4 Foreword Foreword Literature Information This manual contains safety, operation instructions, lubrication and maintenance information. This manual should be stored in or near the engine area in a literature holder or literature storage area. Read, study and keep it with the literature and engine information. English is the primary language for all Caterpillar publications. The English used facilitates translation and consistency in electronic media delivery. Some photographs or illustrations in this manual show details or attachments that may be different from your engine. Guards and covers may have been removed for illustrative purposes. Continuing improvement and advancement of product design may have caused changes to your engine which are not included in this manual. Whenever a question arises regarding your engine, or this manual, please consult with your Caterpillar dealer for the latest available information. Safety This safety section lists basic safety precautions. In addition, this section identifies hazardous, warning situations. Read and understand the basic precautions listed in the safety section before operating or performing lubrication, maintenance and repair on this product. Operation Operating techniques outlined in this manual are basic. They assist with developing the skills and techniques required to operate the engine more efficiently and economically. Skill and techniques develop as the operator gains knowledge of the engine and its capabilities. The operation section is a reference for operators. Photographs and illustrations guide the operator through procedures of inspecting, starting, operating and stopping the engine. This section also includes a discussion of electronic diagnostic information. Maintenance The maintenance section is a guide to engine care. The illustrated, step-by-step instructions are grouped by fuel consumption, service hours and/or calendar time maintenance intervals. Items in the maintenance schedule are referenced to detailed instructions that follow. Use fuel consumption or service hours to determine intervals. Calendar intervals shown (daily, annually, etc.) may be used instead of service meter intervals if they provide more convenient schedules and approximate the indicated service meter reading. Recommended service should be performed at the appropriate intervals as indicated in the Maintenance Interval Schedule. The actual operating environment of the engine also governs the Maintenance Interval Schedule. Therefore, under extremely severe, dusty, wet or freezing cold operating conditions, more frequent lubrication and maintenance than is specified in the Maintenance Interval Schedule may be necessary. The maintenance schedule items are organized for a preventive maintenance management program. If the preventive maintenance program is followed, a periodic tune-up is not required. The implementation of a preventive maintenance management program should minimize operating costs through cost avoidances resulting from reductions in unscheduled downtime and failures. Maintenance Intervals Perform maintenance on items at multiples of the original requirement. Each level and/or individual items in each level should be shifted ahead or back depending upon your specific maintenance practices, operation and application. We recommend that the maintenance schedules be reproduced and displayed near the engine as a convenient reminder. We also recommend that a maintenance record be maintained as part of the engine’s permanent record. See the section in the Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Maintenance Records” for information regarding documents that are generally accepted as proof of maintenance or repair. Your authorized Caterpillar dealer can assist you in adjusting your maintenance schedule to meet the needs of your operating environment. Overhaul Major engine overhaul details are not covered in the Operation and Maintenance Manual except for the interval and the maintenance items in that interval. Major repairs are best left to trained personnel or an authorized Caterpillar dealer. Your Caterpillar dealer offers a variety of options regarding overhaul programs. If you experience a major engine failure, there are also numerous after failure overhaul options available from your Caterpillar dealer. Consult with your dealer for information regarding these options.

When it is appropriate, disconnect the starting controls. Do not allow unauthorized personnel on the engine, or around the engine when the engine is being serviced. Engine exhaust contains products of combustion which may be harmful to your health. Always start the engine and operate the engine in a well ventilated area. If the engine is in an enclosed area, vent the engine exhaust to the outside. Cautiously remove the following parts. To help prevent spraying or splashing of pressurized fluids, hold a rag over the part that is being removed. • Filler caps • Grease fittings • Pressure taps • Breathers • Drain plugs Use caution when cover plates are removed. Gradually loosen, but do not remove the last two bolts or nuts that are located at opposite ends of the cover plate or the device. Before removing the last two bolts or nuts, pry the cover loose in order to relieve any spring pressure or other pressure.

8 Safety Section General Hazard Information g00702020 Illustration 4 • Wear a hard hat, protective glasses, and other protective equipment, as required. • When work is performed around an engine that is operating, wear protective devices for ears in order to help prevent damage to hearing. • Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that can snag on controls or on other parts of the engine. • Ensure that all protective guards and all covers are secured in place on the engine. • Never put maintenance fluids into glass containers. Glass containers can break. • Use all cleaning solutions with care. • Report all necessary repairs. Unless other instructions are provided, perform the maintenance under the following conditions: • The engine is stopped. Ensure that the engine cannot be started. • Disconnect the batteries when maintenance is performed or when the electrical system is serviced. Disconnect the battery ground leads. Tape the leads in order to help prevent sparks. • Do not attempt any repairs that are not understood. Use the proper tools. Replace any equipment that is damaged or repair the equipment. Pressure Air and Water Pressurized air and/or water can cause debris and/or hot water to be blown out. This could result in personal injury. When pressure air and/or pressure water is used for cleaning, wear protective clothing, protective shoes, and eye protection. Eye protection includes goggles or a protective face shield. The maximum air pressure for cleaning purposes must be below 205 kPa (30 psi). The maximum water pressure for cleaning purposes must be below 275 kPa (40 psi). Fluid Penetration g00687600 Illustration 5 Always use a board or cardboard when you check for a leak. Leaking fluid that is under pressure can penetrate body tissue. Fluid penetration can cause serious injury and possible death. A pin hole leak can cause severe injury. If fluid is injected into your skin, you must get treatment immediately. Seek treatment from a doctor that is familiar with this type of injury. Containing Fluid Spillage Care must be taken in order to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting and repair of the engine. Prepare to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids. Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, “Tools and Shop Products Guide” for the following items: • Tools that are suitable for collecting fluids and equipment that is suitable for collecting fluids • Tools that are suitable for containing fluids and equipment that is suitable for containing fluids Obey all local regulations for the disposal of liquids.

