2. Installation
2.1 Engine Model
This Installation Manual gives information for the JCB Tier 4/Stage IV EcoMAX Industrial
Power Units and associated Selective Catalytic Reduction aftertreatment ancillaries.
The JCB EcoMAX engines installed in the Industrial Power Unit meet EEC/EPA emissions
regulations at Stage IV / Tier 4 depending on emissions label, and are intended for these
markets.
If the engine is installed in a way that makes the engine's emission control information label
hard to read during normal engine maintenance, you must place a duplicate label on the
equipment, as described in 40 CFR 1068.105. JCB will supply a duplicate label as required.
2.2 Application
The JCB IPU has been designed and validated for installation into OEM machines where
static applications are the primary operational mode at either a constant or variable speed;
care should be taken when fitting the IPU into mobile or semi mobile applications where
external shock loadings and vibrational loads could take the IPU components outside of their
validated boundary. Further advice can be obtained from the JCB dealer or JCB Applications
department but it is the responsibility of the OEM to ensure adequate testing has been
carried out to ensure the IPU product is fit for purpose in any mobile or semi mobile
application.
2.3 Using this Installation Manual
This manual is arranged to give a good understanding of the JCB EcoMAX Industrial Power
Unit and guidance on its safe integration into equipment. The main purpose of the manual is
to help engineers and designers specialising in installing JCB EcoMAX engines into
equipment. It gives advice on good practice together with requirements to ensure expected
operation and engine longevity. Adherence to the advice contained in this manual will help
ensure acceptance of the installation by JCB Power Systems.
Fully read this manual before you install the engine into equipment. You must give particular
attention to all the safety aspects of the installation. It is the engine installer’s responsibility to
ensure that users of equipment are provided with adequate instruction for safe operation of
the equipment – including an Operator’s Manual, warnings, and labelling as required.
References to the ‘left’ side and the ‘right’ side of the engine are when viewed from the
flywheel end of the engine.
All equipment, whether mobile or static, can be hazardous. When the engine is correctly
installed, operated and maintained it can be safe to work with, but when it is not it can
become a danger. The engine installer must design the installation to avoid hazards to the
operator and other persons. These hazards may include component edges, surfaces and
angles, as well as hot surfaces and gases or excessive vibration and sound.
Throughout this manual there are safety messages. Please read and understand these
safety messages before you install the engine into equipment.

department.
