Repair work on complex add-on units should be entrusted to our customer service or to the customer service
of the manufacturing company. These units are mentioned specically in the text.

The repair jobs are divided up into sections and subsections. Each subsection starts with a page of jobs to
do in advance. The jobs to do in advance contain a summary of the main prerequisites for the repair section
in question. The detailed description of work can follow the jobs to do in advance.

Important instructions concerning technical safety and the safety of personnel are specically highlighted, as
indicated below.
CAUTION
Type and source of danger
• Refers to working and operating procedures which must be followed exactly in order to avoid
exposing people to risk.
WARNING
Type and source of danger
• Refers to working and operating procedures which must be followed exactly in order to avoid
serious or irreparable damage to property.

NOTES ON SAFETY

General
Working with engines and the necessary service products does not pose any problems provided the people
entrusted with operation, maintenance and repair have been trained accordingly and actively keep their minds
on the job.

Personnel in training or instruction or who are undergoing general education are not allowed to work on the
unit unless they are permanently supervised by an experienced person.

The following sections include summaries of important regulations listed according to major topics. The
intention is to provide the knowledge needed to avoid accidents which could lead to injury, damage and
environmental pollution. They represent only a small excerpt from the wide range of accident prevention
regulations and cannot replace these. It goes without saying that all other safety regulations must be
followed and that the corresponding action must be taken.

Additional direct references to danger are contained in the instructions at points where there is a potential
danger.

Accidents may happen in spite of all precautionary measures having been taken. In such an eventuality,
obtain immediate medical assistance from a doctor. This is particularly important if the accident involves skin
contact with corrosive acid, fuel penetration under the skin, scalding by hot oil, antifreeze spraying into eyes,
etc.

AE 4 2nd edition 9
INTRODUCTION

1. Regulations for preventing accidents leading to injury to personnel

Checking, setting and repair work

– Secure units during their removal.


– Keep units, ladders, stairs, steps and the surrounding area free from oil and grease.
Accidents caused by slipping can have very serious consequences.
Only authorised technical personnel are allowed to perform inspection,
adjustment and repair work
– Switch off the battery master switch during assembly work.
– During maintenance and repair work, make certain that the engine cannot be started
inadvertently by unauthorised personnel.
– Only authorised personnel are permitted to start and operate the engine.

Operating the engine


– Only authorised personnel are permitted to start and operate the engine.
– Do not approach moving parts of a running engine too closely.
Do not wear baggy clothing.
– Ensure adequate ventilation if you are working in enclosed spaces.
– Do not touch units with your bare hands when they are at operating temperature.
Danger of burns!
Always wear protective gloves when changing oil (in units at operating temperature)
in particular.
– Do not open the coolant circuit unless the engine is cool.
– The tools must be approved by MAN and be in good technical condition.

Suspended loads
– Do not lift heavy parts without assistance. Use suitable tools.
Procedure:
– Carefully attach individual parts and larger assemblies to lifting tackle prior to
exchanging them, in order to rule out any danger.
– Only use suitable lifting gear that is in perfect working order. Use lifting devices
with sufcient load-carrying capacity.
– Only ever use the crane hook eyelets provided for connecting the crane lifting
tackle when lifting the engine.
– No-one is allowed to stand under an engine suspended from a crane hook. Keep
all lifting tackle in good condition.

Working on high-pressure lines


– Do not attempt to tighten or loosen pipe lines and hoses when they are under
pressure (e.g. lubrication circuit, coolant circuit and hydraulic oil circuit):
Fluid spraying out represents an injury hazard!

