Introduction
This Operator's manual describes the operation
and maintenance of Scania industrial engines.
The engines are direct-injection, liquid-cooled,
four-stroke turbocharged diesel engines.
The engines are available with different output
and engine speed settings. Engine power for the
engine ordered is indicated on a plate located on
the engine control unit.
Note:
Only standard components are described in the
operator's manual. Information about special
equipment is contained in instructions from the
various manufacturers.
Note:

and repair.

Certification
An emissions certified engine fulfils the emis-
sions requirements for a particular range of ap-
plication.
On each emissions certified engine there is a la-
bel which shows which requirements the engine
fulfils. Scania guarantees that each such engine
fulfils the emissions requirements for the range
of application for which it is certified.
The following are required for the certified en-
gine to fulfil the emissions requirements once it
has been taken into service:
• Maintenance is to be carried out in accord-
ance with the instructions in this Operator's
manual.
• Maintenance and repairs of injection equip-
ment are to be carried out by an authorised
Scania workshop.
• The engine may only be modified with equip-
ment that has been approved by Scania.
• Seals may be broken and setting data edited
only once approval has been granted by Sca-
nia. Modifications may be made by author-
ised personnel only.
• Modifications affecting the exhaust and in-
take systems must be approved by Scania.

must be established immediately.
