Important information

Serious risk of injury


When working on the engine, for example when adjusting drive belts and the clutch, or when changing the
oil, it is important not to start the engine. The engine could be damaged, but more importantly there is a
serious risk of injury.
Secure the starting device or disconnect a battery cable before working on the engine. This is especially im-
portant if the engine has a remote starter or automatic starting.

WARNING!

This warning symbol and text can be found next to those maintenance items where it is particularly impor-
tant to bear in mind the risk of injury.

The more we know about you, your company and your equipment, the more effectively we can adapt our
services to you. If you have started to use a new Scania engine, it is very important that you send in the war-
ranty start report to us immediately. Quite simply, we need to register all the details on engine ownership
etc., so we can monitor it for you.
You can report the start of the warranty on the Scania website: www.scania.com.

Note:
If you do not send in the warranty report, the engine is not covered by the accompanying Scania warranty.

Also fill in below the details you enter in the warranty report. These details can facilitate contact with a
workshop, for example. The engine serial number is on the engine data plate and is also engraved on the

Coolant temperature

IMPORTANT!

An excessive coolant temperature can cause en-


gine damage.

Normal coolant temperature during operation is


90 to 95°C/194 to 203°F for engines with a heat
exchanger and 83 to 88°C/181 to 190°F for en-
gines with keel cooling.
Alarm levels are set in the engine control unit.
The default setting for the lowest and highest
limit values for high engine coolant temperature
are 95°C/203°F and 105°C/221°F.
The high coolant temperature alarm has the fol-
lowing functions:
• Alarm only.
• Alarm and torque reduction at the lowest lim-
it value.

OPM 260 en-GB 20

• Alarm at the lowest limit value and engine


shutdown at the highest limit value.
• Alarm, torque reduction at the lowest limit
value and engine shutdown at the highest lim-

shutdown at the highest limit value with the
possibility of engine shutdown override con-
trol.
• Alarm, torque reduction at the lowest limit
value and engine shutdown at the highest lim-
it value, with the possibility of engine shut-

If run for extended periods under an extremely


light load, the engine may have difficulty in
maintaining the coolant temperature. At an in-
creased load the coolant temperature rises to the
normal value.

Oil pressure
Normal oil pressure during operation is 3-6 bar
(43.5-87 psi). The lowest permitted oil pressure
when idling is 0.7 bar (10.2 psi).
The engine management system issues an alarm
when the oil pressure has been under the limit
value for over 15 seconds, at the following limit
values:
• At an engine speed below 600 rpm and an oil
pressure below 0.7 bar (10.2 psi).
• At an engine speed below 1,200 rpm and an
oil pressure below 1.85 bar (26.8 psi).
• At an engine speed above 2,100 rpm and an
oil pressure below 2.8 bar (40.6 psi).

With engine speeds between these limits, the en-


gine management system issues a low oil pres-
sure alarm at an interpolated value of the two
closest engine speeds above.
The incorrect oil pressure alarm has the follow-
ing functions:
• Alarm only.
• Alarm and torque reduction by 30%.
• Alarm and engine shutdown.
• Alarm and engine shutdown override control.

Note:
High oil pressure (above 6 bar/87 psi) is normal
if the engine is cold when started.

If the lamp comes on during operation: Check
and adjust the alternator drive belt according to
the instructions in the section Checking the drive
belt.
If the charging indicator lamp is still on, this
could be due to an alternator fault or a fault in the
electrical system.

Belt transmission
When the belt transmission is new, it may make
a squeaking noise when running. This noise is
normal and disappears after 50-100 hours of op-
eration. The noise does not affect the service life
of the belt transmission.

Engine shutdown

IMPORTANT!

There is risk of the oil boiling and of damage to


the turbocharger if the engine is switched off
without cooling. The power must not be
switched off before the engine has stopped.

Note:
The battery voltage must remain on for a few
seconds after the 15 voltage is switched off so
that the control units can store the values and
switch to standby mode.
10 prohibited engine shutdowns in a row will
cause a torque reduction (70% of fuel quantity).
Reset the engine by switching it off correctly
once.

1. Run the engine without a load for a few min-


utes if it has been run continuously with a
heavy load.
2. Switch off the engine.

Checks after running

WARNING!

Secure the starting device or disconnect a battery


cable before working on the engine. If the engine
starts unexpectedly, there is a serious risk of in-
jury.
There is always a risk of sustaining burns when
an engine is hot. Particularly hot parts are engine
manifolds, turbochargers, oil sumps, as well as
hot coolant and oil in pipes and hoses.

IMPORTANT!

