Safety information
Introduction
This workshop manual contains technical data, de-
scriptions and repair instructions for the Volvo Penta
products or product versions noted in the table of con-
tents. Check that you have the correct Workshop
Manual for your engine.
Read the available safety information, “General infor-
mation” and “Repair instructions” in the workshop
manual before you start to do any service work.
Important
In this book and on the product you will find the follow-
ing special warning symbols.
WARNING! Warns for the risk of personal injury,
major damage to product or property, or serious
malfunctions if the instruction is ignored.
IMPORTANT! Is used to call attention to things
which could cause damage or malfunctions to
product or property.
NOTE! Is used to call attention to important informa-
tion, to facilitate work processes or operation.
Below is a summary of the risks involved and safety
precautions you should always observe or carry out
when operating or servicing the engine.
Make it impossible to start the engine by cutting
system current with the main switch(es) and
lock it (them) in the off position before starting
service work. Set up a warning notice by the
helm station.
As a general rule all service operations must be
carried out with the engine stopped. Some
tasks, such as adjustments, need the engine to
be running, however. Approaching an engine
which is operating is a safety hazard. Remem-
ber that loose clothing or long hair can fasten in
rotating parts and cause serious personal injury.
If work is done adjacent to a running engine, a
careless movement or a dropped tool can lead
to personal injury in the worst case.
Take care to avoid contact with hot surfaces
(exhaust pipes, turbocharger, air intake pipe,
starter heater etc.) and fluids in pipes and hoses
in an engine which is running or has just been
stopped. Reinstall all protective parts removed
during servicework before starting the engine.
Never start the engine with the valve cover re-
moved. Apart from the risk of spilling oil, there
is a risk of personal injury. The voltage supplied
to the injectors can be as high as 80 V.
Check that the warning or information labels on
the product are always clearly visible. Replace
labels which have been damaged or painted over.
Never start the engine without installing the air
cleaner filter. The rotating compressor turbine in
the turbocharger can cause severe injury. For-
eign objects entering the intake ducts can also
cause mechanical damage.
Never use start spray or similar products as a
starting aid. They may cause an explosion in
the inlet manifold. Danger of personal injury.
Avoid opening the coolant filling cap when the
engine is hot. Steam or hot coolant can spray
out and the system pressure will be lost. Open
the filler cap slowly, and release the pressure in
the cooling system if the filling cap or tap has to
be opened, or if a plug or coolant hose has to be
removed when the engine is hot. It is difficult to
anticipate in which direction steam or hot cool-
ant can spray out.
Hot oil can cause burns. Avoid skin contact with
hot oil. Ensure that the lubrication system is not
under pressure before carrying out any work.
Never start or operate the engine with the oil fill-
er cap removed, otherwise oil could be ejected.
Stop the engine and close the sea cocks before
doing any work on the cooling system.

Only start the engine in a well-ventilated area.
When operated in a confined space, exhaust
fumes and crankcase gases must be ventilated
from the engine bay or workshop area.
Always use protective glasses or goggles when
carrying out work where there is a risk of splin-
ters, grinding sparks, acid splashes or where
other chemicals are used. Your eyes are ex-
tremely sensitive, injury could cause blindness!
Avoid getting oil on your skin! Repeated expo-
sure to oil or exposure over a long period can re-
sult in the skin becoming dry. Irritation, dryness
and eczema and other skin problems can then
occur.
Used oil is more dangerous than fresh oil from a
health aspect. Use protective gloves and avoid oil-
soaked clothes and rags. Wash regularly, espe-
cially before eating. There are special skin creams
which counteract drying out of the skin and make
it easier to clean off dirt after work is completed.
Most chemicals intended for the product (e.g.
engine and transmission oils, glycol, petrol (gas-
oline) and diesel oil) or chemicals for workshop
use (e.g. degreasers, paints and solvents) are
hazardous. Read the instructions on the product
packaging with care! Always follow the safety
precautions for the product (for example use of
protective mask, glasses, gloves etc.). Make
sure that other personnel are not inadvertently
exposed to hazardous chemicals, for example in
the air. Ensure good ventilation in the work
place. Follow the instructions provided when dis-
posing of used or leftover chemicals.
Exercise extreme care when leak detecting on
the fuel system and testing the fuel injector noz-
zles. Use eye protection. The jet which comes
from a fuel injector has very high pressure and
considerable penetrationability. Fuel can force its
way deep into body tissue and cause severe inju-
ry. Danger of blood poisoning (septicemia).
All fuels, and many chemicals, are flammable.
Do not allow naked flame or sparks in the vicini-
ty. Petrol (gasoline), some thinners and hydrogen
gas from batteries are extremely flammable and
explosive when mixed with air in the correct ratio.
