(8) Assembly
(a) Following cleaning and inspection, the engine should be assembled using new parts as
determined by the inspection.
(b) Use of the proper equipment and tools makes the job progress faster and produces better
results. Likewise, a suitable working space with proper lighting must be provided.
(c) Keep the working space, equipment, tools and engine assembles and parts clean at all times.
i
The area where assembly operations take place should, if possible, be located away from the disassembly and
cleaning operation. Also, any machining operations should be removed as far as possible from the assembly
area.
(d) Particular attention should be paid to the storing of parts and sub-assemblies. After removal
and cleaning, and prior to assembly, they should be stored in such a place or manner as to keep them clean. If
there is any doubt as to the cleanliness of such parts, they should be recleaned.
(e) When assembling an engine or any part thereof, refer to the table of torque specifications for
proper bolt, nut and stud torques.
(9) Work Safety
(a) A maintenanceman can be severely injured if caught in the pulley or belts of an engine that is
accidentally started. To avoid such a misfortune, take these precautions before starting to work on an engine:
Tag all electrical switches so that the electrical circuit is disrupted. Accidental contact with the starter button
will not produce an engine start.
(b) Make sure the mechanism provided at the governor for stopping the engine is in the STOP
position. This will mean the governor is in the NO-FUEL position. The possibility of the engine firing by
accident is minimized.
(c) Some Safety Precautions to Observe When Working On The Engine:
1
Consider the hazards of the job and wear protective gear such as safety glasses, safety
shoes, hard hat, etc., to provide adequate protection.
2
When lifting an engine component, make sure the lifting device is fastened securely.
Be sure the item to be lifted does not exceed the capacity of the lifting device.
