About this Workshop manual
General information
This Service Manual contains technical data, descrip-
tions and maintenance and repair instructions for
standard model Volvo Penta products. A list of these
products may be found in the section Technical
Data.
The product designation and the serial number and
specification is indicated on the engine decal or type
plate. This information must be included in all corre-
spondence regarding the product.
The service manual is produced primarily for the use
of Volvo Penta workshops and their qualified person-
nel. It is assumed that any person using the Service
Manual has a fundamental knowledge of the product
and is able to carry out mechanical and electrical
work to trade standard.
Volvo Penta continually develops its products; we
therefore reserve the right to make changes. All infor-
mation in this manual is based on product data which
was available up to the date on which the manual was
printed. New working methods and significant
changes introduced to the product after this date are
communicated in the form of Service bulletins.
Spare Parts
Spare parts for the electrical and fuel systems are
subject to various national safety standards. Volvo
Penta Original Spare Parts meet these standards. No
damage of any kind caused by the use of spare parts
not approved by Volvo Penta will be compensated by
any warranty undertaking.
Certified engines
When carrying out service and repair on emis-
sion-certified engines, it is important to be aware
of the following:
Certification means that an engine type has been
inspected and approved by the relevant authority.
The engine manufacturer guarantees that all engines
of the same type are manufactured to correspond to
the certified engine.
This places special demands on service and repair
work, namely:
• Maintenance and service intervals recom-
mended by Volvo Penta must be complied with.
• Only spare parts approved by Volvo Penta may
be used.
• Service on injection pumps, pump settings and
injectors must always be carried out by an
authorized Volvo Penta workshop.
• The engine must not be converted or modified,
except with accessories and service kits which
Volvo Penta has approved for the engine.
• No changes to the exhaust pipe and engine air
inlet duct installations may be made.
• No warranty seals (where present on the prod-
uct) may be broken by unauthorized persons.
The general instructions in the Operator's Manual
concerning operation, service and maintenance
apply.
IMPORTANT!
Neglected or poorly-performed care/service and the
use of spare parts not approved by Volvo Penta, will
mean that AB Volvo Penta no longer guarantees that
the engine conforms to the certified model.
Volvo Penta accepts no responsibility for damage or
costs arising as a result of failure to follow the above
mentioned standards.

About repair instructions
Introduction
The working methods described in this manual are
based on a workshop scenario where the product is
mounted in a holding fixture. Maintenance work is
often carried out in situ, in which case - if nothing else
is indicated - using the same working methods as the
workshop.
Warning symbols that occur in the service manual.
For significance, refer to Safety Information .
!
DANGER!
!
WARNING!
!
CAUTION!
IMPORTANT!, NOTICE!
are by no means comprehensive since not everything
can be foreseen as service work is carried out in the
most varied of circumstances. We call attention to
risks that may occur due to incorrect handling during
work in a well-equipped workshop using working
methods and tools tried and tested by us.
The service manual describes work operations car-
ried out with the aid of Volvo Penta Special Tools,
where such have been developed. Volvo Penta Spe-
cial Tools are designed to ensure the safest and most
rational working methods possible. It is therefore the
responsibility of anyone using tools or working meth-
ods other than those we recommend to ensure that
no risk of personal injury or mechanical damage is
present, or that malfunction can result.
In some cases, special safety regulations and user
instructions may be in force for the tools and chemi-
cals mentioned in the Service Manual. These regu-
lations must always be followed, and no special
instructions regarding this are to be found in the Serv-
ice Manual.
By taking these basic precautions and using common
sense it will be possible to guard against most ele-
ments of risk. A clean workplace and a clean product
will eliminate many risks of personal injury and mal-
function.
Above all, when working on fuel systems, hydraulic
systems, lubrication systems, turbochargers, inlet
systems, bearings and seals, it is of the utmost impor-
tance that dirt and foreign objects are kept away, as
malfunctions or shortened service intervals may oth-
erwise result.
Our mutual responsibility
Each product comprises a large number of interacting
systems and components. A deviation from the tech-
nical specification may dramatically increase the
environmental impact of an otherwise reliable sys-
tem. It is therefore critical that the stated wear toler-
ances be adhered to, that systems which can be
adjusted be correctly set up and that only Volvo Penta
Original Parts are used. The intervals in the care and
maintenance schedule must be followed.
Some systems, e.g. fuel systems, often require spe-
cial expertise and test equipment. A number of com-
ponents are factory-sealed, for among other things
environmental reasons. Warranty-sealed compo-
nents may not be worked on without authorization to
perform such work.
Remember that most chemical products, incorrectly
used, are harmful to the environment. Volvo Penta
recommends the use of biodegradable degreasers
whenever components are cleaned, unless otherwise
specified in the Service Manual. When working out-
doors, take especial care to ensure that oils and wash
residues etc. are correctly properly for destruction.
Tightening torques
Tightening torques for vital fasteners that must be
applied using a torque wrench are indicated in the
Service Manual, chapter Tightening torques and in
the Manual's work descriptions. All torque indications
apply to clean threads, bolt heads and mating faces.
Indicated torque data apply to lightly-oiled or dry
threads. If lubricants, locking fluids or sealants are
required for fasteners, the correct type will be noted
in the job description.

