The pictures and associated descriptions show typical work that may not always be applicable to the en-
gine in hand, which nevertheless does not mean that they are not correct.
In such cases, the repair work is to be planned and carried out in a similar way.
It is compulsory that the engine be removed before performing any of the work describe in this Repair Man-
ual.
The expert knowledge necessary for handling Diesel engines was taken for granted when this publication
was compiled.
Any repair of components such as injection pump, alternator etc. ought to be left to our or the manufac-
turer's service department.
