General information 1
Introduction
This Workshop Manual has been written to provide assistance in the service and overhaul of Perkins 1100
Series 4 cylinder engines. It should be used in conjunction with normal workshop practise and information
contained in current service bulletins. Mention of certain accepted practices therefore, has been purposely
omitted in order to avoid repetition. For overhaul procedures the assumption is made that the engine is
removed from the application.
The engine conforms with USA (EPA/CARB) stage 2 and EEC stage 2 emissions legislation for agriculture,
construction and industrial applications.
Most of the general information which is included in the relevant User’s Handbook has not been repeated in
this workshop manual and the two publications should be used together.
Where the information applies only to certain engine types, this is indicated in the text.
The details of some operations will be different according to the type of fuel injection pump which is fitted. The
specific pump type used can be found by reference to the manufacturer’s identification plate on the pump body
but, generally, the type of pump fitted is as shown below:
l Delphi - DP210 Series
l Bosch - VP 30
l Bosch - EPVE.
When reference is made to the "left" or "right" side of the engine, this is as seen from the flywheel end of the
engine.
Special tools have been made available and a list of these is given in Chapter 16, Special tools. Reference to
the relevant special tools is also made at the beginning of each operation.
POWERPART recommended consumable products are listed under "POWERPART recommended
consumable products" on page 9. Reference to the relevant consumable products is also made at the
beginning of each operation.
Data and dimensions are included in Chapter 2, Specifications.
Read and remember the "Safety precautions" on page 5. They are given for your protection and must be used
at all times.
Danger is indicated in the text by two methods:
Warning! This indicates that there is a possible danger to the person.
Caution: This indicates that there is a possible danger to the engine.
Note: Is used where the information is important, but there is not a danger.

Engine identification
The Perkins 1100 Series 4 cylinder engines have been designed for industrial, construction and agricultural
applications. There are a range of four cylinder engines with or without electronics, available in naturally
aspirated, turbocharged and air to air charge cooled models.
In this Workshop Manual, the different models are indicated by their code letters. The first two letters of the
engine number are indicated below:
Continued
RE Naturally aspirated
RF Naturally aspirated, electronic
RG Turbocharged
RH Turbocharged, electronic
RJ Turbocharged, charge cooled
RK Turbocharged, charge cooled, electronic

1
The Perkins 1100 Series 4 cylinder engines have been designed for agricultural, industrial and construction
applications.
The correct identification of the engine is by the full engine number.
The engine number is stamped on a label which is fastened to the left side (A2) of the cylinder block. An
example of an engine number is:
RE.....*U.......*
If you need parts, service or information for your engine, you must give the complete engine number to your
Perkins Dealer/Distributor. If there is a number in the area of the label marked TPL No, then this number must
also be given to your Perkins Dealer/Distributor.
Other identification labels fitted to the engine include:
l A label (A1) with the fuel injection pump part numbers.
l An emissions legislation label (A3), (A6), (A7) and (C1) can be fitted in four different positions on the
engine.
l A “Ether” warning label (A5) is fitted on the intake manifold.
l A “caution please read User’s Handbook label” (A4) is screen printed into the atomiser cover.
If a short engine has been fitted in service, two engine serial numbers and a TPL number are stamped on the
engine serial number label (B3).
The engine serial number plate (B) contains the following information:
l TPL number (1).
l Type (2).
l Serial number (3).
l List number (4).

Safety precautions
These safety precautions are important. You must refer also to the local regulations in the country of use.
Some items only refer to specific applications.
l Only use these engines in the type of application for which they have been designed.
l Do not change the specification of the engine.
l Do not smoke when you put fuel in the tank.
l Clean away fuel which has been spilt. Material which has been contaminated by fuel must be moved to a
safe place.
l Do not put fuel in the tank while the engine runs (unless it is absolutely necessary).
l Do not clean, add lubricating oil, or adjust the engine while it runs (unless you have had the correct training;
even then extreme care must be used to prevent injury).
l Do not make adjustments that you do not understand.
l Ensure that the engine does not run in a location where it can cause a concentration of toxic emissions.
l Other persons must be kept at a safe distance while the engine or auxiliary equipment is in operation.
l Do not permit loose clothing or long hair near moving parts.
l Keep away from moving parts during engine operation.
Warning! Some moving parts cannot be seen clearly while the engine runs.
l Do not operate the engine if a safety guard has been removed.
l Do not remove the filler cap, or any component of the cooling system while the engine is hot and while the
coolant is under pressure because dangerous hot coolant can be discharged.
l Do not allow sparks or fire near the batteries (especially when the batteries are on charge) because the
gases from the electrolyte are highly flammable. The battery fluid is dangerous to the skin and especially
to the eyes.
l Disconnect the battery terminals before a repair is made to the electrical system.
l Only one person must control the engine.
l Ensure that the engine is operated only from the control panel or from the operator’s position.
l If your skin comes into contact with high-pressure fuel, obtain medical assistance immediately.
l Diesel fuel and lubricating oil (especially used lubricating oil) can damage the skin of certain persons.
Protect your hands with gloves or a special solution to protect the skin.
l The combustible material of some components of the engine (for example certain seals) can become
extremely dangerous if it is burned. Never allow this burnt material to come into contact with the skin or with
the eyes, see "Viton seals" on page 8 for safety precautions.
l Do not wear clothing which is contaminated by lubricating oil. Do not put material which is contaminated
with oil into the pockets of clothing.
l Discard used lubricating oil in a safe place to prevent contamination.
l Ensure that the control lever of the transmission drive is in the "out-of-drive" position before the engine is
started.
l Use extreme care if emergency repairs must be made in adverse conditions.
l Read and use the instructions relevant to "Engine lift equipment" on page 7.
