The present operating instructions include notes and guidelines for proper handling of the engine
plant. It is matched with the equipment condition and the type of fuel sold.
Since the type of fuel used considerably influences the service life of the components, the Caterpil-
lar / MaK after-sales service has to be consulted when it is required to change from destillate fuel
operation to heavy fuel oil operation, in order to ensure an expert retrofit of the engine plant and to
exchange the necessary documentation. When changing over from heavy fuel oil operation to
destillate operation, the Caterpillar / MaK after-sales service should also be consulted for a longer
period of time so that a documentation with extended maintenance intervals can be made available.
With regard to operation and maintenance of the engine including the necessary work to be carried
out, the operating instructions are subdivided into the following chapters:

With the respective information contained in the individual chapters, the technical personnel is able

life optimum operating results can be achieved.
