fuel injection pump as follows:

(a) Fasten the throttle cable to the throttle

cable bracket with a clamp being sure to
align the grooves in the cable and clamp.

(b) Secure the throttle cable clevis to the fuel

injection pump throttle and stop lever with
cotter and clevis pins. Adjust the clevis so
that the lever touches the stop screw.

16. Connect the fuel lines to the fuel pre-filter and

fuel filter assemblies.

17. Connect engine wire harness to the engine

and transmission components, Fig. 8A.33:

• Starter
• Starter Ground Cable
• Starter Relay
• Neutral Start Switch (on transmission)
• Transmission Temperature Switch
• Low Oil Pressure Sender
• Water Temperature Sender
• Fuel Run Solenoid
• Alternator
• Thermo Start Plug

18. Secure the rear support between the side

frame members with ten capscrews, lock
washers, and hex nuts. Torque to 225 to 275
lb-ft (305 to 373 Nm).

19. Connect the wiring to the backup alarm.

20. Attach the exhaust system to the engine.

21. Install the air cleaner system on the rear

support and connect the hoses.

22. Install the radiator overflow bottle.

23. Install the radiator, hoses, and shroud.

24. Connect the radiator hoses to the engine.

25. Fill the radiator as follows:

(a) Be sure the radiator petcock is closed and

the engine cylinder block drain plug is
installed.

(b) Fill the radiator completely with 50/50

mixture of ethylene glycol and water.
Capacity is 5.4 gallons (20,4 liters).

(c) Replace radiator cap.

(d) Add coolant to the overflow bottle until it is

about 1/4 to 1/2 full — approximately 1
quart (0,95 liter).

(e) Clean dirt and debris from radiator fins

and core. Remove rear radiator cover for
access to radiator.

26. Install the transmission oil cooler on the rear

support and connect it to the transmission.

27. Fill the transmission as follows:

(a) Install a cleaned drain plug, screen and

gasket, Fig. 7.1, into the transmission
sump housing.

(b) Fill transmission with MIL-L-2104C Oil to

LOW mark on dipstick, Fig. 7.6.

28. Install the radiator cover.

29. Install counterweight on the rear of the frame.

30. Check the fluid levels as follows:

(a) Start the engine and allow it to heat to

operating temperature. Do not operate
engine for more than two minutes.

(b) Shut the engine off, wait for engine to

cool, and check the coolant level. Top it
off as required by adding coolant through
the overflow bottle.

(c) Be sure the engine oil level is between the

full and add marks. If it is below the add
mark, add 10W30 motor oil equal to API,
CD or CE (severe duty diesel engine)
specifications. Engine crankcase capacity
is 9.4 quarts (8,9 liters) for Perkins
Natural with a filter change or 9.9 quarts
(9,3 liters) for Perkins Turbo with a filter
change.

(d) Check the transmission oil level. If it is

below the add mark, add MIL-L-2104C Oil
to bring it to the full mark on the dipstick.
Transmission capacity is 4.3 gallons (16,3
liters).

31. Install the transmission cover, close and lock

both engine access doors.
