Introduction
The 2800 Series engines are from Perkins Engines Company Limited, a world leader in the design and
manufacture of high-performance diesel engines.
Perkins approved assembly and quality standards, together with the latest technology, have been applied to
the manufacture of your engine to give you reliable and economic power.
This Workshop Manual has been designed to provide assistance in the service and the overhaul of Perkins
2800 Series engines. Most of the general information, which is included in the User’s Handbook (Chapters 1
to 6), has not been repeated in this Workshop Manual and the two publications should be used together.
To ensure that you use the relevant information for your specific engine type, refer to "Engine identification"
on page 6.
When reference is made to the "left" or "right" side of the engine, this is as seen from the flywheel end of the
engine.
Special tools have been made available and a list of these is given in Chapter 16, Special tools. Reference to
the relevant special tools is also made at the beginning of each operation.
Data and dimensions are included in Chapter 2, Specifications.
Read the "Safety precautions" on page 2 and remember them. They are given for your protection and must be
applied at all times.
In addition to the general safety precautions, danger to both operator and engine are highlighted by the
following conventions:
Warning! This indicates that there is a possible danger to the person (or the person and engine).
