so as to avoid spontaneous combustion.
Property of American Airlines
Always follow the safety precautions on the relevant packaging.
Store chemicals and other materials which are
hazardous to health in approved containers,
marking them clearly and storing them where
they are inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
Always hand in leftover and used chemicals to
an authorised waste disposal contractor.
Reductant (AdBlue/DEF) is used in the reductant
tank on engines equipped with an SCR system.
Avoid contact with the skin.
If reductant comes in contact with the skin: Wash
with soap and plenty of water. If reductant
splashes in the eyes: Rinse immediately with
plenty of water. Contact a doctor if it is ingested
or causes skin irritations.
Safety precautions for inspection
and repair
Switch off the engine
Always switch off the engine before carrying out
inspections and repairs, unless otherwise indicated.
Hot surfaces and fluids
There is always a risk of sustaining burns when
an engine is hot. Particularly hot parts are exhaust manifolds, turbochargers, oil sumps, hot
coolant and oil in pipes and hoses.
Lift the engine out
Always use the engine lifting eyes. Always
check that lifting devices are in good condition
and are designed to lift the weight.
Optional equipment on the engine can change
the centre of gravity. This means that it may be
necessary to use additional lifting devices to balance the engine correctly and lift it safely.
Make it impossible to start the engine: Remove
any starter key, or cut the power using the main
power switch or battery master switch and lock
them.
Fix a warning plate somewhere appropriate,
showing that work is being carried out on the engine.
Working with a running engine always poses a
safety risk. Parts of the body, clothes or dropped
tools can get caught in rotating parts and cause
injury.
The batteries contain highly corrosive sulphuric
acid. Take care to protect your eyes, skin and
clothes when charging or handling batteries.
Wear protective gloves and goggles.
If sulphuric acid comes in contact with the skin:
Wash with soap and plenty of water. If it gets in
your eyes: Rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention.
Always hand in used batteries to an authorised
waste disposal contractor.
Electrical system
Electric welding
When carrying out welding work on and near the
engine, disconnect the battery and alternator
leads. Pull out the multi-pin connector for the engine control unit as well.
Connect the welding clamp close to the component to be welded. The welding clamp must not
be connected to the engine, or so that the current
can cross a bearing.
When welding is finished:
1.
Connect the alternator and control unit cables first.
2.
Then connect the batteries.
Lubrication system
The engine must be switched off and the power
disconnected using the master switch or battery
master switch before working on the electrical
system. External power supplies to extra equipment on the engine must also be disconnected.
Scania recommends that Scania spare parts are
used for the fuel and electrical systems. Scania
spare parts are designed to minimise the risk of
fire and explosion.
Property of American Airlines
Hot oil can cause burns and skin irritation. Wear
protective gloves and goggles when changing
hot oil.
Make sure that there is no pressure in the lubrication system before starting work on it.
The oil filler cap must always be in place when
starting and running the engine to prevent oil being ejected.
Always hand in used oil to an authorised waste
disposal contractor.
Never open the coolant filler cap when the engine is hot. Hot coolant and steam may spray out
and cause burns.
If the cap has to be opened do it slowly and carefully to release the pressure before removing the
cap. Wear gloves as the coolant is still very hot.
Always hand in used coolant to an authorised
waste disposal contractor.
Environment and safety
Fuel system
Always wear protective goggles when testing injectors. Fuel escaping at high pressure can penetrate tissues and cause serious injury.
Scania recommends that Scania spare parts are
used for the fuel and electrical systems. Scania
spare parts are designed to minimise the risk of
fire and explosion.
Before starting
Ensure that all guards are in place before starting
the engine. Ensure that no tools or other objects
have been left on the engine.
The air filter must be fitted before starting the engine. Otherwise there is a risk of objects being
sucked into the compressor impeller or of injury
if you come into contact with the air filter.
An emissions certified engine fulfils the emissions requirements for a particular range of application.
On each emissions certified engine there is a label which shows which requirements the engine
fulfils. Scania guarantees that each such engine
fulfils the emissions requirements for the range
of application for which it is certified.
The following are required for the certified engine to fulfil the emissions requirements once it
has been taken into service:
•Inspection is to be carried out in accordance
with the instructions in this Operator's Manual.
•The inspection and repair of injection equipment are to be carried out by a qualified
workshop or person.
•The engine may only be modified with equipment that has been approved by Scania.
•Seals may be broken and setting data edited
only once approval has been granted by Scania. Modifications may be made by authorised personnel only.
•Modifications affecting the exhaust and intake systems must be approved by Scania.
Environment and safety
Otherwise, the instructions in the Operator's
Manual for the running and inspection of the engine shall apply. The safety precautions should
be observed.
For Scania to guarantee that the engine corresponds to its certified configuration, and take responsibility for any damage and injuries that
occur, inspection must be carried out as above.

