How many liters of oil are in the KAMAZ 4310 engine. KamAZ 4310 engine oil volume

Why know how much oil a KamAZ engine should have?

In older truck models, oil was responsible for lubricating the components of the power unit. In modern engines, engine oil also performs other functions:

• ensuring the cleanliness of the internal combustion engine by dissolving contaminants and neutralizing acids;
• increasing the strength and anti-corrosion properties of metal;
• protection of parts from temperature changes;
• cooling of engine components;
• efficient crankcase heating;
• cold engine start;
• protection of the engine from external adverse factors.

Therefore, maintaining the required volume of oil in the KamAZ engine is mandatory to maintain the serviceability of the power unit and all its components. In addition, the oil is subject to scheduled replacement according to the instructions of the engine manufacturer.

Why is this information needed?

It may seem strange to many that the amount of oil in the engine is becoming a frequent question among owners of this transport equipment. But in reality, it is necessary to take into account the differences between old and new KamAZ models. If previously oil fluid was required to lubricate components, now motor oils are used for a number of additional functions:

• this allows you to ensure the cleanliness of the internal combustion engine, since contaminants are dissolved and acids are neutralized;
• increase in strength and anti-corrosion properties of metal parts;
• temperature stability;
• timely cooling of structural elements and engine components;
• crankcase heating;
• possibility of cold start;
• protection from negative external aspects.

From this we can conclude that maintaining the required volume of oil fluid in the engine is a mandatory factor. It is important to monitor scheduled replacement processes in accordance with recommendations from engine manufacturers.

Basic properties of oils

Modern motor oils are made from mineral and synthetic base oils, have additive packages, and therefore have different viscosity and thermal oxidation parameters, and can operate under different temperature conditions and loads.

Basic oil requirements for 740 engines:

• Viscosity: the KamAZ engine requires oil with a high level of friction protection.
• Features of engine operation: must be no harsher than those specified by the engine oil manufacturer.

In order for the KamAZ engine to function properly, it is necessary to use oils recommended by the manufacturer and know how many liters need to be filled.

General information

Among the many different trucks, KamAZ-43114 occupies a special and worthy place. His merits speak for themselves. Military equipment is treated with particular seriousness, as it must withstand any, even the heaviest, loads. 43114 entered service back in 1995, remaining in the military to this day. Many characteristics allow KamAZ to fulfill its tasks with dignity.

The three-axle vehicle can accelerate to ninety kilometers per hour. This is a lot for such a tractor. A mountain with a slope of thirty degrees is not a hindrance to him either. KamAZ-43114 is capable of overcoming many obstacles. In difficult times, a winch with a hook or loop can always help him. An interesting page in the life history of KamAZ is its participation in the Dakar desert race. No, 43114 did not participate in the races, he was on the accompanying team.

What volume of oil is needed in a KamAZ engine

The oil level should be exactly halfway between the maximum and minimum marks; readings outside this scale are considered critical. And the amount of oil is determined by the model and modification of the internal combustion engine.

Oil standards for the KamAZ 740 engine:

• 28 l: for power units 740.10, which are used for KamAZ 5320, 4310 vehicles, and for engines 740.55, used in trucks model 43118;
• 29.7 L: for engines 7403.10 used on models 4310, 43114, 5320, 55111, 53212;
• 30 l: for engines 740.11, 740.12, 740.13, which are used on KamAZ 65115;
• 33.2 l: for internal combustion engines 740.50 and 740.51, used on KamAZ 6520, 55111.

The following oil volumes are available for Cummins engines:

• 8.9 l: provided in ISBe and ISLe engines;
• 15 l: in the ISX15 engine.

In general, the oil volume in a KAMAZ engine can reach 35 liters, depending on the model. And the volume is determined using an oil dipstick.

To do this, you need to install the machine on a strictly horizontal surface without tilting. The following rules must be observed:

• The check can be carried out no earlier than 5–10 minutes after the engine has stopped running.
• To check, use a special probe, focusing on the Min and Max marks.
• The dipstick is wiped with a clean cloth that does not leave fibers or other foreign particles.

In order to measure the oil in the internal combustion engine, you need to open the hood and remove the dipstick. Wipe the dipstick dry with a rag and put it in place for 2-3 seconds - the oil level is determined by the mark. The optimal oil level is between the Min and Max marks.

At the same time, when monitoring the oil level, you can check the quality of the liquid by the presence of impurities or color changes. It is recommended to monitor the oil level and quality daily.

Device

The car is based on a frame made up of 2 side members and several cross members. The frame is available in a single version with a base of 3340 mm. The rear cross member of the frame is equipped with a towing device and an outlet for connecting the trailer brakes to the pneumatic system of the tractor.