10 AE 4 2nd edition
INTRODUCTION

Work on the electrical system


– Make sure the batteries are rmly connected before starting the engine.
– Do no disconnect the batteries whilst the engine is running.
– Do not start the engine unless all the connections to the electronic control unit are in
place.
– Do not use a boost-charger to start the engine. Only render starting assistance with
separate batteries.
– The battery terminals must be disconnected for boost-charging the batteries. Comply
with the operating instructions for the boost-charger.
– Disconnect the batteries before starting electric welding work, and connect both
cables (+ and -) rmly together.
– Do not disconnect or connect the connections of the control unit unless the electrical
system is switched off.
– Take care when connecting the control unit to its electrical power supply.
Cross-polarity, e.g. caused by incorrect connection to the batteries, can lead to
irreparable damage to the control unit.
– Tighten connections on the injection system to the prescribed tightening torques.
– Remove the control units if you are expecting them to be exposed to temperatures
in excess of 80 °C (e.g. drying oven).
– Only use suitable test cables for taking measurements on plug connections.
– Telephones and radios not connected to an external aerial can lead to malfunctions
in the on-board electronics and thereby impair the operational safety of the engine.

Caution! Battery acid is poisonous and corrosive!


– Comply with the manufacturer’s regulations.
– Wear appropriate protective clothing (gloves) when handling batteries.
Do not tilt batteries, acid may leak out.
– Measure voltage only using suitable measurement devices! The input resistance of
the measurement device must be at least 10 MΩ.
– The ignition must be switched off before the wiring harness plugs of the electronic
control units are disconnected or connected up!

Be careful as battery gases are explosive!


– Oxyhydrogen gas may form in enclosed battery boxes. Take particular care after
the engine has been running for a long period and after charging the batteries with a
battery charger.
– Avoid short circuits caused by polarity reversal or by placing metal objects (spanners,
mole grips, etc.) on the battery terminals.
– Disconnect the batteries or recharge them every 4 weeks if the engine is not in use.
– When the batteries are disconnected this gas may be ignited by sparks produced by
other continuously operating consumers that have not been shut down. Ventilate the
battery box adequately before disconnecting the batteries!

AE 4 2nd edition 11
INTRODUCTION

Electric welding
– Note the welding codes of practice.
– Connect the “ANTIZAP SERVICE SENTRY” protection device (MAN item number
80.78010.0002) as described in the instructions accompanying the device.
– If this device is not available, disconnect the batteries and connect the positive cable
to the negative cable in order to make a conductive connection.
– Always earth the welding equipment as close as possible to the welding area. Do not
lay the cables to the welding equipment in parallel to electrical cables in the vehicle.
– Disconnect the control units.

Painting
– If paint spraying is to be carried out, do not expose the electronic components to
high temperatures (max. 95 °C) for more than brief periods; a time of up to 2 hours
is permissible at a maximum of 85 °C.
– Disconnect the batteries.
– Remove sensitive electrical components
– Screw connections of the high-pressure part of the injection system are not allowed
to be painted. Danger of dirt getting in during repair work.

2. Notes on preventing damage and premature wear on units

General
– Engines are built exclusively for the application corresponding to the scope of supply – as dened by the
equipment manufacturer – (designated use):
– Designated use also includes compliance with the operating, maintenance and repair conditions specied
by the manufacturer. The engine is only allowed to be used, maintained and serviced by people who are
familiar with this work and have been informed about the dangers.
– Independent modications to the engine will result in the manufacturer’s liability for resulting damage being
rendered null and void.
Similarly, tampering with the injection and control system can affect the unit’s performance and exhaust-gas
characteristics. As a result, there is no longer any guarantee that statutory environmental protection
regulations will be complied with.
– If a fault occurs during operation, determine its cause immediately and correct the problem before the fault
can get any worse.
– Clean the units thoroughly before repairs. Ensure that no dirt, sand or foreign objects can get into the units
whilst carrying out repairs.
– Only use genuine spare parts. Fitting parts made by other companies can lead to severe damage, and the
workshop that did the work will be responsible for it. See the section entitled “Limited liability for accessories
and parts”.
– Never run a unit dry, in other words always make sure that it has been lled with oil before running it.
– Never run engines without coolant.
– Apply a suitable information sign to units that are not ready to be operated.
– Only use service products specied by MAN, otherwise the manufacturer warranty will be invalidated!
For general information about service products, refer to the publication entitled “Service products for MAN
diesel engines”.
Details of approved products can be found online at:
https://mmrepro.mn.man.de/bstwebapp/BSTServlet
– Do not ll engine/gear oil above the maximum level mark. Do not exceed the maximum permitted operational
tilt.
– Severe damage to the unit could result from failure to follow these regulations.

