LOCATIONS AND DESCRIPTIONS OF MAJOR COMPONENTS - Continued
Oil Filter
The oil filter (Figure 2, Item 17) is mounted on the lower left side of engine block for all except model 5063-5392.
Model 5063-5392 has it mounted near the left rear cylinder head. It filters the engine lubrication oil.
Governor
The governor (Figure 2, Item 9) is mounted on the rear end of the blower and driven from a blower drive gear. It is
used to control the idle and maximum engine operating speeds.
Oil Pan
The oil pan (Figure 2, Item 15) is mounted on the bottom of the cylinder block. It provides a reservoir for engine
oil.
Starter
The starter (Figure 2, Item 14) is mounted on right side of flywheel housing. It is an electric starter and engages
the flywheel ring gear.
Flywheel
The flywheel (Figure 2, Item 16) is mounted on the rear of the crankshaft. It is used to provide true alignment of
transmission flex plate.
Fuel Strainer
The fuel strainer (Figure 2, Item 11) is mounted differently on each model engine. On model 5063-5299, it is
remote mounted. On model 5063-5392, it is mounted near the left rear corner of the engine. On models
5063-5393 and 5063-539L, it is mounted on the lower right side. It filters fuel to fuel pump.
Fuel Filter
The fuel filter (Figure 2, Item 10) is mounted adjacent to the fuel strainer. It filters fuel to fuel inlet manifold.
Turbocharger
The turbocharger (Figure 2, Item 8) is mounted on the rear of the engine (models 5063-5393 and 5063-539L) or
on the blower (model 5063-5392). It increases engine power by delivering high pressure air to the blower using
exhaust gas energy. Model 5063-5299 has no turbocharger.
Glow Plugs
The glow plugs (Figure 2, Item 12) screw into the cylinder head and protrude into the combustion chamber for
model 5063-539L. They improve cold weather startability by heating the combustion chamber of each cylinder.
Glow Plug Controller
The glow plug controller (Figure 2, Item 13) is attached to a bracket located on the upper front cover. It is a control
module used to regulate the glow plug duty cycle for cold starting applications on model 5063-539L.
