that can easily catch fire unles specific, adequate and clearly indicated precautions have been taken and have been
certifiedforthemachine.
•Toprevent firehazards,always keepthe machineatleast onemeterfrom buildingsor fromothermachinery.
•Children and animals must be kept at a due distance from operating machines in order to prevent hazards deriving
from their operation.
•Fuel is inflammable. The tank must only be filled when the engine is off. Thoroughly dry any spilt fuel and move the
fuel container away along with any rags soaked in fuel or oil. Make sure that no soundproofing panels made of
porous material are soaked in fuel or oil. Make sure that the ground or floor on which the machine is standing has
not soaked up any fuel or oil.
•Fully tighten the tank plug each time after refuelling. Do not fill the tank right to the top but leave an adequate space
for the fuel to expand.
•Fuel vapour is highly toxic. Only refuel outdoors or in a well ventilated place.
•Do not smoke or use naked flames when refuelling.
•The engine must be started in compliance with the specific instructions in the operation manual of the engine and/or
machine itself. Do not use auxiliary starting aids that were not installed on the original machine (e.g. Startpilot’).
•Before starting, remove any tools that were used to service the engine and/or machine. Make sure that all guards
have been refitted.
•During operation, the surface of the engine can become dangerously hot. Avoid touching the exhaust system in
particular.
•Before proceeding with any operation on the engine, stop it and allow it to cool. Never carry out any operation whilst
the engine is running.
•The coolant fluid circuit is under pressure. Never carry out any inspections until the engine has cooled and even in
this case, only open the radiator plug or expansion chamber with the utmost caution, wearing protective garments
and goggles. If there is an electric fan, do not approach the engine whilst it is still hot as the fan could also start
operating when the engine is at a standstill. Only clean the coolant system when the engine is at a standstill.
•When cleaning the oil-cooled air filter, make sure that the old oil is disposed of in the correct way in order to
safeguard the environment. The spongy filtering material in oil-cooled air filters must not be soaked in oil. The
reservoir of the separator pre-filter must not be filled with oil.
•The oil must be drained whilst the engine is hot (oil T ~ 80°C). Particular care is required to prevent burns. Do not
allow the oil to come into contact with the skin.
•Make sure that the drained oil, the oil filter and the oil it contains are disposed of in the correct way in order to
safeguard the environment.
•Pay attention to the temperature of the oil filter when the filter itself is replaced.
•Only check, top up and change the coolant fluid when the engine is off and cold. Take care to prevent fluids
containing nitrites from being mixed with others that do not contain these substances since "Nitrosamine",
dangerous for the health, can form. The coolant fluid is polluting and must therefore be disposed of in the correct
way to safeguard the environment.
•During operations that involve access to moving parts of the engine and/or removal of rotating guards, disconnect
and insulate the positive wire of the battery to prevent accidental short-circuits and to stop the starter motor from
being energized.
•Only check belt tension when the engine is off.
•Only use the eyebolts installed by Ruggerini to move the engine. These lifting points are not suitable for the entire
machine; in this case, the eyebolts installed by the manufacturer should be used.

MAINTENANCE - RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE - REFILLING
Failure to carry out the operations described in the table may lead to technical damage to the machine
and/or system
To avoid explosions or fire outbreaks, do not smoke or use naked flames during the operations.
Fuel vapours are highly toxic. Only carry out the operations outdoors or in a well ventilated place.
Keep your face well away from the plug to prevent harmful vapours from being inhaled. Dispose of fuel in the
correct way and do not litter as it is highly polluting.
FUEL
When refuelling, it is advisable to use a funnel to prevent fuel from spilling out. The fuel should also be filtered to prevent dust
or dirt from entering the tank.
Use the same type of diesel fuel as used in cars. Use of other types of fuel could damage the engine. The cetane rating of
the fuel must be higher than 45 to prevent difficult starting. Do not use dirty diesel fuel or mixtures of diesel fuel and water
since this would cause serious engine faults.
The capacity of the standard tank is: lt. 5.0
The maintenance operations listed above refer to an engine operating in normal conditions (temperature, degree of humidity,
dust in the working environment). They may vary significantly according to the type of use.

MAINTENANCE - RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE - REFILLING
The engine could be damaged if allowed to operate with insufficient oil. It is also dangerous to add too much oil as
its combustion could sharply increase the rotation speed.
Use a suitable oil in order to protect the engine.
The lubrication oil influences the performances and life of the engine in an incredible way.
The risk of piston seizure, jammed piston rings and rapid wear of the cylinder liner, the bearings and all moving
parts increases if oil whose characteristics differ from the recommended type is used, or if the oil is not regularly
changed. All this notably reduces engine life.
Oil viscosity must suit the ambient temperature in which the engine operates.
Old oil can cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with the skin and for long periods of time. If contact with the
oil is inevitable, you are advised to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as soon as possible.
Appropriate protective gloves etc should be wore during this operation.
Old oil is highly polluting and must be disposed of in the correct way. Do not litter.

