Introduction

This Instruction Manual has been compiled to help you get the most from your Volvo Penta industrial engine. It
contains all the information you need in order to operate and maintain your engine safely and correctly. Please
read the Instruction Manual carefully and learn how to operate the engine, controls and other equipment safely.
IMPORTANT! This Instruction Manual describes engines and equipment sold by Volvo Penta. For some ap-
plications there may be variations (appearance and function) of components such as controls and instru-
mentation. If this is the case, see the Instruction Manual for the relevant application.

Care of the environment

We all want to live in a clean and healthy environ-
ment. Where we can breathe clean air, see healthy
trees, have clean water in our lakes and oceans and
enjoy the sunshine without worrying about our health.
Unfortunately this is no longer something we can take
for granted. We must work hard together for the envir-
onment.
As a manufacturer of engines Volvo Penta has a par-
ticular responsibility. This is why concern for the en-
vironment is one of the cornerstones of our product
development. Today great advances have been made
in reducing exhaust emissions, fuel consumption and
engine noise in Volvo Penta's wide range of engines.
We hope that you will take care to maintain these
properties. Always follow the advice in the Instruction
Manual about fuel grades, operation and service and
you will avoid unnecessary damage to the environ-
ment. If you notice changes such as increased fuel
consumption or exhaust smoke, please contact your
Volvo Penta dealer.
Always dispose of environmentally harmful waste
such as engine and transmission oil, coolant, old
paint, degreasing agents, cleaning residue and old
batteries at proper disposal points.
Together we can work to make a valuable contribution
to a clean environment.

Running-in

The engine must be "run in" for its first 10 operat-
ing hours as follows:
Operate the engine normally. Do not operate it at full
load except for short periods. Never run the engine at
a constant engine speed for long periods during the
running-in period.
The engine can be expected to use more engine oil
during the running-in period (100–200 hours) than
would otherwise be normal. Check the oil level more
often than is normally recommended.

Make additional checks on the disengageable clutch
(if installed) for the first few days. It may be neces-
sary to adjust it to compensate for wear to the plates.

Fuel and oil types

Only use the fuel and oils recommended in this In-
struction Manual (see the chapter "Service" under the
heading fuel and lubrication systems). Using other
grades of fuel and oil can cause operating problems,
increased fuel consumption and, in the long term, a
shorter engine service life.
Always change oil, oil filters and fuel filters at the re-
commended intervals.
Maintenance and replacement
parts
Volvo Penta engines are designed for maximum ser-
vice life and reliability. They are built to survive in
challenging environments, but also to cause as little
environmental impact as possible. Regular servicing
and the use of Volvo Penta Genuine parts will main-
tain these properties.
Volvo Penta have a world-wide network of authorised
dealers. They are specialists in Volvo Penta products
and have accessories and the original replacement
parts, test equipment and special tools necessary for
high quality service and repair work.
Always follow the service intervals contained in
this Instruction Manual and remember to quote the
engine / transmission identification number when
ordering service and replacement parts.