Check the coolant level following the first start.


Top up with coolant as necessary.

1. Check that the power supply has been cut.


2. Top up the fuel tank. Make sure that the filler
cap and the area round the filler opening are
clean to avoid contamination of the fuel.
3. If there is a risk of freezing, the cooling sys-
tem must contain enough glycol. See the sec-
tion Risk of freezing.
4. If the temperature is below 0°C (32°F): Pre-
pare for the next start by connecting the en-
gine heater (if fitted).

Oil grade
Scania LDF stands for the Scania test standard
Long Drain Field. Scania LDF oils have been
carefully selected after extensive testing. The ap-
proval is only granted to the highest quality en-
gine oils available on the market.

Recommended engine oil


Scania Oil LDF-3
Scania Oil LDF-2
Scania Oil LDF
Scania Oil E7

The engine oil must fulfil the following quality


requirements:
• ACEA E5/API CI-4.
• ACEA E7/API CI-4 +.
• For engines not run on low-sulphur fuel, the
TBN (Total Base Number) should be at least
12 (ASTM D2896).
• Oils with a low ash content (ACEA E9/API
CJ4) are not recommended.

Check with your oil supplier that the oil meets


these requirements.
If the engine is used in areas of the world where
engine oil with ACEA or API classification is
not available, the oil grade must be measured in
actual operation. In this case, contact the nearest
workshop with qualified personnel.

Oil analysis
To be able to extend the oil change intervals us-
ing an oil analysis, Scania LDF-3 and LDF-2 oils
must be used. Certain laboratories offer engine
oil analysis.
The following conditions must remain fulfilled
when the oil is changed:
• Viscosity at 100°C (212°F): max. ±20% of
original value of the fresh oil.
• TBN (in accordance with ASTM D4739): >
3.5.
• TBN (in accordance with ASTM D4739): >
TAN (in accordance with ASTM D664).
• Soot (DIN 51452): < 3%.

Such analysis measures the oil’s TBN (Total


Base Number), acidity TAN (Total Acid Num-
ber), fuel dilution, water content, viscosity and
the quantity of particles and soot in the oil.
The result of a series of analyses is used as the
basis for establishing a suitable oil change inter-
val.
If the conditions are changed, a new oil analysis
programme must be carried out to establish new
oil change intervals. Work out the new oil
change interval for the engine in conjunction
with the workshop.

REQUIREMENT!

Only Scania LDF oils may be used in conjunc-


tion with oil analysis and a possible extended oil
change interval.
Depending on the market, the warranty condi-
tions may also change if the oil change intervals
differ from the recommended Scania timetable.

Operational testing only needs to be performed if
you suspect that the centrifugal oil cleaner is not
functioning as it ought to. This may, for exam-
ple, be due to abnormally small deposit on the
paper in the centrifugal oil cleaner in relation to
the distance driven.
1. Run the engine until it reaches normal oper-
ating temperature.
2. Switch off the engine and listen for the sound
from the rotor. It should continue rotating for
a time, even when the engine has stopped.
3. Use your hand to feel if the filter housing is
vibrating.

Coolant
Note:
The coolant should be changed when the cooling
system is cleaned: every 6,000 hours or at least
every five years. See Changing the coolant and
cleaning the cooling system.

The coolant recommended by Scania is a mix-


ture of water with antifreeze (ethylene glycol)
and corrosion inhibitor. The coolant has several
characteristics which are important for the oper-
ation of the cooling system:
• Corrosion protection.
• Antifreeze.
• Increases the boiling point.

Water
Use only pure fresh water that is free of particles,
sludge and other impurities. If there is uncertain-
ty about the quality of the water, Scania recom-
mends use of Scania ready-mixed coolants. See
the section Recommended Scania products.

OPM 260 en-GB 44

Cooling system

Antifreeze and corrosion protection


The antifreeze and corrosion protection used in
Scania engines should be antifreeze (ethylene
glycol) and corrosion inhibitor.
Only Scania coolant or another product with
functioning antifreeze and corrosion protection
may be used in Scania engines. Products not ful-
filling the demands in this section may lead to
faults and damage occurring in the cooling sys-
tem. This can lead to the invalidation of Scania's
warranty for faults and damage caused by the use
of inappropriate coolant.

Addition of antifreeze and corrosion


inhibitor to water
The coolant should contain 35-55% by volume
antifreeze (ethylene glycol) and corrosion inhib-
itor. The percentage varies depending on the
need for antifreeze.
A minimum of 35% by volume of Scania anti-
freeze and corrosion protection is needed to pro-
vide sufficient protection against corrosion.

