NOTICE

Keep all parts clean from contaminants.

Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life.


Note: Check the O-ring seals, the gaskets, and the seals for wear or for damage. Replace the components, if necessary.


NOTICE

Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids.

Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Dealer Service Tool Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids on Cat products.

Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.


  1. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces of the cylinder head and the cylinder block and all cylinder head bolt holes.

  1. Inspect the cylinder head and the cylinder block for flatness. Refer to Guideline for Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations, SEBF8162, "Procedure to Measure and Salvage Cylinder Head Assemblies and Related Components".
