Cummins NT Diesel Engines Maintenance Manual

Aug. 09, 2017

There is no doubt that maintenance is the key to lower operating costs. No matter it is Cummins engine or other brand engines. A diesel engine requires regularly scheduled maintenance to keep it running efficiently.


Maintenance Schedule

Preventive maintenance is the easiest and least expensive type of maintenance. it permits the Maintenance Department to do the work at a convenient time.

 

Note: A good maintenance schedule depends on engine application.

Actual operating environment of the engine governs the maintenance schedule. The suggested check sheet on the following page indicates some checks have to be performed more often under heavy dust or other special conditions.


Using the Suggested Schedule Check Sheet

The maintenance schedule check sheet is designed as a guide until adequate experience is obtained to establish a schedule to meet a specific operation.

A detailed list of component checks is provided through several check periods; also a suggested schedule basis is given for hours of operation, or calendar of time.

A maintenance schedule should be established using the check sheet as a guide; the result will be a maintenance program to fit a specific operation.

The check sheet shown can be reproduced by any printer. The person making each check can then indicate directly on the sheet that operation has been completed. When a complete column (Under A, B, C, etc.) of checks is indicated, the engine will be ready for additional service until the next check is due.