Note:
Too high a dose of antifreeze and corrosion in-
hibitor will increase the amount of sludge and
blockages accumulating in the radiator. Too low
a concentration can lead to corrosion of the cool-
ing system and ice formation at low tempera-
tures.

Measure the ethylene glycol content (antifreeze


and corrosion protection) with a refractometer
following the instructions in the Checking the
coolant's antifreeze and corrosion protection sec-
tion.

Risk of freezing

IMPORTANT!

The engine should not be subjected to heavy


loads if ice starts to form in the cooling system.

If the coolant starts to freeze, the water in the


coolant starts to crystallise and the ethylene gly-
col content in the coolant increases. If freezing
produces a great increase in the amount of ice,
circulation problems could arise. There is no risk
of damage by freezing if the content of Scania
antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor, or an equiva-
lent mixture of a similar product, is at least 35%
by volume.
Minimal ice formation in the coolant sometimes
causes minor problems without any risk of dam-
age. For example, the auxiliary heater may not
work for up to one hour after the engine has been
started.

The following example shows coolant properties
with 30 percent by volume of antifreeze and cor-
rosion inhibitor:
• Ice slush starts to form at -16°C (3°F).
• At -30°C (-22°F), there is a risk of cooling
system malfunction.
• There is no risk of damage by freezing with a
minimum antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor
content of 35 percent by volume.

Example: If the temperature is -16°C (3°F), there


is a risk of damage by freezing if the percentage
of antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor is 20% by
volume. At 30% antifreeze and corrosion protec-
tion by volume the coolant will not contain any
ice.

OPM 260 en-GB 46

Cooling system

Warm climates
In order to retain the corrosion protection and the
higher boiling point, it is essential to use coolant
consisting of water mixed with antifreeze and
corrosion inhibitor (ethylene glycol). This also
applies in countries where the temperature never
drops below 0°C (32°C).
The coolant should always contain 35-55% by
volume of antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor so
that the coolant properties ensure that the coolant
works correctly.

Topping up
Coolant must only be topped up with pre-mixed
coolant. The pre-mixed coolant can either be
concentrate mixed with clean freshwater or pre-
mixed coolant from the factory. Use only pure
fresh water that is free of particles, sludge and
other impurities.

IMPORTANT!

Containers, which are used for mixing coolant,


must be intended for the purpose and free from
any dirt or contaminants. When the containers
not in use they must be kept closed to avoid col-
lecting dirt and dust.

Note:
Within the coolant change interval, coolant may
only be reused if it has been cleaned of dirt,
sludge and particles. If the coolant is contaminat-
ed with oil or fuel, it must not be reused.

35% by volume of Scania antifreeze provides
sufficient protection against corrosion.
Example:
• The total volume of the cooling system is 40
litres.
• The measured concentration of ethylene gly-
col is 35% by volume (freezing point -21°C).
According to the table, there are 14 litres of
ethylene glycol in the cooling system.
• The required concentration of ethylene glycol
is 45% by volume (freezing point -30°C). Ac-
cording to the table, 18 litres of ethylene gly-
col are required in the cooling system.
• Since there are already 14 litres in the cooling
system, 4 litres of ethylene glycol must be
added to the cooling system (18 - 14 = 4 li-
tres).

Checking coolant level

WARNING!

Do not open the coolant filler cap in the expan-


sion tank if the engine is hot. Hot coolant and
steam may spray out and cause burns. If the cap
has to be opened do it slowly to release the pres-
sure before removing the cap.
Use protective gloves as coolant can cause irrita-
tion if it comes in contact with the skin.

IMPORTANT!

It is not permissible to top up large amounts of


coolant via the expansion tank. Filling via the ex-
pansion tank leads to air locks in the cooling sys-
tem which can lead to e.g. cavitation damage to
the coolant pump shaft seal. If a large amount of
coolant needs to be added, follow the instruc-
tions in the section Filling coolant.
Only pour pre-mixed coolant into the cooling
system.

The following instructions apply to Scania ex-


pansion tanks. For other types of expansion
tanks, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
1. Check the coolant level through the sight
glass on the expansion tank.
2. Top up with coolant as necessary.

WARNING!

Avoid skin contact with coolant as this may


cause irritation to the skin. Wear protective gog-
gles and gloves when handling coolant.

IMPORTANT!

Use only pure fresh water that is free of particles,


sludge and other impurities.

1. Pour a small amount of coolant into a con-


tainer and check that the coolant is pure and
clear.
2. Change the coolant if it is contaminated or
cloudy.
3. Measure the antifreeze and corrosion inhibi-
tor content with the refractometer.

