Machine Preparation
1. Park the machine on a flat level surface; lower the work equipment to the ground.
2. Raise the front loader arm to its maximum extend.
3. Secure the arm in the up position with the lift cylinder maintenance strut, also known as front end
loader cylinder lock.
4. Shut off the engine and cycle the controls to remove any residual hydraulic pressure from the
work equipment circuits.5. Engage the parking brake and block any tracks or wheels if necessary. Shut off the engine and
cycle the controls to remove any residual hydraulic pressure from the work equipment circuits.
6. Remove the key from the ignition switch until the work is complete.
7. Place a tag on the steering controls advising “This machine is being repaired. Do Not Start or
move this machine for any reason until this tag is removed by the repair person who placed it."
Remark
These instructions supplement the service data contained in the appropriate "Shop Manual."
Refer to that manual for Removal, Installation, Disassembly and Reassembly instructions when not
contained in this document.
IMPORTANT NOTE 1
There is a possibility the flex exhaust pipe part running down from the muffler to the exhaust stack will
be cracked or sheared. Said cracks more particular often occur on the connection of this flex pipe with the
exhaust stack (see next picture below). This flex pipe fatigue is caused by excess vibration of the muffler
bracket which this FC is set to eliminate. It is imperative that the technician inspects this part of the
exhaust system for exhaust gas leaks since serious damage can occur if major exhaust gas leaks occur in
this area.
In order to perform this inspection, open the hood and on the Backhoe loader’s right hand side the techni-
cian will find the flex pipe running down from the muffler to the exhaust stack (see pictures). Most cracks
have been experienced in the lower bent as shown in the picture. If an exhaust gas leak has occurred over
a longer period of time the inside of the hood and engine compartment will be sooth black.
If a flex pipe cracked recently, it may not be possible
to see a soothed area, therefore it will be necessary to
run the engine and find possible exhaust gas leaks if
they are not visible. In case of detection of small
exhaust gas leaks, such as a loose clamp, tighten theclamp, in case the flex pipe is broken or cracked,
proceed straight to “Section 4” of this Parts &
Service News.
WARNING! Observe all safety standards as dictated by the work conditions under which the
equipment will be inspected, reworked and repaired.
Consult the appropriate Shop Manual, Operation and Maintenance Manual, and your
Komatsu District Service Manager with any and all questions regarding safety.

Check the pipe connecting the turbo outlet to the
muffler for cracks. If any cracks are detected, go
straight to “Section 5” of this Parts & Service
News.
When the engine is running exhaust gas systems are hot. When the exhaust gas system is hot and thehuman skin comes in contact with the exhaust gas system, serious burns to the skin will occur. Even after
the engine is stopped, the exhaust gas system as well as the engine will remain hot for an extended period
of time. Use utmost care when working around hot engines and exhaust systems and wear appropriate
protective clothing.
IMPORTANT NOTE 2
This Parts & Service News handles two versions of engine. It handles the engines with and without the
wire tie support bracket.
Before beginning the work the technician should determine what version of engine he is about to
work on, with the wire tie support bracket or without.
The following pictures and explanation will guide the technician through the determination process.
The first 600 backhoes “WB146-5, WB146PS-5, WB156-5 and WB156PS-5” were manufactured with-
out the application of the wire tie bracket part number “42N-06-12211”. A running change altered this
and further on wire tie brackets “42N-06-12211” were installed on the engines. In order to determine
whether or not the bracket is installed, open the engine compartment hood and walk to the left hand side
of the machine, the side were the injection pump is located on the engine. Look at the injection lines run-
ning next to the valve covers and look if the wiring harness is tied to the injection lines (see Picture 1). Ifthis is the case, proceed to “Section 1” of this Parts & Service News and follow the directions for the
installation of the muffler strut of that section.
Typical Example
Note how the bolt head has vanished from the bolthole. The bolt actually
sheared and the technician will find thethreaded part still in the bolt hole.Remove the remaining part of the bolt.

Picture 1.
The picture shows how the wiring harness is
wire-tied to the injection line.
If no wiring harness is tied to the engine fuel
injection lines, then the engine is equipped
with a wire tie bracket part # 42N-06-12211
to which the wiring harness is tied. This will
look as shown on the picture below (see pic-
ture 2). If the engine is equipped with a wire
tie bracket part # 42N-06-12211, proceed to
“Section 2” of this P&SN.
Picture 2.
The picture on the right shows the wiring
harness tied to the wire-tie bracket part num-
ber 42N-06-12211.
Section 1.
Muffler Support Assembly and Lower Bracket removal.
Before removing the Muffler Support and Lower Bracket
from the engine, remove the heat shield above the muffler for
easy access to the muffler assembly.
