Installing crankshaft
Fig. 6
Clean oil ducts in crankcase and in crankshaft with
dry compressed air.
Thoroughly clean bearing shells and bearing
journals.
Install bearing shells in crankcase, observing the
numbering.

Check whether the bearing cap bolts have ex-
ceeded the max. permissible length (see ”Engi-
neering, data and setting values”). Bolts that have
been removed may be reused if the max. permissi-
ble length is not exceeded.
Insert bearing cap screws and tighten to specified
torque in stages from the inside out (see ”Engi-
neering, Data, Setting values”).
Tighten finally by angle.
Check to see that crankshaft runs smoothly.
Important:
Faulty bearing caps cannot be replaced
singly.
