Part of the Case IH Repair Manuals.
Crankshaft out, bearing caps on the bench, and no torque figures within reach. The Case IH 445/M2, 445T/M2 Repair Manual PDF, 180 pages under OEM number 6-17660, is the factory book for this four cylinder engine. Overhaul is split by feed system, so you follow one path for the mechanical rotary pump and another for the in-line pump unit, each running from engine setting through disassembly to feed system bleed. Cylinder unit, timing system, output shaft, connecting rod and piston, and cylinder head work fill the largest stretch of the book, backed by clearance data, troubleshooting charts and maintenance planning. Set injection pressure at 245 bar on the F4GE0404A*D6 and 260 bar on the rest, check that the thermostat starts opening at 81 ± 2 °C, and pull main bearing caps to 50 ± 6 Nm before the 80 ± 6 Nm second stage. Every hour that engine sits apart costs you. Bookmarked and text searchable, so the section you want is two clicks away.
