SECTION II
ENGINE SPECIFICATION
The crankshaft gear turns idler gear which then turns camshaft gear and gear for
the engine oil pump.
The fuel injection pump is mounted on cylinder block. The fuel injection pump
conforms to requirements for latest emissions. If any adjustments to the fuel
injection pump timing and high idle are required you must refer to your Baudouin
authorized service centre. Fuel injection pumps have electronic governors that
control the engine speed
The engine oil pump sends lubricating oil to the main oil gallery through a pressure
relief valve and an engine oil filter. The rocker arms receive pressurized oil through
an externally located oil line that runs from the main oil gallery to the cylinder head.
Coolant from the bottom of the radiator passes through the belt driven centrifugal
water pump. The coolant is cooled by the radiator and the temperature is regulated
by thermostat valve.
Engine efficiency, emission controls, and engine operation life is directly dependent
on correct operation and maintenance as recommended by the company.
Engine performance and efficiency also depend on the use of recommended
lubrication oils, and coolants. Read the manual carefully to get familiarized with the
engine and its operation and maintenance procedure.

3.3.7 Priming the fuel system
Operate the hand priming pump (lift pump) provided on the Fuel Injection Pump
(FIP) for several times till the low pressure system get pressurized (figure 3.13).
Remove trapped air from the system stage by stage. The fuel filters, FIP and the
high pressure line is filled with fuel when assembled and tested in the factory. In
normal case, no air bleeding is required after the FIP.
Since the fuel system is a critical part of the diesel engine, manufacturing and
installation quality of fuel tank and fuel line connected to it and quality of the fuel
used will influence the performance and reliability of the diesel engine. Fuel tank
provided by the user must be clean and free of rust and corrosion, and it must be
made of materials which do not react with diesel fuel to avoid production of foreign
matters. The fuel tank must be provided with a drain device to drain water and
foreign matters in the fuel. It is recommended that a valve be added to the outlet
pipe of the fuel tank to facilitate maintenance of the piping.
Air inlet of the diesel engine should be arranged outside the unit in order to ensure
fresh air supply to the diesel engine. Air inlet pipe of diesel engine should have
the fewest elbows, and large arc transition should be used. The air filter at the air
inlet should be provided with a protective cover to prevent water and pollutant from
entering the diesel engine.
12
exceed 6kPa in order to avoid impacts on performance of the diesel engine. Since
surface of the exhaust pipe will become hot during operation of the diesel engine,
the exhaust pipe must be installed away from flammable objects, and to prevent
workers from being burnt, the external exhaust pipe must be provided with thermal
insulating device on the surface
13
3. PRESSURE SENSOR: A resistive type pressure sensor cum switch is used in
the lube oil system which is mounted on the main oil gallery. The controller will
monitor and display engine oil pressure according to the change in resistance
of the sensor. The measuring range of the sensor is 0-10 Kg/Cm2
.
5. SPEED SENSOR: A magnetic pickup is essentially a coil wound around a
permanently magnetized probe. When discrete ferromagnetic objects-such
as gear teeth, turbine rotor blades, slotted discs, or shafts with keyways-
are passed through the probe’s magnetic field, the fluxdensity is modulated.
ThisinducesAC voltages in the coil. One complete cycle of voltage is generated
for each object passed
14
6. ACTUATOR: The actuator is installed in the engine, its installation location
and method depend on specific circumstance, we recommend installing the
actuator produced by For trust with the pump in an integration installation way,
but under some special circumstances or some specific requirements, you can
also use the way of external installation.
The output shaft of the actuator and the injection pump rack of the engine
joint directly, with output in a straight line and the output displacement of 10-
[Link] installation, the initial position shall guarantee that the pump can
have fuel cut reliably and the pump rack stroke and the actuator stroke shall
cooperate well. Generally, it is required to ensure the stroke from fuel cut to
fuel full to be about 75% of the actuator’s working stroke.
There are several connecting ways between output connecting rod of the
actuator and the pump rack, which must ensure there is no jam or slippage
after installation. The installation shall realize the purpose of no clearance
transmission between the output connecting rod and pump rack
15
8. CONTROLLER: A controller is as a safety device that is use d for the complete
genset control and protection. For engine safety, the controller will monitor
the speed; lube oil pressure and coolant temperature. Based on the engine
technical requirement, an alarm and or safety stop value is set in the controller.
In case the measured value exceeds the set value, the controller will generate
an alarm or stop signal and protect the engine before it reaches the unsafe
condition.

