Foreword

Dear Customer,

Air / liquid-cooled Deutz engines are designed

for a large number of applications. Conse-
quently, a wide range of variants is offered to
meet the requirements of specific cases.

Your engine is appropriately equipped for the

installation concerned, which means that not
all of the components described in this Opera-
tion Manual are necessarily mounted to your
engine.

We have endeavoured to highlight any differ-

ences so that you will be able to locate theses
differences relevant to your engine.

Please read this Manual before starting your

engine, and always observe the operating and
maintenance instructions.

We are available to help with any additional

inquiries

Sincerely,
DEUTZ AG

After repair work:
Check that all guards have been

When starting with glow plugs, do not use any

Caution:
If the speed regulator has been removed, the

and store in a warm place).
● Diesel Fuel
– Use winter-grade diesel fuel for operation
below 0 °C, see 4.2.2

● Additional Maintenance Work

– Drain the sludge from the fuel tank once a
week. (Unscrew the sludge drain plug)
– If necessary, allow the oil in the oil bath air
cleaner and the engine oil to settle at the
ambient temperature.
– Below -20 °C, after removing the starter © 26 248 2
if necessary, smear the ring gear on the
fly wheel via the pinion bore from time to
time with cold-resistant grease (e.g. Bosch
FT 1 V 31 grease).

● Cold Start Assistance

At temperatures near or below freezing
point, use sheathed glow plugs if neces-
sary, see 3.2.1. This not only lowers the
starting limit temperature, but provides easier
starting at temperatures normally not requir-
ing a starting aid.

 Engine Operation 3.5 Operating Conditions

3 3.5.2 High Ambient Temperature,

High Altitude
● Air density decreases as altitude or ambient
temperature increase. As a result of this, the
engine’s maximum output, the quality of the
exhaust gas, the temperature level and, in
extreme cases, starting behaviour, are im-
peded. Under transient conditions, the en-
gine can be used at altitudes up to 1000 m
and temperatures up to 30 °C. If the engine
is to operate under more severe conditions
(at higher altitudes or temperatures), it will
be necessary to reduce the injected fuel
quantity and thus, engine power.

● If you have any doubts about engine opera-

tion under these or similar conditions, ask
your engine or equipment supplier whether

Valve Clearance Adjustments
● Crankshaft Position 1:
Turn crankshaft until both valves in cylin-
der 1 overlap (exhaust valve about to
close, inlet valve about to open). Adjust
clearance of valves marked in black on
schematic. Mark respective rocker arm
with chalk to show that adjustment has
been carried out.
