raised on a jack only. Follow the instructions in
the Workshop Manual, Lifting and supporting
on stands.
Safety measures
• Use reliable and correctly dimensioned
stands, struts and locks with standard
locking devices.
• Stands and struts must be sturdy.
• Lifting tools must have been inspected and
approved for use.

105 874
Small cracks in the poly-V-belt can be accepted.

Engine
• Loosen the poly-V-belt from the pulleys,

but leave it around the fan shaft, so that the
direction of rotation of the poly-V-belt is
not changed.
• Check the poly-V-belt carefully. If the
poly-V-belt has one or more cracks, renew
it.
105 875
If there are large cracks or if pieces of the
poly-V-belt are missing, renew it.
• Also check wear on the poly-V-belt.
112 931
The poly-V-belt shows signs of wear. Can be
refitted.
112 932
The poly-V-belt is worn down to the chord. The

poly-V-belt must be renewed.

Engine
1-06 Checking belt tension
Automatic belt tensioner

The belt tensioner must not be adjusted, opened,
repaired or modified in any way. If the belt
tensioner does not provide sufficient tensioning
of the poly-V-belt, it must be renewed.
Noise in the belt drive

Check the belt tensioner by slowly pressing it
from the belt until it stops. Then, slowly bring
the belt tensioner back to the initial position.
Repeat 2-3 times. Jamming or jerking of the belt
tensioner is not permissible.

1-07 Valve clearances and PDE unit injectors, 9 litre

engine with 5 cylinders
Specifications
Unit injector measurement (cold engine) 66.9+/-0.1 mm
Valve clearance, intake valve 0.45 mm
Valve clearance, exhaust valve 0.70 mm
Tightening torques
Adjusting screw lock nut on rocker arm for unit injector 39 Nm
Adjusting screw lock nut on rocker arm for valves 35 Nm
Note: Check and adjust the valve clearance and

unit injectors with the engine cold.

Engine
Order of adjustment
Adjustment applies to a 9 litre engine with
5 cylinders.
In order for the adjusting to be carried out on the
correct revolution, proceed as follows:
1 Rotate the flywheel so that the 72° mark on
the flywheel can be seen in the lower
window of the flywheel housing whilst
valve overlap occurs on cylinder 5.
2 Then turn the flywheel clockwise so that it
passes TDC Down (0°) by about 20° and
then turn it anticlockwise until
TDC Down (0°) is visible in the bottom
window on the flywheel housing. The
reason for turning past TDC down (0°) and
then back is to counteract any play in the
gears.
You are now on the first revolution and can
adjust the valves and unit injectors according to
the following table.
3 Rotate the flywheel anti-clockwise using
tool 99 309 so that the mark on the flywheel
is visible in the lower window of the
flywheel housing.

IMPORTANT! The engine temperature must be

around 80°C when checking and adjusting the
lambda.
1 Run the engine until it reaches normal

operating temperature.
2 Check that the idling speed is approx.
550 rpm. Adjust idling speed as required by
turning the idling screw 1.
3 Take a sensor voltage reading with the

multimeter. It should read between 1.60 V
and 1.90 V at 550 rpm.
4 Adjust the lambda value if necessary by
turning the mixture screw 1 on the gas
mixer. If the correct lambda value cannot be
set, take off the outer diaphragm of the gas
mixer and remove or add shims on the gas
valve.

Fuel system
Checking lambda with the engine under load.
1 Attach the test equipment as described in

2 Set restrictor 1 on the gas mixer inlet half
way between the L and R marks if the
engine has not been adjusted before.
3 Measure at wide open throttle acceleration

in a high gear from approx. 1000 r/min till
2000 r/min. Read the sensor voltage at
200 rpm intervals from 1000 rpm.
4 Make a copy of the diagram and plot the
readings. The existing curves indicate
minimum and maximum values. The
thin-line curves indicate limits at 150 bar
gas pressure and the bold ones at 50 bar gas
pressure.
The X axis shows the engine speed in rpm

The Y axis shows the sensor voltage in volts

Fuel system
5 Adjust the gas pressure if the sensor voltage

is too high or too low across the whole
engine speed range.
6 Unscrew the plugs and adjust the gas
pressure with the set screws on the low
pressure regulators. Adjust both regulators
the same amount. Turning clockwise will
increase the gas pressure and lower the
sensor voltage. Do not screw in the set
screw more than 16 turns from fully
unscrewed position.
Note: Screwing in the set screw more than 16

turns will cause the spring seat to come loose
from the screw.
IMPORTANT! The plugs must be refitted in the

low pressure regulators before testing. Leaks
can affect the lambda value.
7 If the adjustment range of the screw is

insufficient, the regulator spring should be
renewed.

5 Check for traces of soot on the filter unit

outlet side. If this is the case, the filter unit
probably is damaged and must be changed.
6 Clean the filter unit as follows:
7 Carefully shake the filter unit to remove all
loose ash deposits from the filter unit cells.
8 Using an industrial vacuum cleaner,
remove all ash deposits and soot from
visible surfaces both on the catalytic
converter and the filter unit.
9 Inspect the surfaces on the catalytic
converter and filter unit to check for:
- Cracks in the surface or pitting.
- That the ceramic filter is firmly seated in
the outer container.
10 If no defects can be found on the filter unit,

turn it 180 degrees and fit it. Refer to the
illustration.
11 Connect an extractor to the exhaust pipe.
121 254
Start the engine and rev it a couple of
times. This prevents any ash residues from
penetrating into the workshop after the
filter unit has been turned.
Discarded particle filters and filter units, and
ash deposits and soot from the filter must be
disposed of according to local legislation.

IMPORTANT! A correct fluid level is essential

for the function and service life of the gearbox.
Both too high and too low a fluid level is
harmful for the gearbox.
Checking a cold gearbox

The objective of checking on a cold gearbox is Dipstick location
to determine whether the correct amount of fluid
is in the gearbox so that it can be safely warmed
up. A final check of the fluid level can only be
carried out when the gearbox is warm.
1 Start the engine and run it at idle speed for
about one minute.

Depress the brake pedal before

proceeding to step 2 below! It is not
enough to only use the parking brake to
keep the vehicle stationary.
2 Select position D and increase the engine

speed to 1000-1500 rpm for 30 seconds.
Then, select position R to remove any air
from the system. Air in the system can give
incorrect results.
3 Then, select neutral N and leave the engine
idling.

! WARNING!
Disengage the power take-off if

applicable so that the rotating shaft is
stationary. The shaft is located close to
the oil dipstick and can cause personal
injury if rotating.
4 Adjust the oil level so that it is in the range

between "COLD FULL" and "COLD
ADD". Fill through the oil filler pipe (or the
dipstick pipe). Drain off fluid if the level is
too high. Dipstick graduation
5 Warm up the gearbox and carry out a final
check of the fluid level as described in
"Checking a warm gearbox".
Checking a warm gearbox

The gearbox must be warm in order to check the
fluid level reliably. The check can be carried out
in two ways: either using the oil dipstick in the
same way as for a cold gearbox check, or
electronically from the driver's seat. The
following description applies to checking the
fluid level electronically.
1 The following conditions must be fulfilled
irrespective of control type:
- The engine must be idling and the vehicle
on flat ground
- The oil temperature must be between 60°C
and 100°C
- The drive mode selector must be in
position N
- The propeller shaft must be stationary
- The fluid level sensor must be free from