Press the start button; the signal will pass to starter motor relay and crank the
engine If the engine cannot be started within 5~10s, ”Controller automatically gives
start command -3 times repeatedly with the time interval which programmed.” If
the engine cannot be started for 3 successive times, stop starting, and restart it
after the cause has been found and eliminated. Once the engine is started, release
the button, while taking notice of instrument readings. The oil pressure should be
immediately displayed on the oil pressure gauge. Please note that the cold engine
should not run at high speed, it should run at idle speed for some time but not too
long.
After starting the engine, pay attention to the operation parameters such as lube
oil pressure and engine speed. The parameters should be stable and achieved
the minimum required value as mentioned in the parameter table. Also check the
engine for any leakages or abnormal sound, vibration, smoke etc. then increase
the speed from idle to rated speed. Apply the load gradually.
Stopping: Prior to shutdown, unload the engine first, and then slow down the
engine to run it at 600~1,000r/min for several minutes, and operates the shutdown
lever to stop the engine. Switch off the power supply to instruments after shutdown.
If emergency shutdown is needed, in addition to rapidly placing the fuel cut-off lever
to the shutdown position, it can also be achieved by rapidly cutting off the fuel pipe
to the injection pump or blocking the air filter inlet.
Auto mode:
Starting: The auto mode starting is après-defined activity used in AMF application.
For automatic/ Self-switching Gen-set, the gen-set will stimulate mains power
failure after the gen-set is switch to auto mode.
Do not press the start button when the engine is running. It will
damage flywheel ring gear and starter motor pinion gear.

3.3.13 Running in period & Operation precautions
The engine components are made of materials with different thermal expansion
and stability. It should gradually bring to the thermal stability during the initial stage
of operation. First 60 hours of operation is considered as running in period. During
this period, engine needs to be run with care at normal load (80to85%maximum).
Aggressive operation and overloading during running in will disturb thermal stability
and leads to shortened engine life.
1. After starting, run the engine at rated speed without load for 5 minute then
increase some load step by step and sudden loading or unloading should be
avoided.
2. The engine should not operate at idle speed for a long time to avoid oily smoke
and other faults.
3. During normal operation, the diesel engine is allowed to run continuously at
80% of rated power. Overload of 10% to meet peak power demands should
not be no more than 1 hr in every 12 hr.
4. After unloading, the diesel engine should be stopped only after running at idle
speed for (1~2) min or till the coolant temperature is below 70 degC.
5. During operation, pay attention to the following parameters and inspect the
following parts periodically or timely.
Pressure in main oil passage: 350~500 kPa.
Coolant outlet temperature: 80+5°C, but not exceeding 98°C. Exhaust
temperature after turbine: <550°C.
Check the exhaust color to identify the working performance of injector and
operating load of the diesel engine. If the exhaust gas color greatly deviates
from the specified, shut down the engine for inspection.
Pay attention to inspection on water, air or oil/fuel leakage of the diesel engine.
If any of the above is found, shut down the engine for remedy.
6. The operator is required to have knowledge about the following features of the
diesel engine:
a) The engine will reach the optimal fuel economy when its medium load range
is 60% ~ 90% of the rated load.
b) Provide the diesel engine with inspection and maintenance at the required
time intervals for routine inspection and technical maintenance.
Shutdown: During shutdown in cold weather, first remove the load, then run the
engine at no load for (1~2) min, and shut it down when the temperature of oil and
water has decreased.
19
3.4 Regular operation
Practice the daily inspection and maintenance for trouble free, safe and reliable
engine performance (refer below table 3.1)
AFTER STARTING
Keep the engine on rated speed for 2 -3 minutes and let it warm up.
• Ensure no leakage in the fluid system – Coolant, oil etc.
• Observe the oil pressure, oil temperature, coolant temperature are normal.
• Observe the engine operation and ensure no abnormal noise, vibration, etc.
• Observe the exhaust smoke is normal.
• Ensure no variation in engine speed (hunting etc.)
Table 3.1

Before most of the failure, engine will develop early warning in the form
of abnormal sound, changes in parameter and performance or engine
appearance. Close monitoring of the engine will help to detect the fail-
ure in the preliminary stage.
Few signs, to look out for are as below:
‒ Leakage of oil, fuel, coolant, compressed air or exhaust gas
‒ Color change in exhaust gas
‒ Rise/drop of pressure and temperature of lubricating oil
‒ Excessive vibration
‒ Sudden unusual noise
‒ misfiring of engine
‒ Rise in oil/fuel consumption
‒ Power loss
1. Fuel: Select and use the diesel of different brands according to the outdoor
temperature in winter.
2. Oil: Select the oil with different viscosities according to different seasons.
3. Coolant: Select and use different brands of anti-freeze additive and add additive
in different quantity into the cooling system according to the outdoor temperature.
4. Starting: In winter, use the auxiliary starter if required. It is allowed to run the
engine at higher speed and apply load after attaining the normal oil pressure and
water temperature.
Shutdown: When stopping the engine in cold weather, first remove the load,
then keep the engine at idle speed for 3~4 minutes, stop the engine only after all
temperatures drop down. Do not drain off coolant with anti-freeze additive after the
engine is stopped. If the coolant is not added with the anti-freeze additive, then it is
necessary to open water drain valve and completely drain off all coolant. This will
prevent damages caused to the engine due to freezing.