The SCR catalytic converter contains vanadium
pentoxide, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer.
The SCR catalytic converter is fitted in the silencer and does not constitute a health hazard
during normal use and handling.
When carrying out work on the SCR catalytic
converter which may result in exposure to dust,
safety precautions must be taken. Such work includes, for example, opening the silencer machining and scrapping the SCR catalytic
converter.
Safety precautions when working on the SCR
system.
•Inhalation: If dust is inhaled, the person
should be provided with fresh air immediately. Seek medical attention
•Eye contact: Rinse eyes with water immediately. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
•Skin contact: Wash with water and soap. Remove contaminated clothes.
•Ingestion: If large amounts have been ingested, drink plenty of water and induce vomiting. Seek medical attention
Environmental hazards
•Vanadium pentoxide is toxic to water organisms and can cause detrimental long term effects to water environment.
Environmental protection measures
•The SCR catalytic converter is a manufactured article that contains vanadium pentoxide, a hazardous substance. Before disposing
of, or scrapping, a spent SCR catalytic converter, it should be tested for any hazardous
characteristics (ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, acute hazardousness, and toxicity), as
those categories are described in 22 CCR §
66261.30. If the spent SCR catalytic converter exhibits hazardous characteristics and is
being disposed of, it will be considered by the
State of California to be a hazardous waste
subject to Title 22, California Code of Regulations. Before disposing of hazardous waste,
review and follow all pertinent federal and
California requirements.
•Vanadium pentoxide is a listed commercial
chemical product - P120 - pursuant to 22
CCR § 66261.33(e). According to the State of
California, commercial chemical products
that are discarded or intended to be discarded
are hazardous wastes and are subject to all
provisions of Title 22, California Code of
Regulations. Before disposing of vanadium
pentoxide, review and follow all pertinent
federal and California requirements.
•If the SCR catalytic converter is opened for
maintenance, any dust spillages from the catalyst should be collected and tested for the
presence of vanadium pentoxide prior to
proper disposal. Dust spillages should also be
tested for any hazardous characteristics (ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, acute hazardousness, and toxicity), as those categories
are described in 22 CCR § 66261.30, prior to
proper disposal. If the dust contains either vanadium pentoxide or exhibits hazardous characteristics and is being disposed of, it will be
considered by the State of California to be a
hazardous waste subject to Title 22, California Code of Regulations. Before disposing of
hazardous waste, review and follow all pertinent federal and California requirements.
•Do not dispose of the spent SCR catalytic
converter or its constituent parts into any waterways, storm drains or sanitary sewers.
The SCR catalytic converter contains vanadium
pentoxide, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer.
Additional considerations when working on the
SCR system
•Carry out work on the SCR catalytic converter in all well ventilated area. Use protective
goggles and gloves if there is any risk of
splashing or spraying of reductant or coolant.
•When engine is running, the exhaust system
parts can reach such high temperatures that
there is a risk of personal injury. Make sure
that the exhaust system temperature has decreased to a suitable level before starting to
work.
•The SCR system is heated by water from the
engine cooling system. The cooling system
runs at overpressure and when the engine is
hot the coolant is hot. Do not open any hoses
without first stopping the coolant flow in the
hose.
•A P3 type respirator/filter mask or a type
FFP3 fine dust musk, protective goggles and
gloves should be used for any work where
there is a risk of exposure to dust from the
SCR catalytic converter.
•Use a disposable overall and dispose of it
properly after machining.
•Eating, drinking or smoking while working is
not permitted.
•Any dust from the SCR catalytic converter
should be removed using a vacuum cleaner
with microfilter to minimize exposure.
•Make sure that the work surface is cleaned after completed work; Vacuum first then swab.
•Make sure you clean your hands after working with SCR catalytic converter to avoid ingestion.
•Work done on the SCR catalytic converter
may generate waste considered by the State
of California to be a hazardous waste subject
to Title 22, California Code of Regulations.
Before disposing of hazardous waste, review
and follow all pertinent federal and California
requirements.

Starting and running
3.
If the engine has a battery master switch:
Switch on the power by means of the battery
master switch.
4.
Start the engine.
If the fuel tank has been run dry or if the engine
has not been used for a long time, bleed the fuel
system.
Never use starter gas or similar agents to help
start the engine. An explosion may occur in the
intake manifold with a risk of personal injury.
Only start the engine in a well ventilated area.
When the engine is run in an enclosed space,
there must be effective devices to extract exhaust
gases and crankcase gases.
Running the engine without reductant in the reductant tank violates emissions legislation and
will damage the SCR system.
Checks before running
Carry out a daily inspection as described in the
inspection schedule prior to operation. See the
Inspection section.
Block the starting device when working on the
engine. If the engine starts unexpectedly, there is
a serious risk of injury.
Starting the engine
For environmental reasons the Scania engine has
been developed to be started with a low fuel feed.
Using unnecessarily large amounts of fuel when
starting the engine always results in emissions of
unburnt fuel.

The starter motor must only be cranked twice for
30 seconds at a time. After that, it must rest for at
least 5 minutes before the next attempt to start it.
Starting at low temperatures and at
high altitudes
Take the local environmental requirements into
account. Use a fuel heater and engine heater to
avoid starting problems and white smoke.
Scania recommends that an engine heater should
be used if the engine will be used at temperatures
below -10°C or at an altitude of more than 2,000
metres.
A low engine speed and a moderate load on a
cold engine limits white smoke, gives better
combustion and warms up the engine more
quickly than warming it up with no load.
Avoid running it longer than necessary at idling
speed.
Check instruments and warning lamps at regular
intervals.
Engine speed range
600-750 rpm Low idling. Engine idling is controlled by the engine management system.
Low idling up to 2,100 rpm Engine operating speed range. Controlled by the engine management sys-
tem.
2,100-2,600 rpmUnsuitable operating speed, but a slightly higher engine speed than the nor-
mal maximum operating speed may occur when load is low or negative.
2,600-3,000 rpmProhibited engine speed.
Emission control
The system provides a warning if there are faults
on the SCR system or if the level of reductant in
the reductant tank is too low. In the case of some
faults, for example if doser cooling is not working, the torque is reduced.
