If the engine will not be started for several weeks, the<br />
lubricating oil will drain from the cylinder walls <strong>and</strong><br />
from the piston rings. Rust can form on the cylinder<br />
liner surface. Rust on the cylinder liner surface will<br />
cause increased engine wear <strong>and</strong> a reduction in<br />
engine service life.<br />
To help prevent excessive engine wear, use the<br />
following guidelines:<br />
• Complete all of the lubrication recommendations<br />
that are listed in this <strong>Operation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Maintenance</strong><br />
<strong>Manual</strong>, “<strong>Maintenance</strong> Interval Schedule”<br />
(<strong>Maintenance</strong> Section).<br />
• If freezing temperatures are expected, check the<br />
cooling system for adequate protection against<br />
freezing. See this <strong>Operation</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Maintenance</strong><br />
<strong>Manual</strong>, “Refill Capacities <strong>and</strong> Recommendations”<br />
(<strong>Maintenance</strong> Section).<br />

NOTICE<br />
Never bend the eyebolts <strong>and</strong> the brackets. Only load<br />
the eyebolts <strong>and</strong> the brackets under tension. Remember<br />
that the capacity of an eyebolt is less as the angle<br />
between the supporting members <strong>and</strong> the object becomes<br />
less than 90 degrees.<br />
When it is necessary to remove a component at an<br />
angle, only use a link bracket that is properly rated for<br />
the weight.<br />
If an engine is out of operation <strong>and</strong> if use of the engine<br />
is not planned, special precautions should be made.<br />
If the engine will be stored for more than one month,<br />
a complete protection procedure is recommended.<br />
For more detailed information on engine storage, see<br />
Special Instruction, SEHS9031, “Storage Procedure<br />
For Caterpillar Products”.<br />
Your Caterpillar dealer can assist in preparing the<br />
engine for extended storage periods.<br />
Use a hoist to remove heavy components. Use<br />
an adjustable lifting beam to lift the engine. All<br />
supporting members (chains <strong>and</strong> cables) should be<br />
parallel to each other. The chains <strong>and</strong> cables should<br />
be perpendicular to the top of the object that is being<br />
lifted.<br />
Some removals require lifting the fixtures in order to<br />
obtain proper balance <strong>and</strong> safety.<br />

Lifting eyes are designed <strong>and</strong> installed for the specific<br />
engine arrangement. Alterations to the lifting eyes<br />
<strong>and</strong>/or the engine make the lifting eyes <strong>and</strong> the lifting<br />
fixtures obsolete. If alterations are made, ensure<br />
that proper lifting devices are provided. Consult your<br />
Caterpillar dealer for information regarding fixtures<br />
for proper engine lifting.
