1.8 Fluids and lubricants, fire prevention and environmentalprotection

Fire preventionRectify any fuel or oil leaks immediately; even splashes of oil or fuel on hot components can cause fires -therefore always keep the engine in a clean condition. Do not leave cloths soaked with fluids and lubri‐cants lying on or near the assembly or unit. Do not store inflammable material near the assembly or unit.Do not weld pipes and components carrying oil or fuel! Before welding, clean with a nonflammable fluid.When starting the engine with an external power source, connect the ground lead last and remove it first.To avoid sparks in the vicinity of the battery, connect the ground lead from the external power source tothe ground lead of the engine or to the ground terminal of the starter.Always keep suitable firefighting equipment (fire extinguishers) at hand and familiarize yourself with theiruse.

NoiseNoise can lead to an increased risk of accident if acoustic signals, warning shouts or noises indicatingdanger are drowned.Wear ear protectors in work areas with a sound pressure level in excess of 85 dB (A).

Environmental protection and disposalModification or removal of mechanical or electronic components or the installation of additional compo‐nents as well as the execution of calibration processes that might affect the emission characteristics ofthe engine are prohibited by emission regulations. Emission control units/systems may only be main‐tained, exchanged or repaired if the components used for this purpose are approved by MTU or equiva‐lent components. Noncompliance with these guidelines might represent a violation of the Clean Air Actand involves the termination of the operating license by the emission authorities. MTU does not acceptany liability for violations of the emission regulations. MTU will provide assistance and advice if emission-relevant components are intended to be modified. The MTU Maintenance Schedules ensure the reliabili‐ty and performance of MTU engines and must be complied with over the entire life cycle of the engine.Use only fuel of prescribed quality to comply with emission limit values.Dispose of used fluids, lubricants and filters in accordance with local regulations.Within the EU, batteries can be returned free of charge to MTU FN / MTU Onsite Energy where they aresubjected to proper recycling procedures.

Fluids and lubricantsUse only fluids and lubricants that have been tested and approved by MTU.Keep fluids and lubricants in suitable, properly designated containers. When using fluids, lubricants andother chemical substances, follow the safety instructions that apply to the product. Take special carewhen using hot, chilled or caustic materials. When using flammable materials, avoid all sparks and donot smoke.

Lead• When working with lead or lead-containing compounds, avoid direct contact to the skin and do not

inhale lead vapors.• Adopt suitable measures to avoid the formation of lead dust.• Switch on extraction system.• Wash hands after contact with lead or lead-containing substances.

Compressed airObserve special safety precautions when working with compressed air:• Pay special attention to the pressure level in the compressed air network and pressure vessel.• Assemblies and equipment to be connected must either be designed for this pressure, or, if the per‐

mitted pressure for the connecting elements is lower than the pressure required, a pressure reducingvalve and safety valve (set to permitted pressure) must form an intermediate connection.

• Hose couplings and connections must be securely attached.• Wear goggles when blowing off components or blowing away chips.• Provide the snout of the air nozzle with a protective disk (e.g. rubber disk).• First shut off compressed air lines before compressed air equipment is disconnected from the supply

line, or before equipment or tool is to be replaced.• Unauthorized use of compressed air, e.g. forcing flammable liquids (danger class AI, AII and B) out of

containers, results in a risk of explosion.• Forcing compressed air into thin-walled containers (e.g. containers made of tin, plastic and glass) for

drying purposes or to check for leaks, results in a risk of bursting.• Carry out leak test in accordance with the specifications.

Painting• When carrying out painting work outside the spray stands provided with fume extraction systems, en‐

sure that the area is well ventilated. Make sure that neighboring work areas are not impaired.• No open flames.• No smoking.• Observe fire prevention regulations.• Always wear a mask providing protection against paint and solvent vapors.

Liquid nitrogen• Store liquid nitrogen only in small quantities and always in regulation containers without fixed covers.• Avoid body contact (eyes, hands).• Wear protective clothing, protective gloves, closed shoes and protective goggles / safety mask.• Make sure that working area is well ventilated.• Avoid all knocks and jars to the containers, fixtures or workpieces.