Torque, angle tightening
When torque/angle tightening, the fastener is tight-
ened to a specified torque, and tightening then con-
tinues through a pre-determined angle.
Example: For 90° angle tightening, the fastener is
turned a further 1/4 turn in one sequence, after the
specified tightening torque has been achieved.
Lock nuts
Removed locknuts may not be re-used; they must be
replaced by new ones, as locking properties are
impaired or lost with re-use.
In the case of lock nuts with plastic inserts the tight-
ening torque indicated must be reduced if the nut has
the same nut height as a standard, all-metal hexag-
onal nut.
Reduce the torque by 25% for bolt sizes of 8 mm or
larger.
In the case of lock nuts with plastic inserts with a high
nut-height (where the all-metal thread is as high as a
standard hexagonal nut), the indicated torque
applies.
Strength classes
Nuts and bolts are subdivided into different strength
classes. The classification is shown by a marking on
the bolt head. Markings of a higher number indicate
stronger material. For example, a bolt marked 10-9 is
stronger than one marked 8-8.
For this reason, it is important that when bolts are
removed they are returned to their original locations
on re-assembly. When replacing bolts check the
applicable Spare parts catalogue to ensure the cor-
rect bolt is used.
Sealing compounds etc.
To ensure service work is correctly carried out it is
important that the correct type of sealants and locking
fluids are used on joints where such are required.
In each service manual section concerned, the seal-
ants used in product manufacture are indicated. The
same sealants, or sealants with equivalent proper-
ties, must be used for maintenance work.
Make sure that mating surfaces are dry and free from
oil, grease, paint and anti-corrosion agent before
applying sealant or locking fluid. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions regarding applicable
temperatures, hardening times and such.
Two basic types of compound are used:
RTV preparations (Room Temperature Vulcaniz-
ing).
Used most often together with gaskets, e.g. sealing
gasket joints, or are brushed on gaskets. RTV seal-
ants are completely visible when the part has been
removed. Old RTV sealant must be removed before
the component is sealed again. Use denatured alco-
hol.
Anaerobic agents.
These agents cure (harden) in the absence of air.
These preparations are used when two solid compo-
nents, e.g. two cast components, are fitted together
without a gasket. Common uses are also to lock and
seal plugs, stud threads, taps, oil pressure monitors
etc.
Hardened anaerobic preparations are glassy and for
this reason, the preparations are colored to make
them visible. Hardened anaerobic preparations are
highly resistant to solvents, and old compound can-
not be removed. On re-assembly, it is important to
carefully degrease and wipe dry components first,
before applying new sealant in accordance with the
instructions.

Safety regulations for fluorocarbon
rubber
Fluorocarbon rubber is a common material in sealing
rings for shafts, and in O-rings, for example.
When fluorocarbon rubber is exposed to high tem-
peratures (above 300°C), hydrofluoric acid can form.
This is highly corrosive. Contact with the skin can
result in severe chemical burns. Splashes in your
eyes can result in chemical wounds. If you breathe in
the fumes, your lungs can be permanently damaged.
WARNING!
Tätningar får aldrig brännas loss vid demontering
eller eldas upp under okontrollerade former. Risk för
giftiga gaser.
WARNING!
Använd alltid handskar av kloroprengummi
(handskar för kemikaliehantering) och
skyddsglasögon. Hantera den borttagna tätningen på
samma sätt som frätande syra. Alla rester, även
aska, kan vara starkt frätande. Använd aldrig tryckluft
vid rengöring.
Lägg gummiresterna i en plastburk som försluts och
försetts med varningstext. Tvätta handskarna under
rinnande vatten innan de tas av.
The following seals are most probably made from flu-
orocarbon rubber:
Seal rings for the crankshaft, camshaft, idler shafts.
O-rings, regardless of where they are installed. O-
rings for cylinder liner sealing are almost always
made of fluorocarbon rubber.
Please note that seals which have not been
exposed to high temperature can be handled nor-
mally.
