To fit
1 Ensure that the ‘O’ ring seals are fitted to the elbow. Assemble the elbow and oil filter header and retain with
four bolts.
2 Ensure that the used gasket material has been removed from the mating faces. Fit the assembly to the
crankcase, complete with new gaskets, and retain with four short bolts through the elbow and two long bolts
(A2) through the oil filter header.
3 Fit the four bolts (A1) which retain the oil filter header to the oil cooler
4 Connect the turbocharger oil supply pipe and tighten securely.
5 Clean the filter housing (A3) and clean the contact face of the filter head. Clean the drain plug (A2) and fit it
to the housing.
Note: If a degreasing agent has been used to clean the housing, a special lubricant, CV60896, must be applied
to the threads before the housing is fitted.
6 Fit a new element into the filter housing, ensure that it engages fully with the guide in the base of the housing.
Fit a new ‘O’ ring seal around the top of the housing.
Caution: It is important that only genuine Perkins parts are used. The use of incorrect parts could damage the
engine.
7 Fit the housing (A3) onto the filter head and tighten by use of a socket and torque wrench on the hexagon
(A1). Tighten the housing to a torque of 90 Nm (66 lbf ft). Do NOT overtighten. Ensure that the drain plug is
tightened securely.
8 Check the amount of engine oil in the sump. If necessary, add more oil of the correct grade and specification.
Refer to the User’s Handbook.