Acids and alkaline solutions• When working with acids and alkalis, wear protective goggles or face mask, gloves and protective

clothing.• If such solutions are spilled onto clothing, remove the affected clothing immediately.• Rinse injured parts of the body thoroughly with clean water.• Rinse eyes immediately with eyedrops or clean tap water.

The firstswitch is used for reading out the flash codes of the master DDEC unit, the second one to read out thereceiver DDEC unit. The flash-code signals from master and receiver are transmitted to the same alarmlamps.

Active codes: Inactive codes:indicated by STOP ENGINE LIGHT (red) indicated by CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (yellow)

Activation of flash codes:1. Operate IGNITION switch to position ON.2. Operate DIAGNOSTIC REQUEST switch of master or receiver unit.3. Read off codes.4. Identify the fault according to the DDC fault code list.

Example:Active code 23: Inactive code 34:STOP ENGINE LIGHT lampis flashing:

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT lampis flashing:

Flashing phase 1 Flashing phase 2 Flashing phase 1 Flashing phase 2О О О О О О О О О О О Оtwo times flashing three times flashing three times flashing four times flashing

There is a pause of 0.5 seconds between the flashing phases 1 and 2. When a fault code changes fromactive to inactive, the pause is 3 seconds.To terminate flash code indication, switch DIAGNOSTIC REQUEST and IGNITION switches off.IGNITION is allowed to be switched on again only after 30 seconds.This method does not allow exact fault diagnostics, since a flash code may indicate faults with severalcauses.The Diagnostic Data Reader (DDR) facilitates more detailed troubleshooting.The Diagnostic Data Reader (DDR) is intended to:• Read out alarms from the DDEC electronic system• Change parameters (limited extent)The DDR provides the possibility to read out active and inactive fault codes via separate menus. Addi‐tionally, the inactive fault codes stored in the DDEC can be deleted.For detailed functional description, refer to the description of the DDR.The DDR (Part No. 5355383601/77) consists of:• the Pro Link 9000 basic unit• the MPC Cartridge to integrate a PCMCIA card• a PCMCIA card• a connection cable• an additional adapter cable is required (Part No. J 38500 60A)

Explanation:• 33 → Flash code• MID: 128 →Indicates origin of alarm• TURBO-BOOST-SENSOR-INPUT-VOLTAGE-HIGH → Fault text• ▴ ▾ → further faults are present A= active, I= inactiveMID (Message Identification Character)• Indicates origin of alarm

MID 128 → MasterMID 175 → Receiver 1MID 183 → Receiver 2

PID (Parameter Identification Character)• To identify transmitted data: (e. g. engine speed, coolant temperature etc.)

PID 0-127 → 1 data bytePID 128-191 → 2 data bytesPID 192-253 → variable

SID (Subsystem Identification Character)• Identifies the origin of alarms from subsystems, which can be replaced as a complete unit (e.g. injec‐

tors).FMI (Failure Mode Identifier)• Identifies the type of fault.

FMI 0 → Measured value exceeds the limit value (monitoring for TOO HIGH), example: Coolant tem‐peratureFMI 1 → Measured value does not reach the limit value (monitoring for TOO LOW), example: Lube oilpressureFMI 3 → Signal path interrupted or signal is exceeds the permissible measuring range (sensor defect)FMI 4 → Signal path short circuit against (-) supply of sensor or signal does not reach permissiblemeasuring range (sensor defect)

7.2 Cylinder Liner7.2.1 Cylinder liner – Endoscopic examination

Preconditions☑ Engine is stopped and starting disabled

Special tools, Material, Spare partsDesignation / Use Part No. Qty.Endoscope Y20097353

Preparatory steps1. Remove cylinder head cover (→ Page 80).2. Remove injector (→ Page 83).

Positioning crankshaft at BDC1. Using barring device, turn crankshaft until crankshaft journal of the cylinder to be tested has reached

BDC.2. Insert endoscope into cylinder liner through injector seat.

