description

This 423-7588 camshaft assembly is integrally forged from high-purity alloy steel. Cam profiles are precision ground to OEM lift curve for C18 industrial generator version with deep carburizing quenching. Timing gear and locating spacer are pre-assembled for direct installation. It synchronizes intake, exhaust and fuel timing, fixing unstable power, high exhaust emission, gear housing noise and rough idle. It fits long-time constant-power operation for power station, complete timing assembly for C18 industrial engine, not interchangeable with mining versions 423-7586 and 423-7587.

Part No.:423-7588
Name:Camshaft Assembly

Maintenance & Replacement Tips

1. Support the whole shaft during lifting, do not lift by gear to avoid gear shift and shaft bending
2. Mark timing position before removal, align marks strictly during assembly
3. Clean all oil galleries thoroughly and remove debris to guarantee stable journal lubrication
4. Inspect tappets, push rods, valve springs and bearings; replace heavily worn parts together
5. Increase load slowly during break-in, monitor voltage, oil pressure and exhaust temperature, avoid sudden overload

FAQ 

Q:Can 423-7588 generator camshaft assembly replace mining 423-7586 and 423-7587?
A:Not interchangeable. Different timing and fuel curve will cause poor combustion and abnormal power.

Q:Can the camshaft be reused after light journal scratches are polished and measured?
A:It can be used temporarily if dimension stays within tolerance. Deep grooves require replacement to avoid bearing seizure.

Q:How to store this camshaft assembly properly?
A:Hang vertically, apply anti-rust oil on gear teeth and cam lobes, cover with dust film and avoid impact.

Q:Is oil and filter change recommended while replacing this camshaft assembly?
A:New engine oil and filter are recommended to protect new cam lobes from oil impurities.
