Chapters Covered

The Perkins 2800 Series 2806C-E16 workshop manual is organised into sixteen chapters that move from general information through to special tools, covering every major assembly on the 2306 and 2806 engines. The contents below reflect the chapter headings and primary operation groups as printed in the manual’s table of contents.

• 2 Specifications — Basic engine data for 2306 and 2806 engines, rocker assemblies, valves, valve guides, valve springs, valve seat inserts, cylinder head, camshaft and bearings, pistons and connecting rods, crankshaft, main bearings, flywheel, crankshaft damper, crankcase and cylinder liners, lubricating oil pump, coolant pump, recommended torque figures
• 3 Cylinder head assembly — Rocker cover, rocker lever and rocker shaft assemblies, tappet clearance adjustment, cylinder head removal and fitting, valve springs, valves, valve seals, valve guides, camshaft, camshaft gear backlash, electronic injector units, injector sleeves
• 4 Pistons and connecting rod assemblies — Piston and connecting rod removal, dismantling and assembly, piston cooling jets
• 5 Crankshaft assembly — Crankshaft removal and fitting, front and rear seal and wear sleeve renewal, crankshaft vibration damper
• 6 Gear case and drive assembly — Gear case cover, timing gears, gear case removal and fitting, timing gear position check
• 7 Crankcase and cylinder liners — Front engine support, cylinder liner removal and fitting, cylinder liner protrusion check and adjustment
• 8 Engine timing and electronic controls — Electronic control module removal and fitting, engine timing check
• 9 Aspiration system — Exhaust manifold, turbocharger removal, dismantling and assembly
• 10 Lubrication system — Oil filter and oil filter header, sump, oil pump removal, dismantling and assembly
• 11 Fuel system — Fuel priming pump, fuel transfer pump, drive for the fuel transfer pump, fuel filter header, low pressure fuel system air elimination
• 12 Cooling system — Cooling system inspection and leakage test, coolant filler cap test, radiator, fan, fan drive assembly, fan drive belts, engine oil cooler, thermostats and thermostat housing, coolant temperature sensor, coolant pump
• 13 Flywheel and housing — Flywheel removal and fitting, flywheel housing removal and fitting

• 16 Special tools — Complete list of Perkins special tools referenced throughout the manual

Across its 158 pages, this Perkins 2800 Series workshop manual gives a technician the complete overhaul and service sequence for the 2306 and 2806 turbocharged diesel engines. Each chapter opens with a general information section and then presents numbered operations — remove and fit, dismantle and assemble, check and adjust — supported by illustrations, cross-references to the specifications chapter, and the special tool numbers needed for the job. The manual assumes the engine is out of the machine or accessible for major work; it is written for industrial applications of the 2800 Series, not for a specific vehicle installation.

Specifications and Torque Data

Chapter 2 of this Perkins 2806C-E16 manual is a full specification section covering the 2306 and 2806 engine variants side by side. It lists cylinder arrangement, cycle, induction and combustion system details, nominal bore and stroke, compression ratio, cubic capacity, firing order, direction of rotation, lubricating oil capacity and pressure, and typical coolant capacity for engine and radiator. Dimensional specifications are broken down for rocker assemblies, valve stems and heads, valve guides, valve springs, valve seat inserts, cylinder head thickness and flatness, camshaft journals and lobe lift, piston ring gaps, gudgeon pin and connecting rod bores, crankshaft main and connecting rod journals, main bearing clearances, crankshaft end-float, cylinder liner bore and flange thickness, crankcase bore centres, and crankshaft damper run-out.

Torque figures are provided for metric fasteners from M6 through M36, imperial fasteners from 1/4 inch through 1-1/2 inch, taperlock studs in both systems, O-ring face seal fittings, 37-degree flared fittings, 45-degree flared and inverted flare fittings, tapered pipe thread fittings, and standard hose clamps. A note in the manual explains that torque figures for nonferrous fittings should be halved.

Special Tools and Safety Content

Chapter 16 lists the complete set of Perkins special tools referenced by number throughout the operations — engine turning tools, cylinder liner installer and remover, piston ring compressors, camshaft guide and cradle tools, valve spring compressor, injector sleeve remover/installer, crankshaft seal locator and installer sets, pressurising pump for cooling system testing, and more. Each operation in the manual identifies the relevant special tools and consumable products at the start, so a technician can plan the job before starting.

Safety content in Chapter 1 covers general safety precautions, the 110-volt injector circuit warning, Viton seal handling, welding precautions around the ECM, and environmental protection guidance. These are Perkins’ own precautions for the 2800 Series and are repeated where relevant throughout the operation text.
