General information
This product may pose a risk of injury or damage in the following cases:
Incorrect use
Operation, maintenance and repair by unqualified personnel
Modifications or conversions
Noncompliance with the safety instructions and warning notices
Correct use
The product is intended exclusively for the application specified in the contract or defined at the time of
delivery.
This means that the equipment must be operated:
Within the permissible operating parameters in accordance with the ( Technical data)
With fluids and lubricants approved by the manufacturer in accordance with the ( Fluids and Lubri-
cants Specifications of the manufacturer)
With spare parts approved by the manufacturer in accordance with the ( Spare Parts Catalog/MTU
contact/Service partner)
In the original as-delivered configuration or in a configuration approved by the manufacturer in writ-
ing (including engine control/parameters)
In compliance with all safety regulations and in adherence with all warning notices in this manual
In accordance with the maintenance requirements over the entire service life of the product ( Main-
tenance Schedule)
In compliance with the maintenance and repair instructions contained in this manual, in particular
with regard to the specified tightening torques
With the exclusive use of technical personnel trained in commissioning, operation, maintenance and
repair
By contracting only workshops authorized by the manufacturer to carry out repair and overhaul
Any other use is considered improper use and increases the risk of personnel injury or material damage
in product operation. The manufacturer will accept no liability for such damage.
Modifications or conversions
Unauthorized modifications to the product compromise safety.
TIM-ID: 0000040530 - 003
The manufacturer will accept no liability or warranty claims for any damage caused by unauthorized
modifications or conversions.
Spare parts
Only genuine spare parts must be used to replace components or assemblies.
The manufacturer will accept no liability or warranty claims for any damage caused by the use of other
spare parts.
Personnel requirements
All work on the product shall be carried out by trained and qualified personnel only.
Training at the Training Center of the manufacturer
Qualified personnel specialized in mechanical and plant engineering
The operator must define the responsibilities of the personnel involved in operation, maintenance, re-
pair and transport.
Ensure that all fuel injection and pressurized oil lines are installed with enough clearance to prevent
contact with other components. Do not place fuel or oil lines near hot components.
Do not touch elastomeric seals if they have carbonized or resinous appearance unless hands are prop-
erly protected.
Note cooling time for components which are heated for installation or removal (risk of burning).
When working high on the equipment, always use suitable ladders and work platforms. Make sure com-
ponents or assemblies are placed on stable surfaces.
Welding work
Welding operations on the product or mounted units are not permitted. Cover the product when welding
in its vicinity.
Before starting welding work:
Switch off the power supply master switch.
Disconnect the battery.
Separate the electrical ground of electronic equipment from the ground of the unit.
No other maintenance or repair work must be carried out in the vicinity of the product while welding is
going on. Risk of explosion or fire due to oil vapors and highly flammable fluids and lubricants.
Do not use product as ground terminal.
Never position the welding power supply cable adjacent to, or crossing wiring harnesses of the product.
The welding current may otherwise induce an interference voltage in the wiring harnesses which could
conceivably damage the electrical system.
Remove parts (e.g. exhaust pipes) which are to be welded from the product beforehand.
Observe the safety instructions of the battery manufacturer when working with batteries.
Gases emanating from the battery are explosive. Avoid sparks and naked flames.
Do not allow electrolyte to come in contact with skin or clothing.
Wear goggles and protective gloves.
Never place tools on the battery.
Before connecting the cable to the battery, check the battery polarity. Battery pole reversal may lead to
injury through the sudden discharge of acid or bursting of the battery body.
Noise
Noise can lead to an increased risk of accidents if it makes it more difficult to hear audible signals,
warning calls or noises indicating danger.
Wear ear protectors in workplaces with a sound pressure level in excess of 85dB (A).
Used oil
Used oil contains combustion residues that are harmful to health.
Rub barrier cream into hands.
Wash hands after contact with used oil.
Compressed air
Observe special safety precautions when working with compressed air:
Unauthorized use of compressed air, e.g. forcing flammable liquids (hazard class AI, AII and B) out of
containers, risks causing an explosion.
Wear goggles when blowing dirt off workpieces or blowing away swarf.
Blowing compressed air into thin-walled containers (e.g. containers made of sheet metal, plastic or
glass) for drying purposes or to check for leaks risks bursting them.
Pay special attention to the pressure in the compressed air system or pressure vessel.
Assemblies or products to be connected must either be designed for that pressure, or, if the permis-
sible pressure is lower than the system pressure, a pressure reducing valve and safety valve (set to
the permissible pressure) must be connected between the assemblies/products and the system.
Hose couplings and connections must be securely attached.
Provide the snout of the air nozzle with a protective disk (e.g. rubber disk).
First shut off compressed air lines before compressed air device is disconnected from the supply
line, or before device or tool is to be replaced.
Carry out leak test in accordance with the specifications.
Liquid nitrogen
Observe the relevant safety data sheet for all materials.
Store liquid nitrogen only in small quantities and always in regulation containers (without gas-tight
caps).
Avoid body contact (eyes, hands).
Wear protective clothing, protective gloves, closed shoes and safety goggles.
Make sure that working area is well ventilated.
Avoid knocking or jolting the containers, valves and fittings or workpieces in any way.
WARNING
In the event of a situation involving potential danger.
Consequences: Death, serious or permanent injury!
Remedial action.
CAUTION
In the event of a situation involving potential danger.
Consequences: Minor or moderate injuries!
Remedial action.
NOTICE
In the event of a situation involving potentially adverse effects on the product.
Consequences: Material damage!
Remedial action.

Note:
The maintenance schedule matrix finishes with extended component maintenance. Following this, main-
tenance work must then be continued at the specified intervals.
The specification of fluids and lubricants, guidelines for maintenance and change intervals as well as a
list of approved fluids and lubricants are provided in the MTU Fluids and Lubricants Specifications
A001063/.. Use only fluids and lubricants which comply with the MTU Fluids and Lubricants Specifica-
tions.
The user/customer must perform the following additional maintenance tasks:
Fuel prefilter:
The maintenance interval depends on how dirty fuel is. The filter elements of the fuel prefilters must
be replaced every 2 years at the latest.
Battery:
Battery maintenance depends on duty and ambient conditions. The specifications of the battery man-

Preparatory steps
1. Remove cylinder head cover ( Page 98).
2. Remove cover on the bottom of flywheel housing, A side.
3. Install barring gear at opening.
4. Rotate crankshaft with barring gear in engine direction of rotation until "OT-A1" mark and pointer are
aligned.
4. Use feeler gauge to determine the distance between valve bridge and rocker arm.
5. If the deviation from the reference value exceeds 0.1 mm, adjust valve clearance.
4. Tighten locknut (1) to specified torque using a torque wrench, holding adjusting screw (2) firm with Al-
len key (5 mm).
