Remove the engine mounting bolts (1) and the saddle bolts (2) from each side of the engine.
Illustration 3 g00586202
Typical example.
Remove the crankcase access covers. Place two steel beams (3) 152 × 152 mm (6 × 6 inch) through the crankcase housing near the ends of the engine block.
Illustration 4 g00586204
Typical example.
Place hard wood blocks under the steel beams that are through the crankcase housing. Use a suitable lifting device in order to raise the engine until there is enough room for the removal of the crankshaft. Illustration 4 shows a clearance (X) of 1067 mm (42 inch). The clearance (X) is from the top of the base to the bottom of the steel beam under the engine. The weight of the G3606 Engine is approximately 15,650 kg (34,500 lb). The weight of the G3608 Engine is approximately 20,412 kg (45,000 lb).
Illustration 5 g00586207
Typical example.
Place two steel beams 152 × 152 mm (6 × 6 inch) under the engine for support.
Use jacks in order to remove the oil pan from the engine. The weight of the oil pan is approximately 600 kg (1323 lb).
Never support a marine engine on hard wood blocks or steel beams. Vessel movement could cause engine movement. This may result in personal injury or death. Engine blocking for marine applications should only be done while the vessel is in drydock.
Place the tensioner in position under the rear main bearing cap.
Put the sleeve in position over the nuts. Install the wrench into one of the holes in the nut.
Raise the tensioner until the tensioner is against the reaction sleeve.
Install the adapter nuts. Tighten the nuts by using a 12 inch ratchet. After the nuts are tight, the nuts should be loosened 1 1/2 turns.
Before you operate the pump, ensure that all connections are secure. Ensure that all hoses are in good condition. Oil escaping under high pressure can cause personal injury.
Run the pump until a pressure of 62600 to 67400 kPa (9080 to 9776 psi)is registered on the gauge. This will put tension on the studs so that the nuts can be loosened. Refer to Engine News, "SEBD9405 The Stud Tensioner Tool Groups for 3600, C280, and G3600 Engines Require Different Hydraulic Pressures ".
Use the wrench in order to loosen each nut until the nut makes contact with the adapter nut. The nut should then be turned 90 degrees in the opposite direction.
Slowly release the hydraulic pressure.
Repeat Step 6 through Step 12.
Raise and support the rear main bearing cap. Remove the nuts and washers. Lower the rear main bearing cap. If necessary, tap the rear main bearing cap with a soft hammer in order to loosen the cap. The weight of each main bearing cap is approximately 69 kg (152 lb). Note: Remove only the rear main bearing cap at this time.
Remove the lower half of the main bearing from the rear main bearing cap. Put an identification number on the lower half of the main bearing.
