General
00-0001 Important Information
This manual is intended for use by technical personnel responsible for the maintenance and servicing of the MTU
Diesel Engine 183 series.
This manual describes:
− − − − scheduled service operations from maintenance echelons W5 and W6 as well as
− − − − non-scheduled service operations on the individual assemblies.
Component group structure
The manual is divided into component groups 00 to 22 These component groups are based on the Mercedes-Benz
assembly group key.
Each component group is subdivided into subgroups (Work Item Number).
Example:
01 - 1205
Since the Groups and Subgroups are arranged in a module system which applies to different engine types, the
numbering system is not in series. Alternative subgroups either have no index or are marked with an index "a, b, c"
etc.

The manual offers you the following options to help you quickly find the information you want:
− The designation in the component parts index indicates the subgroup
− An alphabetically sorted keyword index at the end of component group 00 provides direct access to the
individual component groups and subgroups.
− The Group Summary at the end of "Important Information" lists the individual component groups.