SECTION IV
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Baudouin engines are designed for high reliability and long life. The engines are
built to withstand operational environment in various altitude and climatic conditions.
Preventive maintenance is the cost effective and economical way to reduce the
operational cost of a diesel engine. If the preventive maintenance is carried out
as per schedule by a trained technician, downtime and costly breakdowns can be
eliminated.
The maintenance schedule is defined by the actual operating environment of
the engine. The maintenance schedule given in table 4.1 is for ideal operating
condition. In case of heavy dust or adverse operating environment, the frequency
of the maintenance must be increased.
24
It is allowed to use only genuine spare parts on the engine which
is procured from a reliable outlet of the engine manufacturer. If
the customer has installed non-genuine parts or sub-assemblies,
theCustomer should take the responsibility and bear all the cost
CAUTION
of damage to engine which may subsequently damage and cause
injury to persons. In such cases the engine is out of legal scope of
product warranty.
• Only use neutral soap to wash the part of body where it is contaminated by
oil or fuel (trying to remove the deposits are removal of the by using fine sand
or solvent is not allowed).
Hot oil and hot components can cause personal injury. Do not allow
hot oil or hot components to contact the skin.
25
1. In case of standby application of the Diesel Generating set, it
is recommended to run the engine on rated speed for 10-15
minutes every day.
2. Kindly ensure to contact our authorized service center to avail
the free services.

Authorized service center only.
5. Use 15W40 CI4+ Grade lubricating oil
26
4.7 Periodic Maintenance instructions
4.7.1 Check air filter
Cleaned air is playing a major role for the optimum engine performance and life of
internal components. Periodically check, clean and replace the air filter to ensure
optimum performance and maximum life.
It is not allowed to use the engine without air filter, otherwise the
dust and impurities will cause aggressive wear of the internal parts.
Figure 4.1
28
After the engine oil is drained off completely, carefully inspect the
magnetic part of the drain plug for accumulation of metal particles.
Accumulation of various metal particles is the indication of abnormal
wear of internal components. If metal particle accumulation is
noticed, carry out necessary inspection before proceeding to the
next step.
Remove the oil filter with the help of special filter wrench. Let the oil drain out
completely from the filter housing. Take new oil filter and confirm the seal ring is
positioned on the filter mating face. Fill up sufficient quantity of fresh oil in the filter
and lubricate the sealing ring face. Position the filter and tight it on the housing by
hand. Use the filter wrench and gently tight the filter on its housing with the help of
filter wrench
Recap the drain plug and properly tighten it with the help of suitable spanner. Fill
up the recommended engine oil up to specified level through the filling port. Check
and confirm the sump oil level with the help of dipstick provided on the crank case.
Start the engine and run it for a short period (3-4 minutes).during running check
and ensure no leakage from the filter sealing and sump drain plug. Stop the engine
and check the oil level after 5 to 10 minutes; top up if required.
29
4.7.4 Replacement of fuel filter
Use the filter wrench to loosen and retighten the filter. Use a suitable tray under the
filter location to collect diesel spillage during removing the filter. Loosen and remove
the filter. Refer figure 4.5 Let the fuel drain completely from the filter housing. Wipe
the sealing surface with a clean cloth, then position new diesel filter on housing.
Firmly tight the filter on its body with the help of filter wrench

Method:
Remove the cylinder head cover. Turn the crankshaft until the mark of the top dead
center of the first cylinder on the crankshaft pulley aligns with the pointer of the
timing indicator (see fig 4.11).
When the piston of the first cylinder is at its top dead center on the compression
stroke, both intake and exhaust valves of the first cylinder will be in the closed
position. In this position, check the valve clearances as per the sequence mentioned
in below table, step-1. After completing the first step rotate the crank shaft for 360°
and follow step -2 from the 6th cylinder.
31
If the valve clearance is found incorrect, follow the adjusting sequence as mentioned
here. Loosen the lock nut of the clearance adjusting screw with the help of spanner
and hold it. Loosen the adjusting screw with the help of a screw driver and insert
the correct feeler gauge. Screw in or out the adjusting screw until the feeler gauge
inserted between the rocker arm and the top surface of the valve stem feels neither
too loose nor too tight. Then tighten the lock nut and check the clearance again.
Readjust if necessary till it is properly set. Repeat the operation if required of other

