9.1 Preparatory Data
Function of lubricating system:
Function of engine lubricating system is to supply lubricating oil to friction surfaces of engine
parts so that dry surface friction will turn to liquid friction between plasmids of lubricating oil. It
is used to reduce wear of component, cool components of higher heat, absorb impact from
bearing and other parts, weaken noise, increase tightness between piston ring and cylinder wall,
clean and take away impurities from surface of component, etc.
Precautions on Operation
When engine oil pump is removed, clean carefully all the components and purge them with high-pressure gas.
During engine oil pump removal and installation, pay attention not to drop anything into the crankcase.
