For questions or additional information concerning this Guideline, contact Caterpillar Service Support Division, Dealer Support (309) 675-5434. Summary This Guideline applies to camshafts for all engines regardless of bore size. It will give visual guidelines to show the difference between a reusable camshaft and one that is not reusable. This Guideline and SEBF8097, "Camshaft Measurement", must be used to determine if a camshaft is either reusable, requires repair, or needs to be replaced with a new camshaft. Never use a camshaft that this Guideline shows cannot be used again.

GUIDELINE FOR REUSABLE PARTS AND SALVAGE OPERATIONS


Visual Inspection of Camshaft

If the camshaft meets the requirement set forth in this Guideline and SEBF8097 it can be expected to give normal performance until the next overhaul, when used again in the same application.

Equipment for Crack Inspection and Polishing

Introduction This Guideline enables dealers and their customers to benefit from cost reductions made possible through an established parts reusability and salvage program. Every effort has been made to provide the most current and relevant information known to Caterpillar Inc. Since the Company makes ongoing changes and improvements to its products, this Guideline must be used with the latest technical

The procedure, materials, and equipment required to polish camshafts are identical to polishing crankshafts. Refer to SEBF8042, "Procedure to Polish Crankshafts" for polishing instructions. General Information Before Visual Inspection Immediately after the camshaft has been removed from the engine, look for any clear signs of heavy damage that cannot be corrected by reconditioning. Illustration 1 Inspection for cracks with a Magnaflux inspection machine. NOTICE If the camshaft will not be inspected immediately (less than one hour after it is cleaned), put a layer of engine oil on the journals and lobes to prevent corrosion. Clean the camshaft with a high-pressure wash, steam, solvent, vapor degreaser, or caustic bath and rinse.

Slipper Follower Camshaft Illustration 2 Equipment needed to polish camshafts. 1. For good service life, install each slipper follower in its original location, so that it runs against the same camshaft lobe. 2. A new slipper follower can be installed on a used camshaft, if the camshaft meets reusability guidelines. 3. If a new camshaft is installed, use new or reconditioned followers.

Note: If a slipper follower camshaft shows wear, then it is only reusable when used in the original block with original lifters, matched to the appropriate lobe. The lifter must have mirror-like surface before the camshaft and lifter can be reused.

Roller Follower Camshaft 4. Always install used roller followers in their original locations and original direction. 5. A new roller follower can be installed on a used camshaft if the camshaft meets reusability guidelines. 6. New roller followers should be installed on new camshaft segments. 7. If replacement of a camshaft is the result of damage to one or more of its lobes, do not reuse the followers that operated against the damaged lobes. Nomenclature

Storage Procedures Proper protection of the camshaft from corrosion is very important. Corrosion can start within minutes after the camshaft has been cleaned. It must be inspected and protected as soon as possible. If the storage period is expected to be less than three months, a layer of engine oil must be put on the complete camshaft. If a longer period of storage is desired, apply rust inhibitor as recommended in the chart. Complete instructions on the application and removal of these materials are available from the manufacturers. Chart A.