DISASSEMBLY OF THE ENGINE
During repair operations, when using compressed air,
wear eye protection.
Flywheel extraction
Remove the fuel tank, the air conveyor and flywheel nut.
Use extractor cod. 00365R0020, as shown in figure 3.
During the demounting phases, pay particular attention to
prevent the flywheel from dropping as this could seriously
injure the operator.
Wear protective goggles when removing the flywheel ring.
IMPORTANT: Do not tap the end of the extractor when
removing the flywheel.
Removing the injector
Slacken off the fuel delivery pipe, remove the fixing bracket and take
out the tube.
Remove the injector by levering it out with a screwdriver, as
indicated in fig. 1.
Removing the injection pump
Mark the position of the injection pump in relation to the engine
casing (if this has not already been done).
Remove the injection tube and take out the fuel pipes.
The pump can only be removed when the stop lever has been
turned to the stop position. To do this, the pump must be pressed
towards the housing as shown in fig. 2.
Removing the cover on the timing system side
Slacken off the screws around the perimeter of the cover on the
timing system side. Split the cover from the engine casing by
levering with a screwdriver in the points indicated in fig. 4.
Warning: to prevent damage to the main bearings, it is
advisable to demount the cover from the timing system
side with the engine cold.
DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
Besides disassembly and reassembly operations this chapter also
includes checking and setting specifications, dimensions, repair
and operating instructions. Always use original RUGGERINI spare
parts for repair operations.

Demounting and remounting the main bearings
Use tool code 00365R0900 and plug code 00366R0220 (fig. 6) to
demount the main bearings from the engine casing and cover on
the timing system side.
To fit the main bearing back into the engine casing, use tool code
00365R0900 with plug code 00366R0220 and sleeve code
00366R0230 side A (fig. 7).
To mount the main bearing on the cover on the timing system side,
use tool code 00365R0900 with plug code 00366R0220 and sleeve
code 00366R0230 side B (fig. 7).
During the assembly operations, make sure that the bearing holes
match the oil ducts by making reference marks with a felt-tip pen.
Make sure that the reference mark on the bearing edge points
towards:
- the casing interior
- the outer part of the timing system cover.
WARNING
Proceed with the following inspections after assembly:
Cover on timing system side
The main bearing must project 1.7 to 2 mm in relation to
the bearing surface of the bull ring (inner side of cover).
Engine casing
The main bearing must be flush with the bearing surface
of the shimming ring (inner side of casing).

CHECKS AND OVERHAUL
Head
Parts indicated in fig. 8.
1. Nut - 2.Nut with ball - 3. Rocker arm - 4. Cotters - 5. Rocker arm
stud - 6. Upper cap - 7. Spring - 8. Air-relief valve - 9. Lower cap - 10.

- 14. Exhaust valve - 15. Intake valve - 16. Rocker arm rod - 17.
Camshaft - 18. Tappets.
The head is made of aluminium with valve guides and housings in
faced cast iron. Remove any carbon deposits from the head and
check the cylinder bearing surface. Level it off to a depth of no more
than 0.3 mm if deformed.
The head must not be cracked or deformed. If such faults are
discovered, replace the part after consulting the spare parts
catalogue.
Do not demount the head when hot to avoid deformations.
Valves - Guides - Housings
Clean the valves with a metal brush and replace them if the tops are
deformed, cracked or worn (fig. 9).
(*) with guide mounted. measurements in mm
Check the dimensions of the valve stem (fig. 10) and the play
between the guide and valve. Ream the guide to the dimensions
indicated in the table. Change the guide and valve if the play
exceeds 0.1 mm.
The valve housings will always need to be ground when new
guides are mounted. Valve guides oversized on the outside by 0.10
mm are available.
After the engine has been used for a lengthy period of time, valve
knocking in their housings at high temperatures will harden the
housing tracks and make manual milling difficult to carry out.
When this happens, remove the hardened surface layer with a
grinder at 45° (Fig. 11).
The valve retention track will widen when the valve housing is
machined. Final adaptation of the valve in the housing must be
carried out by smearing fine grain lapping compound in the housing
and turning the valve with a light pressure and with an alternate
movement until the surfaces bed perfectly (fig. 12).
Comply with the valve embedding values as indicated in the table
(G, fig. 9).
Warning: when the valve embedding values are lower
than those prescribed, the valves could interfere with the
piston.

CHECKS AND OVERHAUL
Free length
Grinding-in must always be carried out when new valves or
housings are mounted. Valve housings oversized on the outside by
0.5 mm are available.
Thoroughly wash the valve and housing with petroleum or gasoline
to eliminate lapping paste residues or swarf.
Proceed in the following way to make sure that the valve and seat
are tight:
1. Mount the valve on the head with cap string and cotters (see fig.
8)
2. Overturn the head and pour a few drops of diesel fuel or oil on
to the edge of the valve top
3. Blow compressed air into the head duct. Plug the edges of the
duct itself to prevent air escaping.
If there are air leaks in the form of bubbles between the housing
and valve, demount the valve and grind-in again.
Valve springs
Check the length of the spring as indicated in fig. 13 to identify any
yielding.
Replace the springs if the values are different.
Rocker arms
Make sure that there are no evident signs of wear on the contacting
surfaces. Replace the parts if necessary.
Cylinder
In special cast iron with integral liner. Use a bore gauge to check
the two internal diameters (C-D) perpendicular to each other and at
different heights (fig. 14). Maximum tolerated taper error (A-B) and
ovality error (C-D): 0.06 mm.
Cylinder diameter:
If the diameter of the cylinder does not exceed said values or if there
are slight surface scores on the cylinder, it will be sufficient to
change the piston rings.
Do not manually hone the cylinder bore surfaces with
emery cloth or other means.
The cross-hatch pattern should be at an angle of 90°÷120°; lines
should be uniform and clear in both directions (fig. 15).
Average roughness must range between 0.5 mm 1 µm.
The cylinder surface which comes into contact with piston rings
should be machined with the plateau method.
Replace the cylinder and piston if there is a ridge in zone "X" fig. 15
of the cylinder and if tapering and ovality exceed the previously given
values.