LUBRICANT AND COOLANT SPECIFICATIONS
5.1 Lubricant
5.1.1 The functioning of lubricating oil in a diesel engine
The lubricating oil used in the engine must be multifunctional. It must perform the
primary functions of:
1. Lubrication: Basic function is to reduce friction and minimize the wear and tear.
The engine oil forms a film between the moving parts (such as bearings, pistons,
piston rings, cylinder liners and the valve train) and ensures sufficient lubrication
between the moving parts.
2. Cooling: Acts as a media for high heat transfer (from combustion chamber) and
protecting the moving parts from overheating.
3. Detergency: Cleaning pistons and preventing sludge build-up on internal surfaces
4. Prevention from corrosion: Corrosion prevention by neutralizing the acid and
protecting the components from atmospheric humidity by creating a layer.
5. Sealing: By filling in the uneven surfaces in the cylinder wall, valve stems and
Turbocharger oil seals.
5.1.2 Engine oil consist of
Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. Base oil is the most basic raw materials
of engine oil and additives are added for enhancing the oil properties which is
suited for diesel engine applications. Basic additives are viscosity modifiers, anti-
wear additives, detergents, dispersant and antioxidant etc.
5.1.3 Why oil should be drained
Engine lubricating oil must be drained when it can no longer perform its functions in
an engine. Oil doesn’t wear out, but it becomes contaminated/ degraded to the point
that it can no longer satisfactorily protect the engine. The engine oil degradation is
a normal result of engine operation, where oil properties changed mainly because
of reaction to the combustion by products.
Following are the organizations designing and approving oil classification and
specification standards.
API (American Petroleum Institute)
ACEA (Association des Constructers Europeans automobiles - European) ASTM
(American Society for Testing Materials)
JASO (Japanese Automobile Standards Organization)
Hence, we strongly recommend the use of SAE 15W40 lube oil with API CI4+
classification For all engines to get the various advantages and optimum
performance from the engine.
This oil should have a minimum TBN (Total Base Number) of 10.5 to counteract the
higher Sulphur content of high speed diesel available in India.
47
Beware of spurious oils in the market. Bad oil quality is detrimental
to engine performance. Hence oil should always be procured from
CAUTION
the original manufacturer or the authorized distributor.
Lubricating oil to be used in the engine must meet all qualities as per manufacturer’s
specifications. We recommend audit checks of fresh engine oil to ensure the
quality of oil. Facility to check suitability of oil for using it in the engine is available
with the service centers. If in doubt about the quality of lube oil, contact lube oil
manufacturing company and get oil analyzed in their laboratories.
Do not intermix different brands of oil as two different brands of oils may not be
compatible with each other. It is therefore recommended that the brand which is
used for initial fill/oil change should only be used for top-up. Different brand of oil
may be used after draining all the existing oil i.e., at the oil drain interval and after
flushing the lube oil system with new brand of oil.
The responsibility of meeting oil quality lies with the oil manufacturer
and Baudouin will not be responsible for problems occurring on
CAUTION
engines due to poor quality of oil.
5.4 Coolant
An engine coolant is a heat transfer fluid which flows through or around an engine
to prevent it’s overheating, transferring the heat produced by the engine to radiator
that dissipates it. An operating engine typically converts only one third of the energy
derived through the combustion of fuel into work. The other two thirds is converted
into heat, of which one third goes out with the exhaust and remaining one third
is removed by engine coolant. The coolant absorbs this heat, transport it to the
radiator/heat exchanger and dissipate it into the environment/ atmosphere.
Research has shown that 40% of all engine problems in high speed diesel engines
are related, directly or indirectly, to improper cooling system maintenance.
48
We recommend use of ES Complete EG Premix 50/50.
ES Complete EG Antifreeze/Coolants are Extended Life formulations that contain
Ethylene Glycol (EG) base fluids and are designed specifically for Extended Service
use in heavy duty diesel engines. ES Complete is specifically designed for use with
ES Slow Release coolant filters or liquid ES Extender to provide simplified coolant
maintenance while extending coolant service intervals to 150,000 miles (260,000
km) or 4000 hours of operation. ES Complete can also be used in standard service
maintenance intervals with the use of Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCA) and
standard coolant filters.
Composition ES Complete EG Concentrate mixes readily with clean tap water
or dematerialized water, while ES Complete EG Premix is formulated with
dematerialized water and is ready to use. Both EG antifreeze products are low
silicate, contain a full charge of heavy duty chemical inhibitors and are compatible
with SCA chemical filters. ES Complete EG Antifreezes are formulated with Borate/
Nitrite chemistry recommended for use in heavy duty diesel engines.