Cylinder liner endoscopic examinationFindings Measure• Thin carbon coating on carbon scraper ring• Slight localized additive deposits at top edge• Localized smooth areas at bottom edge• Carbon deposits on entire circumference between top piston ring

and bottom edge of carbon scraper ring• First signs of marks left by top piston ring• Bright mark on entire circumference• Faultless, even honing pattern• First signs of marks left by lower cooling bores• Running pattern seems darker

No action required

• Dark areas with even or varying degrees of discoloration• Beginning and end of the discoloration are not sharply defined and

do not cover the entire stroke area• Dark areas in the upper section of the cooling bore, remaining cir‐

cumference cannot be faulted• Piston rings cannot be faulted

Further endoscopic examina‐tion required as part of main‐tenance work

• On the entire circumference, apart from light areas of discoloration(do not impair operation) clearly darker stripes that start at the toppiston ring

• Heat discoloration in the direction of stroke and honing pattern dam‐age

• Heat discoloration of piston rings

Cylinder liner must be re‐placed; Service must be con‐tacted

1. Compile endoscopy report using the table.2. Use technical terms for description of the liner surface (→ Page 69).3. Depending on findings:

• Do not take any action or• carry out a further endoscopic examination as part of maintenance work or• contact Service; cylinder liner must be replaced.

7.2.2 Instructions and comments on endoscopic and visual examination of cylinderliners

Terms used for endoscopic examinationUse the terms listed below to describe the condition of the cylinder-liner surface in the endoscopic exami‐nation report.

Findings MeasureLight scoring Minor dirt scores can occur during the assembly of a new engine (honing prod‐

ucts, particles, broken-off burrs). Removed cylinders clearly exhibit such scor‐ing on the running surface under endoscope magnification. Cannot be felt withthe fingernail.Findings not critical.

Single scores Clearly visible scores caused by hard particles. They usually start in the TDCarea and cross through the honing pattern in the direction of stroke.Findings not critical.

Scored area These areas consist of scores of different lengths and depths next to one an‐other. In most cases, they are found at the 6-o'clock and 12-o'clock positions(inlet/exhaust) along the transverse engine axis.Findings not critical.

Smoothened area Smoothened areas are changes to the running surface but almost the wholehoning pattern is still visible. Smoothened areas appear brighter and more bril‐liant than the surrounding running surface.Findings not critical.

Polished area Polished areas are on the running surface and show local removal of the hon‐ing pattern. Grooves from the honing process are not visible any more.New cylinder liners must be fitted in the following casesPolished area:covers more than 20% of the entire piston running surface,covers more than 30° of the circumference and extends over more than 50%of piston stroke,is wider than 15 mm over the entire piston stroke.

Discoloration This is caused by oxidation (surface discoloration through oil or fuel) and tem‐perature differences around the liner. It appears rather darker within the honedstructure in contrast to the bright metallic running surface. The honing patternis undisturbed. Discolorations extend in stroke direction and may be interrupt‐ed.Findings not critical.

Corrosion fields / spots Corrosion fields / spots result from water (condensed water) with the valves inthe overlap (open) position. They are clearly visible due to the dark color of thehoning groove bottom.This corrosion is not critical unless there is corrosion pitting.

Black lines Black lines are a step towards heat discoloration. They are visible as a cleardiscoloration from TDC to BDC in the running surface and the start of localizeddamage to the honing pattern.Cylinders with a number of black lines around the running surface have limitedservice life and should be replaced.

Findings MeasureDiscolorations (Heat) These are caused by a disturbance in the liner / ring tribosystem. Usually they

run over the whole ring-travel area (TDC/BDC), starting at the first TDC-ringand becoming more visible from the second TDC-ring onwards and less pro‐nounced from TDC-ring 1. The honing pattern is usually no longer visible anddisplays a clearly defined (straight) edge to the undisturbed surface. The dam‐aged surface is usually discolored. The circumferential length varies.Liners with heat discoloration starting in the TDC-ring 1 have to be replaced.

Seizures, Seizuremarks

Seizure marks are of irregular circumferential length and depth. Can becaused by either the piston skirt or the piston crown. Material deposits on theliner (smears) show heavy discoloration and scoring.Replace liner.

Evaluation of findings and further measuresThe findings in the start phase of oxidation discoloration and heat discoloration are similar. Thorough in‐vestigation and compliance with the above evaluation criteria allows a definite evaluation. To avoid un‐necessary disassembly work, it is recommended that another inspection be carried out after further oper‐ation of the engine.
