General information
About the Workshop Manual
This Workshop Manual contains technical data,
descriptions and repair instructions for the standard
version of engine units TAMD61A, TAMD62A,
TAMD63P-A, TAMD63L-A, TAMD71A, TAMD71B,
TAMD72A, TAMD72WJ-A, and TAMD72P-A.
The Workshop Manual shows the work procedure
conducted on an optional engine as per the above
specification, and therefore the illustrations and
photographs of certain details may not fully
correspond with other engines. The repair methods,
however, remain the same in all their critical parts. If
this should not be the case important differences will
be reported separately. The engine designation and
number is
indicated on the rating plate (see Workshop Manual
Group 21 Engine page 15). The engine designation
and number should be stated on all correspondence
concerning an engine.
The Workshop Manual is primarily produced for
Volvo Penta service workshops and their qualified
personnel. It is therefore assumed that persons using
this manual have basic competence on marine drive
systems and can conduct work of a mechanical/
electrical nature attendant to this profession.
Volvo Penta continuously develops its products, and
therefore we reserve the right to change technical
specifications without prior notice. All information in
this manual is based on product data available prior to
press. Any modifications of critical importance
introduced on the product or service methods after
this date are confirmed in the form of Service
Bulletins.
Spare parts
Spare parts for the electrical and fuel systems are
subject to different national safety regulations, e.g.
US Coast Guard Safety Regulations. Volvo Penta
Genuine Parts comply with these regulations. All
types of damage occurring as a result of the use of
non genuine Volvo Penta parts for the product in
question will not be regulated by the warranty
undertakings of Volvo Penta.
Certified engines
For engines which are certified for national and
regional environmental legislation the manufacturer
undertakes to ensure compliance with environmental
regulations both for new engines and those in use.
The product must comply with the approved example
on certification. In order for Volvo Penta as
manufacturer to ensure that engines in use comply
with the set environmental regulations the following
requirements for service and spare parts must be
fulfilled:
● Service intervals and maintenance procedures
recommended by Volvo Penta must be followed.
● Only Volvo Penta Genuine Parts, intended for the
certified engine version, must be used.
● Service which includes the ignition system,
ignition adjustment and fuel injection system
(petrol) or injection pumps, pump adjustment and
injectors (diesel) shall always be conducted by an
authorised Volvo Penta workshop.
● The engine must not be rebuilt or modified in any
way, with the exception of the accessories and
service sets which Volvo Penta has developed
for the engine.
● Installation modifications on exhaust pipes and
air intake channels for engine chambers
(ventilation channels) must not be made, since
this can influence exhaust emissions.
● Seals must not be broken by unauthorised
personnel.
IMPORTANT! When spare parts are
required use only Volvo Penta Genuine
Parts.
The use of non genuine parts implies
that AB Volvo Penta no longer assumes
responsibility for the compliance of the
engine with the certified version.
All types of damage or costs occurring as a
result of the use of non genuine Volvo
Penta parts for the product in question will
not be regulated by Volvo Penta.
