230LCRD HYEX: Get The Right Engine!

 
This article initially appeared in PS 794 (Jan 19), p. 19.  
         
Mechanics,

Make sure you check the data plate on the 230LCRD hydraulic excavator’s (HYEX) engine before ordering a new one.
        
There are two different Type II engines used on these vehicles:
 
  • Model TO6068HT051 6-cylinder main engine, NSN 2815-01-483-5846
    (Note: This engine is also used on the 230LCR Type I HYEX)
     
  • Model TO4045TT050 4-cylinder air compressor engine, NSN 2815-01-483-5854
A few seconds reading the data plate can save lots of downtime from ordering the wrong engine.
