Your e ngine needs clean Diese l oil of standard make . (2) Your engine needs lubricating oil of corre ct grade .
Maintain the corre ct oil le vel in sump. (3) Your engine needs abundant clean air. Engine Room should be we ll
ventilated. Keep air cleane r clean. (4) Your engine needs genuine spare parts for its mainte nance . (5) Your
engine needs regular cleaning, oiling and attention. (6) Your engine nee ds tightening of all nuts after an initial
run of 20 hours. Avoid ove rloading the e ngine.
FOUNDA TIONS: The engine should always be installe d on a good cement concre te foundation block . The
composition for concre te mix ture is 1:2:4. Afte r pouring, the concre te should be allowed to se t for at. least
three days before engine is bolted down, in ve ry hot & dry climate , the block should be moistened with wate r
during this se tting pe riod. W ith made up ground, soft wate r logged or poor sandy s the size ñ the concre te
block be suitably modified.
ERECTION: The Engine should be leve led up on foundation Block by placing thin me tal strip unde r the engine
fee t just close to the foundation bolts.
In case of a coupled se t, drive n unit must be lined up with the e ngine and joined through a flexible coupling.
In case of belt driven unit the driving be lt must run as close up to the Flywhee l as possible to avoid undue
strain on bearings and crankshaft. W he re ‘fast’ and ‘loose’ pulle ys are used, the ‘fast’ pulle y must be nearest
to the flywhee l.
An incorre ctly installed e ngine may give endless trouble.
EXHA UST SYSTEM: A standard engine is fitted with an exhaust silence r. If the exhaust piping be extende d to
the out side of the building up to a length of 3 me te rs, the exhaust silence r can be fitte d on the end of iron
pipe scre w 1 Y2” BSP.
If exhaust system is longe r, following pipe size is re commended.
Pipe line : Up to 3 me te r — 38.0mm (1 ‘, 4”) Bore
3to 6 mete r — 50.8 mm (2”) bore
6 to 10 mete rs — 63.5 mm (2½”) bore ove r
0 mete rs — 76.Omm (3”) bore
Howe ve r, the exhaust system is as short as possible with a minimum numbe r of be nds and must be e re cte d in
easily de tachable se ctions to facilitate cleaning during ove rhaul. Ne ve r embe d in concre te . The faulty system
can se riously reduce the powe r of the e ngine.
RUN THROUGH SYSTE M OF COOLING: Conne ct the inle t conne ction from the delive ry of the pump to the
wate r inle t on cylinde r block . C onne ct suitable length of pipe to the wate r outle t on cylinde r head for disposal
of run through wate r.
FUEL SUPPLY:
(1) Type of fue l: Use clean Light Diese l O il confirm ing the spe cification to B.S. No, 209-1947 class an
ISO: 1460-1974. Insist on purchasing the fuel from authorized deale rs of the oil companies. Avoid supply of
residue oil or blend the reof Vaporizing Oils are unsuitable as fue l for this engine, he nce avoid admix during
Ke rose ne or pe trol with LDO.
(2) The fue l oil system includes the following fitments for e nsuring cleanliness and conseque nt dependable
se rvice of fuel inje ction equipments for a long pe riod.
(i) Fue l oil straine r with the tank is the primary filte r to remove the fore ign matte rs. Always make sure
that the fue l oil straine r is in position. The fue l tank should be full at the end of the day’s work to avoid the
condensation of moisture from air in empty tank due to cold at night and to give time for settling any
sediments be fore the engine is used again. Clean thoroughly the tank afte r eve ry 250 hours (monthly) and
straine r e ve ry alte rnate day by tapping on woode n block .
(ii) Fue l Oil Filte r: The filte r is fitted with 3 ply cotton braided e lement. Clean the e lements afte r e ve ry
250 hours run by washing in clean paraffin of fue l oil without removing from the cove r.
C lean fue l is of the utmost importance in maintaining a high standard of pe rformance .