3. Limited liability

General
All of the data and information in this manual were compiled taking into account the applicable standards and
regulations, the state of the art, and our vast experience and knowledge.

MAN shall not be liable for any damaged resulting from:

– Failure to follow the instructions in this manual


– Non-intended use

12 AE 4 2nd edition
INTRODUCTION

The obligations agreed in the delivery contract, the General Terms and Conditions of Business of MAN and
the statutory regulations applicable at the time of the signing of the contract shall apply.

Taking out of operation and storing


Temporary corrosion protection in accordance with MAN Works Standard M 3069 is required if an engine is
shut down for a relatively long time. The Works Standard can be obtained from our after-sales department at
the Nuremburg plant.

4. Regulations for avoiding injury and environmental contamination

Health protection precautions


– Avoid lengthy, excessive or repeated skin contact with used service uids, service products, thinners or
solvents.
– Protect your skin using a suitable skin protection agent or protective gloves.
– Do not use service uids, service products, thinners or solvents for cleaning your skin.
– Wash dirty skin thoroughly with soap and water.
– Special cleaning agents make it easier to clean dirty hands.
– Apply a greasy skin cream after cleaning your skin.
– Change out of clothing or shoes which have become soaked with oil.
– Never put oil-soaked rags into your clothing pockets.

Disposal of service uids and service products


– Please follow the instructions of your relevant local authority.
– When handling service products, make sure that no service uids leak onto the ground or into the drains
and watercourses.
– Collect different service products in separate containers and dispose of them accordingly.
– Use leak-tight containers when draining service products. Never use food or drinks containers, because
someone might drink the uid inadvertently.
– Before disposing of or recycling waste substances, check with your local environmental department
or recycling centre to ask what the correct method is. Incorrectly disposing of waste can damage the
environment.
Take care to dispose of used service products properly.

– Service products can damage groundwater quality –

5. Information for working on the common rail system

Accident prevention

A jet of fuel can cut through the skin. Risk of re due to fuel atomisation.
– Never undo the screwed connections on the fuel high-pressure side of the common-rail system whilst the
engine is running (injection line from the high-pressure pump to/on the rail and on the cylinder head to the
injector).
– Avoid standing near the running engine.

Whilst the engine is running, the lines are constantly carrying fuel under a pressure of up to 1800 bar.
– Before opening the screwed connections, wait for at least ve minutes so that the system can be
depressurised.
– Check depressurisation of the rail using MAN-cats if necessary.

Danger of injury!
– Do not touch the live parts at the injector electrical connection whilst the engine is running.

AE 4 2nd edition 13
INTRODUCTION

Special instructions for people with pacemakers


– Any changes made to the original engine cabling can result in the limit values specied in pacemaker safety
regulations being exceeded, e.g. non-twisted injector cables or installing the test box (contact box).
– People with pacemakers must stay at least 20 cm away from the running engine.

Cleanliness
Diesel-injection systems consist of precision engineered components that are subject to extreme loads. Due
to this high-precision technology, it is necessary to ensure the greatest possible cleanliness during all work
on the fuel system. Even dirt particles over 0.002 mm can cause component failure.

Before commencing work, you must therefore ensure the following measures without fail:

Danger of damage due to dirt ingress


– Before working on the clean side of the fuel system, clean the engine and the engine compartment (e.g.
steam cleaner). The fuel system must be closed during this process.
– Visually inspect the fuel system for leaks or damage.
– Do not spray the steam cleaner directly onto electrical components, or else afx covers.
– Place the engine in a clean area in the workshop where there will be no work going on that could throw up
dust (grinding, welding work, brake repairs, brake and dynamometer tests, etc.).
– Avoid air movements (possible swirling up of dust due to starting of engines, the workshop
heating/ventilation system, due to draughts etc.).
– Clean and dry the area of the still closed fuel system using compressed air.
– Use a suitable extractor unit (industrial extractor unit) to remove loose dirt particles such as paint chippings
and insulating material.
– Areas of the engine compartment from which dirt particles could become detached must be covered with a
new, clean covering lm.
– Before removing any components, wash your hands and put on clean working clothes.
It is mandatory to comply with the following instructions during work:

Danger of damage due to dirt ingress


– Using compressed air for cleaning is not allowed once the clean side of the fuel system has been opened.
– During assembly, remove loose dirt using a suitable extractor unit (industrial extractor unit).
– Only lint-free cleaning cloths are allowed to be used on the fuel system.
– Clean tools and equipment before starting work.
– Only use tools that show no signs of damage (cracked chrome coatings).
– Do not use materials such as cloths, cardboard or wood when removing and installing components as these
materials can produce particles and bres.
– If the undoing of connections causes the paint to chip (due to possible excess paint), carefully remove these
paint chippings before fully undoing the connection.
– All parts removed from the clean side of the fuel system must immediately have their apertures sealed
with suitable plugs.
– This sealing material must be packed to protect it from dust before it is used, and must be disposed of after
one use.
– Following this, the components must be carefully stored in a clean, sealed container.
– Never apply used cleaning or test uids to these components.
– New parts must not be removed from their original packaging until immediately before use.
– Work on removed components may only be carried out in a suitably equipped workplace.
– If removed parts are shipped, always use the new part's original packaging.

INTRODUCTION

Mounting gaskets
Gaskets are often inserted with sealing compounds or adhesives in order to facilitate assembly or to offer a
better seal. Particularly if parts with different thermal coefcients of expansion are connected together (e.g.
aluminium and cast iron), this can lead to the seal migrating during operation and give rise to leaks.

Example: The cover of the front crankshaft oil seal. In this case, the use of a sealing compound or adhesive
causes the gasket to be pushed inwards over time due to the differences in thermal expansion. Oil leakage
occurs which may under certain circumstances be ascribed to the shaft seal.

Gaskets can only be tted correctly provided the following points are adhered to:
– Only use genuine MAN gaskets.
– Make sure the mating faces are undamaged and clean.
– Do not use adhesives or sealing compounds. If necessary, to facilitate installation, use a little grease to
stick the gasket to the part to be mounted.
– Tighten the bolts evenly to the specied tightening torque.

Installation of O-rings
– Only use genuine MAN O-rings.
– Make sure the mating faces are undamaged and clean.
– Coat O-rings with engine oil to MAN Standard 3277 when tting them.

Engine overhaul

General information regarding engine overhauls


A range of very different factors affect the engine service life. It is therefore not possible to indicate the exact
number of operating hours before a major overhaul is due.

In our judgement, it is not advisable to open an engine or perform a major overhaul if the engine has
good compression values and the following operating values have not changed signicantly since they were
measured and taken during the initial start-up:

– Charge pressure
– Exhaust temperature
– Coolant and lubricating oil temperature
– Oil pressure and oil consumption
– Smoke characteristics
The following criteria have a major inuence on the engine service life:

– Correct power setting for the application type


– Correct installation
– Approval of the installation by authorised personnel
– Regular maintenance as per the maintenance schedule
– Selection and quality of lubricating oil, fuel and coolant as per the publication entitled “Service products for
MAN diesel engines”

Taking into operation following an engine overhaul


Pressure application process

It is essential to ll engines with lubricating oil using the pressure application process in dry condition before
start-up following a repair. This process can also be used in the case of damage and cause assessments.

In all engines that have not undergone pressure application, the risk of premature bearing surface damage
is very high, since the lubricating oil drawn from the oil sump by the oil pump takes a relatively long time to
reach the individual bearing points.

Such preliminary damage may not lead to bearing failure immediately, but it can impair correct functioning of
the bearings and shorten the service life.