The following rules apply to ethylene glycol-


based coolant:
• The antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor content
must be minimum 35 percent by volume for
corrosion protection to be sufficient.
• An antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor content
greater than 55 percent by volume impairs the
ability to protect against frost.
• If ice forms in the coolant, there are disrup-
tions initially, but there is no immediate risk
of damage. The engine should not be subject-
ed to heavy loads if ice starts to form.

Internal cleaning: Removing oil and


grease in the cooling system

Environment

Use a suitable container. Used coolant must be


disposed of as specified in national and interna-
tional laws and regulations.

Always fit a new thermostat and a new cover to


the expansion tank after cleaning, as the oil in the
cooling system destroys the seals. If the engine is
equipped with a coolant filter, also renew this fil-
ter.
It may be necessary to wash it multiple times if
the cooling system is very dirty. One cause of
contamination can be that oil is lying on top of
the coolant and collecting high up in the cooling
system. If several rinses are needed, this is not
necessarily because work has been carried out
incorrectly. Oil residues often need to be rinsed
repeatedly from the expansion tank and the ex-
ternal heating system to be completely clean.
Repeated washing is more effective and prefera-
ble to using higher concentrations of detergent
(max. 10%) or cleaning for a longer period (max
30 minutes).
If only a small amount of dirt has collected in the
expansion tank after cleaning, one extra rinse
and clean of the expansion tank only is usually
sufficient. There is no need to clean the whole
cooling system again.
1. Run the engine until it has reached operating
temperature and then drain the cooling sys-

This procedure applies when the cooling system
has been drained and needs to be filled with a
large amount of coolant.

WARNING!

Use protective gloves as coolant can cause irrita-


tion if it comes in contact with the skin. Hot cool-
ant can also cause scalding.

IMPORTANT!

Mix the coolant as specified in the section head-


ed Coolant.
It is not permissible to top up large amounts of
coolant via the expansion tank. Filling via the ex-
pansion tank leads to air locks in the cooling sys-
tem which can lead to e.g. damage to the coolant
pump shaft seal. If a large amount of coolant
needs to be added, follow the instructions in the
section Filling coolant.
Never fill a large amount of cold coolant in a hot
engine. There is great risk of cracks forming in
the cylinder block and cylinder heads.
Do not start the engine until the correct coolant
level has been obtained. If the engine is started
with an insufficient coolant level, it can damage
the coolant pump shaft seal, which leads to cool-
ant leakage.

1. Open the expansion tank cap.

2. Connect the coolant pump to the filler nipple


in the cylinder block.
3. Connect the pump’s two cable terminals to
the battery’s negative and positive terminals.
Make sure that the filling starts. If the filling
does not start: Change the position of the ca-
ble terminals.
4. Start the engine and run it at idling for
15 minutes.

IMPORTANT!
Filler nipple in the cylinder block.
It is very important that the engine is idling. En-
gine overspeed could damage the coolant pump
shaft seal, which leads to coolant leakage.

5. Switch off the engine and fill with coolant to


the maximum level through the expansion
tank.
Air pockets may still be left in the cooling
system. These will disappear after the engine
has been operated for a period of time.
Therefore, the coolant may need topping up
at a later stage.

Finishing operations
1. Open the bottom valve on the sea water inlet.
2. Start the engine and check that no leakage
occurs.
3. Check the coolant level and top up the cool-
ant via the expansion tank if necessary.

Cleanliness requirements

IMPORTANT!

The whole fuel system is very sensitive to dirt


and even very small particles. Foreign particles
in the system can cause serious malfunctions. It
is therefore very important that everything is as
clean as possible when work is carried out on the
fuel system. Before repair work, the engine must
be washed. If possible, a hot water wash should
be used.
It is strictly forbidden to carry out any machining
work or work with compressed air near an open
fuel system.
Be extra careful and always use clean, lint-free
and dust-free clothes and disposable gloves
when working on the fuel system. Scania recom-
mends using Tegera 848 gloves.
Clean tools before they are used and do not use
any worn or chrome-plated tools. Material and
flakes of chrome may come off.
Clean connections and the surrounding area be-
fore removal. When cleaning, cloths or paper
which shed fibres must not be used. Use clean
and lint free cloths, part number 588 879.
Plug or cover the connections during removal.
Also clean the connections before the compo-
nents are fitted. Place removed components on a
thoroughly cleaned, dust-free surface. Scania
recommends using a stainless steel bench top,
part number 2 403 296. Cover the components
with a lint free cloth.
