The Perkins 700 Series Engine Workshop Manual is especially useful during major engine repairs. Internal components should be cleaned, measured and inspected carefully before they are reused. Any part that exceeds the specified wear limits should be repaired or replaced.

Cylinder-head work may include inspecting the head face, valves, valve seats, guides, springs and rocker components. Correct valve seating and clearance adjustment are important for maintaining compression, dependable starting and efficient engine performance.

The piston and crankshaft sections provide guidance for dismantling and checking the lower engine assembly. Pistons, rings, connecting rods, bearings and crankshaft journals must be examined for wear, scoring or damage before reassembly.

Correct measurements are essential during an engine rebuild. Bearing clearances, crankshaft end float, piston-ring gaps and cylinder wear should all be checked against the specifications provided in the manual.

Engine timing must be set accurately. Incorrect valve or fuel-injection timing can cause poor starting, reduced power, excessive smoke, overheating or possible internal engine damage. The Perkins 700 Series Engine Workshop Manual provides the procedures required to check and adjust the timing correctly.

The lubrication system supplies clean oil to the crankshaft, bearings, camshaft, pistons and valve gear. Oil-pump wear, blocked oilways or incorrect assembly can result in low oil pressure and serious engine damage.

Cooling-system information may include water-pump repairs, thermostat testing, hose inspection and drive-belt adjustment. A properly maintained cooling system is essential for preventing overheating and cylinder-head damage.

Fuel-system maintenance is important for reliable starting and efficient engine operation. The manual may provide guidance for servicing fuel filters, lift pumps, injectors, fuel pipes and injection equipment.