No smoking! Ensure that the work area is well
ventilated and take the necessary safety precau-
tions before starting welding or grinding work.
Always ensure that there are fire extinguishers at
hand when work is being carried out.
Make sure that oil and fuel soaked rags, and
used fuel and oil filters are stored in a safe
place. Rags soaked in oil can spontaneously
ignite under certain circumstances.
Used fuel and oil filters are polluting waste and
must be handed to an approved waste manage-
ment facility for destruction, together with used
lubrication oil, contaminated fuel, paint residue,
solvents, degreasers and wash residue.
Batteries must never be exposed to open
flames or electric sparks. Never smoke close to
the batteries. The batteries generate hydrogen
gas when charged, which forms an explosive
gas when mixed with air. This gas is easily ignit-
ed and highly volatile. A spark, which can be
caused by incorrect battery connection, can
cause a single spark which is sufficient to
cause an explosion with resulting damage. Do
not move the connections when you attempt to
start the engine (risk of sparking), and do not
stand and lean over one of the batteries.
Always ensure that the Plus (positive) and Mi-
nus (negative) battery cables are correctly in-
stalled on the corresponding terminal posts on
the batteries. Incorrect installation can result in
serious damage to the electrical equipment.
Refer to the wiring diagram.
Always use protective goggles when charging
and handling the batteries. Battery electrolyte
contains sulfuric acid which is highly corrosive.
Should the battery electrolyte come into contact
with unprotected skin wash off immediately us-
ing plenty of water and soap. If you get battery
acid in your eyes, flush at once with a generous
amount of water, and get medical assistance at
once.
Turn the engine off and turn off the power at the
main switch(es) before carrying out work on the
electrical system.
Clutch adjustments must be carried out with the
engine stopped.
The existing lugs on the engine/reversing gear
should be used for lifting the assembly.
Always check that the lifting devises are in good
condition and that they have the correct capaci-
ty for the lift (the weight of the engine plus the
reversing gear and extra equipment).
![Volvo Penta D6 Group 30 Electrical system Workshop and Repair Manual [en] preview img 8](https://cdn.static-repo.emanualonline.com/Other/NASa/DBM/490738-Volvo_Penta_D6_Group_30_Electrical_system_Workshop_and_Repair_Manual_en/8/8.jpg)
Safety information Group 30: Electrical system

The engine should be lifted with a customized or
adjustable lifting boom for safe handling and to
avoid damaging components on top of the en-
gine. All chains or cables should be parallel to
each other and should be as square as possible
to the top of the engine.
If other equipment connected to the engine has
altered its center of gravity, special lifting devis-
es may be needed to obtain the correct balance
and safe handling.
Never do any work on an engine which just
hangs from a liftingdevise.
Never work alone when removing heavy engine
components, even when using lifting devices such
as locking tackle lifts. When using a lifting device
two people are usually required to do the work, one
to take care of the lifting device and another to en-
sure that components are lifted clear and not dam-
aged during the lifting operations.
When you work aboard a boat, always make
sure that there is enough space for disassembly
where you are working, with no risk of personal
injury or material damage.
Components in the electrical and fuel systems
on Volvo Penta products have been designed to
minimize the risks of explosion and fire. The en-
gine must not be run in areas where there are
explosive materials.
WARNING! Fuel delivery pipes must not be bent
or straightened under any circumstances. Dam-
aged pipes must be replaced.
Never use a high-pressure washer to clean the
engine. When cleaning other parts with a high-
pressure washer, never direct the jet at seals,
rubber hoses or electrical components.
Only use the fuels recommended by Volvo Pen-
ta. Refer to the Operator’s Manual. Use of fuels
that are of a lower quality can damage the en-
gine. Poor fuel can also lead to higher-
maintenance costs.

General information
About this Workshop Manual
This workshop manual contains technical data, de-
scriptions and repair instructions for the following ma-
rine diesel engines:
D6-310D-B and D6-370D-B.
The workshop manual can illustrate tasks done on
any of the engines noted above. This means that the
illustrations and photographs which clarify certain de-
tails might not correspond with other engines in some
cases. Repair methods are similar in all important re-
spects, however. If this is not the case, this is noted.
Important differences are noted separately.
The engine designation and number are noted on the
number plate and engine decal. The engine designa-
tion and number must always be given in all corre-
spondence about any product.
The Workshop Manual is produced primarily for the
use of Volvo Penta workshops and service techni-
cians. This assumes that people who use the Manual
have basic knowledge of marine drive systems and
can do the tasks of a mechanical or electrical nature
associated with the trade.
Volvo Penta constantly improves its products, so we
reserve the right to make modifications without prior
notification. All information in this manual is based on
product data which was available up to the date on
which the manual was printed. Any material changes
introduced into the product or service methods after
this date are notified by means of Service Bulletins.