LUBRICA TION: The guarantee of the engine pe rformance and durability is ope rative with the following or
equivalent heavy duty Diese l Engine (De te rgent) Lubricating oils of the standard oil company. For Guidance of
the consume rs, we give be low the proprie tary brands of Lubricating oil to be use d according to diffe rent
tempe rature conditions:
(1) Drain the sump oil when the engine is hot and replace the drain plug. (2) C lean the sump chambe r with
clean cotton waste . (3) Pour the flushing oil of the standard company or 5 lite rs quantity. (4) Run the e ngine
on the light load for about 15 minutes. (5) Drain the flushing oil. Clean the chambe r. (6) Pour the corre ct
grade of lube O il in the sump of the crank case up to the top mark or 5 lite rs quantity.
The engine is now ready for ope ration.
Drained flushing oil should be stored neatly for re use at the time of nex t change of lubricating oil.
IMPORTA NT: Do not m ix up the diffe rent grades of lube. O il. Cheap, unsuitable or dirty oil will cause trouble
and doe s immeasurable harm to the engine .
TO STOP ENGINE: (1) Lift Gove rnor hand le ve r. (2) When Engine is about to stop engage valve lifte r. (3)
Engine should ne ve r be stopped by shutting the fuel supply or lifting the Exhaust valve alone .
SPEED REGULA TION: To increase the speed turn the adjusting nut in clock wise dire ction. And to reduce the
spee d, turn nut in opposite dire ction. Use rs are advised not to increase the speed ove r the rated one.
WOR KING TEMPER ATUR E: The lowe r portion of the engine (crank case ) will ge t hot afte r it has worked for
some time . Engine owne r need not be worried about this. The engine should run hot for e fficient pe rfor
mance . The heat will be so much as not to allow the ope rator to keep his palm on crank case .
FAILUR E TO START OR RUN PROPER LY
TIP O F EASY STARTING: (ESSENTIALS)
1. Engine must turn easily when de compressed, if not, Che ck that valve lifte r is corre ctly adjusted.
2. Inje ction creak m is heard. If not, the cause may be one or more as unde r:
No Fue l oil in tank .
Air lock in fue l system.
Fue l Pump de live ry valve seat damaged.
Fue l Filte r is choked.
3. C ompression should be good on high compre ssion ratio. If not che ck for the following (i) we ar on the
cylinde r (ii) Piston rings worn out or carboned in groove s (ii) Leakages through inle t or Exhaust valve. (iv)
Fue l pump rack has free movement.
KNOCKING:
This may be caused by the following
(1) Valve probably Ex haust sticking in guide and hitting piston — C lean valve stem and guide. (2) Loose
bearings — fit corre ctly. (3) Insufficient clearance be twee n piston and cylinde r head — Che ck and adjust. (4)
Inje ction too early and or inje ction pre ssure high — che ck and adjust. (5) Loose flywhee l on crankshaft
drive tape r keys tightly. (6) Imprope r fue l oil — che ck and rene w.
C AR BO N DEPOSITIO N:
Ex ce ssive carbon deposition may be due to:
(1) Chocke d Ex haust system — dismantle and clean. (2) R unning ove rcoole d be cause of ex ce ssive supply of
cooling wate r. (3) Fue l oil not of standard make . (4) Lubricating oil of lowe r grade. (5) Inje ction not spraying
corre ctly — che ck and replace Nozzle. (6) Tim ings adjusted for late Inje ction of fue l. (7) Ex cessive exhaust
back pre ssure .
SMOKY EXHA UST:
The exhaust should be clear at full load. If it is not, take ste p to clear it. Black smoke is due to incomple te
combustion of fue l, caused by the following reasons.
