Tightening torque
The tightening torque for inserting the tie bolts is → M = 250 Nm
1. Pretighten round nuts manually with a pin.

2. Lengthen tie bolts with → P = 850 bar


and tighten round nuts with a pin, taking
care of easy motion.
The pressure must remain constant, when the pump is not operated, otherwise faulty
tightening.
Check: Reduce pressure by 50 bar. Further loosening of the round nuts must not be
possible .
If the cyl. head nuts cannot be loosened with the prescribed pressure, pressure increase
by 50 bar is possible. The pressure must not be increased further, because elongation of
the thread and consequently jamming of the nuts cannot be excluded.

At the control bore - 1 - leakages between


cylinder head, flame ring and cooling water
distributing housing can be detected.

mounted on the liner. The following engines have a fire ring which is inserted in the upper
part of the liner.
Both rings have smaller diameters than the liner. They must be removed before drawing the

Measurement of the gap


Remove round nuts - 4 - and studs - 2 -. Loosen round nuts - 4 - of the adjacent crankshaft
bearings.
Loosen both round nuts in one operation.

Loosen both crankshaft bearing nuts - 3 - in one operation, then tighten both crankshaft
bearing nuts - 3 - with a pin alternately and steadily until the joint faces of the bearing shells
just touch each other. Measure the gap between cylinder crankcase and crankshaft bearing
cap on A-side and B-side.

Sum of gap → 1.00 - 1.20 mm


After longer operation the sum shall not be
less than → 0.90 mm

Then tighten all studs and nuts again acc. to specification.

Bearing caps and bearing shells are marked
on camshaft side with relative cylinder
numbers, counted from flywheel side. The
parts must not be mixed up.
Located and normal main bearings are 1 1
identical, for axial fixing thrust washers are
fitted at bearing 1 (located main bearing). 2
The lower parts of the thrust washers - 1 - 2
are fixed with clamping pins - 2 - at the
bearing cap - 3 -. The upper parts are
inserted in the cylinder crankcase without 3
pins.

Attention ! On the Vee-engine the thrust


washers are of different thicknesses. The
thicker one - 32.85 mm - is mounted on the
flywheel side, the thinner one - 23.85 - in the
direction of crankshaft bearing 2. The lower
parts are fixed with clamping pins at the
bearing cap, just as on the in-line engine, whereas the upper parts are inserted without pins.

be marked with the relevant cylinder number.

The thickness of the distance steel plates for each cylinder is stated in the

Commencement of fuel delivery for engines with eccentrics on the rocking lever
shafts
The flywheel diameter of all engines is Ø1439 mm, i.e. 1° ≅ 12.6 mm.
These engines are equipped with a new fuel injection pump, furthermore the rocking lever
shafts - 1.50 mm - are eccentric. By turning the rocking lever shafts - dependent on the
sense of rotation - the commencement of fuel delivery and firing pressure can be adjusted.
The distance steel plates of each cylinder are ascertained as described before.
1. Place dial gauge with control ring - 72.3 mm - on level support and set it to „0“.
(Pretension)
2. Remove fuel injection pump from cylinder 1, mount dial gauge with control ring and
turn the engine until the dial gauge shows „0“ again.
The camshaft must be retained in its position.
3. Remove locking screw from below the starting air distributor, pump camshaft gear
wheel up and turn the engine until on flywheel there appears 6.5° ± 0.5° crank angle
before TDC for the in-line engine of the IMO version and 11.5° crank angle
before TDC for the in-line engine with and without eccentric as well as 14°
crank angle before TDC for the Vee-engine which is generally equipped with
eccentrics on rocking lever shafts. During this process the dial gauge must be
observed, it must still show „0“.
Then upon the hydraulic connection to the camshaft gear wheel must be removed by all
means. Do not turn before the hydraulic connection has been removed.
4. Turn the engine once, at 6.5° ± 0.5 mm / 11.5° crank angle before TDC resp. 14°
crank angle before TDC the dial gauge must show again to „0“- position. If
necessary, repeat the procedure. Deviations in firing pressure between the cylinders
can now be equalized by adjusting the rocking lever shafts. For adjusting only the
small covers of the camshaft door must be removed.
Then the two outside bearing brackets can be loosened. The bearing cap of the
central bearing bracket must be removed. After removal a bore Ø 6 mm is visible
serving for adjusting. Turning by 1 mm ≅ abt. 8 bar.

Emergency Start via Master Starting Valve


The classification societies require a possibility for emergency start directly on the engine.
For this reason a mechanical emergency start button is arranged on the master starting
valve.

According to classification society regulations the emergency start systems must work
without intervention of the safety system. By actuating the emergency start button the
entire automatic starting interlock is, therefore, bypassed! Starting air is then admitted
directly to the engine, even with barring device engaged and/or other starting interlock
criteria.

In order to prevent operating errors and the related risks, a warning sign is to be fitted to
the master starting valve at a clearly visible position.