AE 4 2nd edition 15
INTRODUCTION

Schematic representation of the oil ow in engines which have not undergone pressure application

If the engine undergoes pressure application, the following benets are achieved:

– All engine parts are lubricated before starting, and a lm of lubricant can form in the bearing before the
crankshaft even starts turning. This prevents overlay damage.
– Unwanted oil loss – whether it be caused by excessive bearing clearance, leakages in the crankcase or
non-sealed bores in the crankcase – can be detected immediately. In this case, mount the engine on an
assembly trolley, remove the oil sump and install a suitable oil collecting container under the crankcase so
that the bearings are visible.

16 AE 4 2nd edition
INTRODUCTION

Procedure:

During pressure application, the entire oil quantity is pressed into the engine oil circuit. The operating pressure
is used as the reference value for the press-in pressure. This is not allowed to be exceeded. The electrical
oil pump is connected to the engine oil circuit at the oil modules.

Connect the pressure hose for the electrical oil pump to the oil modules (1) and (2).

Press half of the entire oil quantity into the engine via the left oil module and the other half via the right oil
module, see Filling the engine with oil using the pressure application process, 416.

Engine, general
The 8- and 12-cylinder diesel engines described here are liquid-cooled, 4-stroke diesel engines with 2-stage
exhaust turbocharger and intercooler. The engines operated using the common rail high-pressure injection
system in conjunction with EDC 7 (Electronic Diesel Control).

Crankcase
The crankcase consists of the crankcase upper section and the crankcase lower section. Both sections cast
from different special cast irons. The wet cylinder liners made from special, highly wear-resistant centrifugal
casting are exchangeable. The cylinder liners are sealed at the bottom using elastomer sealing rings. At the
rear of the crankcase, there is a ywheel housing. At the front of the crankcase, there is a housing cover.
The ywheel housing and housing cover are made of aluminium. The radial shaft seals are installed in the
housing cover and the ywheel housing.

Crankshaft
The crankshaft is forged in a die using high-quality, micro-alloyed steel. It has 6 or 10 mounted counterweights
to balance the masses. The crankshaft is mounted in ve or seven bearings in the crankcase. The crankshaft
journals and connecting rod bearing journals are mounted in ready-to-install three-component bearings. The
axial bearing is provided by thrust bearings in the last bearing seat at the ywheel end. The connecting rod
bearings are supplied with oil via a bore in the crankshaft bearing.

Connecting rods (cracked connecting rods)


The "cracked" connecting rods are precision forged in a die using quenched and tempered steel. The large
connecting rod eye is split diagonally by "cracking" the connecting rod bearing cap. The surface structure

AE 4 2nd edition 25
INTRODUCTION

resulting from cracking results in a tooth engagement effect between the connecting rod bearing cap and the
connecting rod with a precise, non-interchangeable t and high lateral stability.

Pistons
3-ring steel pistons are used. The pistons have a cooling duct for relieving the thermal load. This area is
covered by exible metal containing a bore into which the oil jet from the oil injection nozzles is injected for
cooling. The ring set comprises one half keystone ring and taper-face ring each as compression rings as
well as a double-bevelled ring as oil scraper ring. The pistons can be removed from above together with the
connecting rods.

Camshaft
The camshaft is forged from steel and induction hardened. It is mounted in ve or seven bearings in the
crankcase. The camshaft is driven by timing gears that are installed in the ywheel housing.

Engine lubrication
The engine is lubricated by forced-feed lubrication for all bearing points. The engine oil lter and the oil cooler
are grouped together as an oil module. The oil level in the oil sump is measured using a dipstick.

Cooling system
The cooling circuit is a thermostat-controlled forced-circulation cooling system. The maintenance-free coolant
pump is installed on the end face in the housing cover and is driven by a separate gear set. The thermostats
are housed above in the two-section thermostat housing. The thermostats consist of an exchangeable insert
with expansion element.

The coolant pump is mounted at the rear left on the ywheel housing. It supplies coolant to the intercooler
and the heat exchanger.