(1) Ex cess load resulting into extra quantity of fue l to be inje cted. (2) Air intake chocked. (3) Inje ctor nozzle
chocked — Re sult: Poor spray. (4) Fue l oil not of standard grade. (5) Whe n the faint black smoke is caused,
which is gene rally due to low load or ove r load. Heavy blue smoke is the result of lubricating oil passing
through the piston rings due to carboned in grooves or worn cylinde r.
ENGINE STOPS:
(1) If fuel tank is empty. (2) If fue l inje ction system ge ts wate red or air locked. If the fue l inje ction system is
chocked. (3) If ove r loaded. (4) If ove r heated due to shortage of cooling wate r or lubricating oil.
LOSS OF POWER:
May be due to the following reasons:
(1) Loss of compression. (2) Tappe t clearance hot corre ct. (3) Exhaust pipe chocke d. (4) Fue l inje ction system
or fuel pump out of oi or timings are not adjusted. (5) Air cleane r chocked.
FAILUR E TO O BTAINED NOR MAL SPEED:
(1) Engine started with ove rload. (2) Bearing not prope rly fitte d or too right. (3) Insufficient fue l. (4) Inje ction
re tarded.
COOLING: In the place whe re the wate r is impure , the jacke t, around the cylinde r line r and inside the
cylinde r head should be freed from any-deposits.
To remove hard deposit from cylinde r wate r jacke t, fill it with a solution of washing soda in the proportion of 1
Kg. of Soda to 5 Lite rs of wate r than wash out the Jacke t with fresh wate r.
TO R EASSEMBLE: (a) Re fit Piston and Conne cting Rod, noting numbe r marked on Big end bearing and
dire ction the dippe r faces. (b) Put pape r C ylinde r Block Joints equal to numbe rs remove d. Place a flat bar
across C rank case close on Conne cting Rod and bring Piston skirt firm ly down on to it. (c) Apply oil to the
piston rings and stagge r the gaps. Place Piston R ing clamp in position and compress rings. The Clamp should
close quite easily. Howe ve r when force is required to fit the rings. It is be tte r to take it off and try again.
(d) Apply oil to the cylinde r bore , lift cylinde r block ove r studs and lowe r into position pushing down Piston
R ings as far as possible unde rneath the piston. (e) Rotate crankshaft to move Piston up into C ylinde r. (f)
Support C ylinde r Block . Remove Piston R ing clamp and flat bar and allow C ylinde r Block
To drop into position afte r removing support. (g) Assemble C ylinde r Head.

FUEL INJECTOR
In case of trouble with fuel Inje ction, clean the nozzle . As the clean fuel ensures the trouble free functioning of
the Engine . Inje ctor be se t at pressure shown against each engine in the Te chnical Data. A faulty Inje ction
may re sult in one or more of the following.
(a) Smok y exhaust (Black ) (b) Loss of Powe r (c) O ve rheating of Engine. (d) Knock ing in the C ylinde r.
(e ) Fuel consumption more.
Once the Gene ral principle of the diese l inje ction e quipment has been grasped fault-tracing .is easy. To de te ct
the troubles, che ck ing is essential.
To che ck the nozzle, remove it from C ylinde r Head and conne ct it to fue l inje ction pipe . With the nozzle

SUCTION STROKE:—
During the downward motion of the piston, the .air inle t Valve opens and the fresh air from atmosphere is
sucked into cylinde r through air cleane r.
COMPRESSION STROKE:—
During compression stroke both valves remain closed and piston moves up, with the result that, air inside the
cylinde r is compressed to a ve ry high pressure , which de velop tempe rature rise enough to ignite the fue l. Just
be fore the piston reaches the top position a ve ry small quantity of fue l is inje cte d through nozzle. The
inje ction pressure causes the fue l to discharge in theform of fine spray.
WORKING STROKE:—
The fue l inje cted at the end of compression stroke mixes thoroughly with hot air and ge ts ignite d due to high
tempe rature. This combustion occuring inside the combustion chambe r causes furthe r rise in tempe rature and
pre ssure with the e ffe ct the piston is force d down.