9 Safety Section Burn Prevention Asbestos Information g00702022 Illustration 6 Caterpillar equipment and replacement parts that are shipped from Caterpillar are asbestos free. Caterpillar recommends the use of only genuine Caterpillar replacement parts. Use the following guidelines when you handle any replacement parts that contain asbestos or when you handle asbestos debris. Use caution. Avoid inhaling dust that might be generated when you handle components that contain asbestos fibers. Inhaling this dust can be hazardous to your health. The components that may contain asbestos fibers are brake pads, brake bands, lining material, clutch plates, and some gaskets. The asbestos that is used in these components is usually bound in a resin or sealed in some way. Normal handling is not hazardous unless airborne dust that contains asbestos is generated. If dust that may contain asbestos is present, there are several guidelines that should be followed: • Never use compressed air for cleaning. • Avoid brushing materials that contain asbestos. • Avoid grinding materials that contain asbestos. • Use a wet method in order to clean up asbestos materials. • A vacuum cleaner that is equipped with a high efficiency particulate air filter (HEPA) can also be used. • Use exhaust ventilation on permanent machining jobs. • Wear an approved respirator if there is no other way to control the dust. • Comply with applicable rules and regulations for the work place. In the United States, use Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements. These OSHA requirements can be found in “29 CFR 1910.1001”. • Obey environmental regulations for the disposal of asbestos. • Stay away from areas that might have asbestos particles in the air. Dispose of Waste Properly g00706404 Illustration 7 Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment. Potentially harmful fluids should be disposed of according to local regulations. Always use leakproof containers when you drain fluids. Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any source of water. i01480768 Burn Prevention SMCS Code: 1000; 7405 Do not touch any part of an operating engine. Allow the engine to cool before any maintenance is performed on the engine. Relieve all pressure in the air system, in the hydraulic system, in the lubrication system, in the fuel system, or in the cooling system before any lines, fittings or related items are disconnected. Coolant When the engine is at operating temperature, the engine coolant is hot. The coolant is also under pressure. The radiator and all lines to the heaters or to the engine contain hot coolant.

10 Safety Section Fire Prevention and Explosion Prevention Any contact with hot coolant or with steam can cause severe burns. Allow cooling system components to cool before the cooling system is drained. Check the coolant level after the engine has stopped and the engine has been allowed to cool. Ensure that the filler cap is cool before removing the filler cap. The filler cap must be cool enough to touch with a bare hand. Remove the filler cap slowly in order to relieve pressure. Cooling system conditioner contains alkali. Alkali can cause personal injury. Do not allow alkali to contact the skin, the eyes, or the mouth. Oils Hot oil and hot lubricating components can cause personal injury. Do not allow hot oil to contact the skin. Also, do not allow hot components to contact the skin. Batteries Electrolyte is an acid. Electrolyte can cause personal injury. Do not allow electrolyte to contact the skin or the eyes. Always wear protective glasses for servicing batteries. Wash hands after touching the batteries and connectors. Use of gloves is recommended. i01372258 Fire Prevention and Explosion Prevention SMCS Code: 1000; 7405 g00704000 Illustration 8 All fuels, most lubricants, and some coolant mixtures are flammable. Flammable fluids that are leaking or spilled onto hot surfaces or onto electrical components can cause a fire. Fire may cause personal injury and property damage. A flash fire may result if the covers for the engine crankcase are removed within fifteen minutes after an emergency shutdown. Determine whether the engine will be operated in an environment that allows combustible gases to be drawn into the air inlet system. These gases could cause the engine to overspeed. Personal injury, property damage, or engine damage could result. If the application involves the presence of combustible gases, consult your Caterpillar dealer for additional information about suitable protection devices. Remove all flammable materials such as fuel, oil, and debris from the engine. Do not allow any flammable materials to accumulate on the engine. Store fuels and lubricants in properly marked containers away from unauthorized persons. Store oily rags and any flammable materials in protective containers. Do not smoke in areas that are used for storing flammable materials. Do not expose the engine to any flame. Exhaust shields (if equipped) protect hot exhaust components from oil or fuel spray in case of a line, a hose, or a seal failure. Exhaust shields must be installed correctly. Do not weld on lines or tanks that contain flammable fluids. Do not flame cut lines that contain flammable fluid. Clean any such lines thoroughly with a nonflammable solvent prior to welding or flame cutting. Wiring must be kept in good condition. All electrical wires must be properly routed and securely attached. Check all electrical wires daily. Repair any wires that are loose or frayed before you operate the engine. Clean all electrical connections and tighten all electrical connections. Eliminate all wiring that is unattached or unnecessary. Do not use any wires or cables that are smaller than the recommended gauge. Do not bypass any fuses and/or circuit breakers. Arcing or sparking could cause a fire. Secure connections, recommended wiring, and properly maintained battery cables will help to prevent arcing or sparking.