Spare parts
Spare parts for electrical- and fuel systems are sub-
ject to various national safety requirements, such as
U.S. Coast Guard Safety Regulations. Volvo Penta
Original Spare Parts meet these specifications. Any
damage, occasioned by use of non-original Volvo
Penta spares for the product, will be not be compen-
sated by the warranty offered by Volvo Penta.
Certified engines
When doing service and repair on emission certi-
fied engines, it is important to be aware of the fol-
lowing:
Certification means that an engine type has been
checked and approved by the relevant authority. The
engine manufacturer guarantees that all engines made
of the same type are equivalent to the certified engine.
This makes special demands on service and repair
work, as follows:
● Maintenance and service intervals recommended
by Volvo Penta mustbe complied with.
● Only Volvo Penta original spares may be used.
● Service to injection pumps, pump settings and in-
jectors must always be done by an authorized
Volvo Penta workshop.
● The engine must not be converted or modified,
except for the accessories and service kits which
Volvo Penta has approved for the engine.
● No installation changes to the exhaust pipe and
engine air inlet ducts may be done.
● No seals may be broken by unauthorized personnel.
The general advice in the instruction book about oper-
ation, care and maintenance applies.
IMPORTANT! Delayed or inferior care/mainte-
nance, and the use of non-original spares parts
means that Volvo Penta can no longer be re-
sponsible for guaranteeing that the engine com-
plies with the certified version.
Damage andd /or costs which arise from this will
not be compensated by Volvo Penta.

Repair instructions
The working methods described in the Workshop Manual
apply to work carried out in a workshop. For this reason,
the engine is lifted out of the boat and mounted on an
equipment support. Renovation work which does not
need the engine to be lifted out can be done in situ, with
the same work methods, unless otherwise specified.
The warning signs which occur in the workshop manual
(please refer to “Safety information” for their meanings).
WARNING!
IMPORTANT!
NOTE!
are not comprehensive in any way, since we can not of
course foresee everything, because service work is
done in highly varying circumstances. For this reason,
all we can do is to point out the risks which we believe
could occur due to incorrect work in a well-equipped
workshop, using work methods and tools tested by us.
All operations described in the Workshop Manual for
which there are Volvo Penta Special Tools available
assume that these tools are used when carrying out
the repair. Volvo Penta Special Tools have been de-
veloped to ensure the most safe and rational working
methods possible. It is therefore the responsibility of
anyone using other tools or other working methods
than we recommend to determine that there is no risk
of personal injury or mechanical damage or malfunc-
tion as a result.
In some cases special safety precautions and user in-
structions may be required in order to use the tools and
chemicals mentioned in the Workshop Manual. These
rules must always be observed, so there are no special
instructions about this in the workshop manual.
By following these basic recommendations and using-
using common sense it is possible to avoid most of
the risks involved in the work. A clean work place and
a clean engine will eliminate many risks of personal
injury and engine malfunction.
Above all, when work on fuel systems, lubrication
systems, induction systems, turbocharger, bearing
caps and seals is done, it is extremely important that
no dirt or other kinds of foreign particles are able to
get in, since this would otherwise cause malfunctions
or shortened repair life.
Our common responsibility
Each engine consists of a large number of collaborat-
ing systems and components. Any deviation of a
component from its technical specification can dra-
matically increase the environmental impact of an oth-
erwise good engine. For this reason, it is important
that the specified wear tolerances are observed, that
systems which are adjustable are correctly adjusted
and that Volvo Penta Original Spares are used for the
engine. The stated service intervals in the Mainte-
nance Schedule must be observed.
Some systems, such as the components in the fuel
system, require special expertise and special testing
equipment for service and maintenance. For environ-
mental reasons etc., some components are sealed at
the factory. It is only permissible to work on sealed
components if you are authorized to do such work.
Remember that most chemical products, incorrectly
used, damage the environment. Volvo Penta recom-
mends the use of biodegradable degreasers whenever
engine components are de-greased, unless otherwise
specified in the workshop manual. When working aboard
a boat, be careful to ensure that oils, wash residue etc.
are processed for destruction, and are not inadvertently
discharged with bilge water into the environment.
Tightening torques
The tightening torque for vital fasteners, which should
be tightened with a torque wrench, are listed in “Techni-
cal Data: Special tightening torques” and noted in the
job descriptions in the book. All torque specifications
apply to clean screws, screw heads and mating faces.
Torque data stated apply to lightly oiled or dry threads.
Iflubricants, locking fluids or sealants are needed on a
fastener, the type of preparation to be used will be not-
ed in the job description. For fasteners where specific
torque values are not given, please refer to “Technical
data: General tightening torques”. General torque speci-
fications are target values and the fastener does not
need to be tightened with a torque wrench.