Cylinder head
The D28 engine is equipped with a camshaft with overhead valves (OHV). Engines in series D28 are equipped
with individual cylinder heads made from special cast iron as well as shrink-tted valve seat rings and
pressed-in exchangeable valve guides. The valve guides have valve stem seals at all four valves. The
cylinder heads are secured with six high-strength external hexagon round bolts (cylinder head bolts). The
single-layer steel cylinder head gasket with elastomer elements has a specially designed combustion chamber
seal.

Intake and exhaust system


The exhaust manifold is cooled by coolant and has dry exhaust pipes attached on the inside. It is fastened to
the cylinder head using heat-resistant bolts. The wastegate valve for the turbocharger for the high-pressure
stage (2nd stage) is mounted on the continuation of the exhaust manifold (connection housing) that is cooled
by coolant. From the high-pressure stage, the exhaust gases pass through a coolant-cooled manifold into the
turbocharger of the low-pressure stage (1st stage). The wastegate valve is directly controlled by the charge
air pressure. The turbocharger is lubricated by the main ow oil circuit of the engine, which supplies oil to the
oil pressure port on the turbochargers.

The intake air passes through the air lter to the low-pressure turbocharger (1st stage). The charge air
following precompression is intercooled as it passes through the low-pressure intercooler before passing
on to the high-pressure stage (2nd stage). Following the high-pressure stage, the charge air is once again
cooled in the high-pressure intercooler and then supplied to the engine.

Fuel system
The fuel system consists of a low-pressure system and a high-pressure system. The low-pressure system
includes the fuel lines, the hand pump and the fuel lters. The interface to the high-pressure system is the
high-pressure pump.

High-pressure system
The high-pressure system consists of the ow-rate-controlled high-pressure pump with ange-mounted fuel
pump and the rail with rail pressure sensor and pressure limiting valve. Solenoid valve-controlled injectors
with rail connections and high-pressure lines which meet the necessary requirements are also installed.

Injection pressure generation and fuel injection are separate in the high-pressure system. The injection
pressure is generated by the high-pressure pump, irrespective of the engine speed and the required injection
quantity. The injection quantity is available in the rail for injection via the injectors. The high-pressure pump

26 AE 4 2nd edition
INTRODUCTION

delivery quantity is controlled by a proportional valve. The injection point and the injection quantity are
calculated in the engine control unit and implemented by the solenoid valve-controlled injectors.

The solenoid valve-controlled injectors allow multiple injections:

1 Pilot injection to improve combustion, reduce combustion noise and reduce peak combustion pressures.
2 Main injection to introduce the energy for the required engine power output.

Always ensure absolute cleanliness both in and around the working area whenever carrying out work on the
highly sensitive high-pressure system.

Injectors
The injectors are controlled by solenoid valve. They are arranged vertically in the cylinder head and clamped
with a pressure ange in the cylinder head.

Starter
The starter is a sliding-gear starter. When the starter is operated, the pre-engaged starter guides the pinion
into the ring gear by means of a starter solenoid. A relay is mounted in the starter for starter control.

Alternator
A compact, powerful, low-noise alternator is mounted for power generation. The alternator is equipped with
a multifunction controller. The voltage is controlled depending on the temperature, the battery charge level
and the current power consumption. The alternator is electrically insulated when mounted.

MALFUNCTIONS AND THEIR PROBABLE CAUSES

We recommend the following:

Repairs can only be considered complete when both the problem that occurred and the possible causes
have been remedied. Finding out what caused a problem is often more difcult than remedying the problem
itself. We therefore recommend that, before “removing and dismantling”, you have the malfunction described
in detail. Then narrow down the probable causes by asking specic questions. Once this is done, use the
chart and your own experience to examine the probable causes one after the other and rectify the problem.
This method helps reduce repairs to acceptable levels and counteracts possible complaints regarding “rash”
exchange of parts and expensive labour time and downtime.

Note:

The following chart is designed to serve as a memory aid for experts, the aim being to ensure that no probable
causes are overlooked when troubleshooting. The specialist is expected to be very familiar with the Repair
Manual for the engine as well as the corresponding Operator's Manual and “Service products for MAN diesel
engines”.