The drive axles are unified in design and have a drive-through design. The front axle drive cannot be switched off. The axle suspension is spring, the front axle has additional hydraulic shock absorbers. The steering is equipped with a hydraulic booster.

Above the engine is a fully metal cabin designed for a driver and 2 passengers. The driver's seat is mounted on a spring shock absorber. Adjustable for backrest angle, distance from the pedals and driver weight.

The onboard version of KamAZ-43114-15 is equipped with an all-metal platform with the ability to install an awning and a cabin with a berth behind the seats. The floor of the platform is covered with planks; it is possible to install folding benches to accommodate 30 people. The model 43114 chassis comes with a cab without a sleeper, but a long cab is also available on request. The power unit is covered with soundproofing screens, which increase the acoustic comfort in the cabin.

How often does the oil need to be changed?

It is recommended to change the oil in the KamAZ engine at least every 10,000–15,000 km of the truck. And if the color of the oil changes, this procedure must be performed immediately. There are other factors that force you to deviate from the instructions:

• Unfavorable conditions: harsh climate, bad roads, constant overloads affect the condition of lubricants, and most often, changing the engine oil is required earlier than the period established by the manufacturer.
• Poor quality fuel: affects the thermal conditions of the engine and provokes the formation of impurities in the oil.
• Vehicle service life: the older the KamAZ, the shorter the intervals between lubricant changes.

Manual

Includes stages:

• control and setting of free play of the clutch control pedal;
• adjusting the stroke of the clutch control;
• checking the stroke of the drive pusher with pneumatic booster.

1. Set the pedal travel within 6-12 mm. The measurement is taken along the middle part of the foot area. The stroke is changed by rotating the eccentric, which adjusts the gap between the piston and the master cylinder piston pin. The setting is performed with the pedal released. After adjustment, the eccentric nut is tightened and secured with a cotter pin.
2. Check the pedal stroke. With a correctly set gap, the stroke varies between 185-195 mm.
3. The clutch stroke is changed by shifting the lever mounted on the fork. The displacement is made using a nut. The normal stroke is 3.2-4 mm.
4. The pusher stroke is measured with the pedal fully pressed to the floor. The stroke must be at least 25 mm. The reduction in stroke is affected by incorrect free play of the pedal, as well as fluid leaks or airing of the circuit.

The electrical circuit of the all-terrain vehicle has a voltage of 24 V; the car body is used as a negative conductor. Power sources are two batteries with a capacity of 190 Ah and a generator mounted on the engine.

Crane installation based on KamAZ-53501 and its features

Although crane installations are manufactured on various chassis brands of trucks, a military vehicle equipped with a crane requires a base that meets the following requirements:

• High off-road capability of the model on which the crane installation will be installed;
• The reliability of the vehicle itself and the ability to work in the most difficult conditions;
• Reliability of the crane installation itself.

The crane installation has an additional brake. This requirement was mandatory, since a military truck crane often has to load/unload explosives. The operation of the truck crane is assumed to use 2 people, the driver and the crane operator. Communication between them must be carried out using special intercoms.

Vehicles are equipped with various crane options. It depends on the type of troops for which this special vehicle is intended.

Cooling system prevention

Kamaz pump

When connecting units, remember about regular preventive maintenance, which determines the condition of KamAZ.

Use the liquid taking into account the optimal temperature of use. When pouring technical fluid, follow the basic rules of the procedure. Monitor the temperature of the liquid. The minimum indicator is 80 degrees, the maximum is 98. This temperature is optimal for the equipment. Regularly check the amount of fluid available. The normal level should be two thirds of the volume of the used tank. The fluid is changed regularly. The procedure is carried out once a year. Over time, the characteristics of the liquid deteriorate and it is difficult for units to connect to the system and perform work tasks. Monitor the condition of equipment and the tightness of structures. Liquid leakage is unacceptable, as it reduces the service life of the technical system. If the temperature regime is violated, check the condition of the thermostats and the fluid coupling switch sensor. In summer, the units are regularly monitored. If necessary, carry out cleaning measures to eliminate contamination. Prevention and maintenance are carried out taking into account the condition of the equipment

The circuit diagram for switching on the KamAZ Euro 2 cooling fan and other parts is taken into account. The tension of the vehicle belts is important. The tension is checked by pressing on the middle of the branch with a force of 4 kgf

Belts usually bend by 15-22 millimeters. In other cases, adjust the tension. Maintenance involves regularly draining the old cooling system. It is forbidden to start the engine for short-term operation after the procedure. This leads to overheating of parts and premature failure of equipment, since it cannot be connected properly after the procedure.

The use of a reliable sensor for turning on the KamAZ cooling fan and other devices is mandatory, taking into account the condition of the vehicle, weather conditions, and driving characteristics. Careful monitoring of technical characteristics and regular maintenance are carried out to ensure the full operation of the equipment responsible for the cooling process.
