hi,
would be interested in a few of these manuals how do we go about it?
thanks,
jack

Documents currently in-print can be purchased at Lister retail. Out-of-print volumes can be purchased at an average $20-$25, or these can be scanned to pdf files about $10 per, or reprinted into booklet form $15-$20. The pricing is intended to cover only the costs for the service paper/reproduction/digital storage, not to generate revenue based on the document content. Intent here is to keep a comprehensive library of service information accessible for the old Lister stuff, especially obsolete machines. I have found the time to get this stuff put up on the web-site so thought this forum an appropriate place to offer them. If you have any documents not in the list, I would be interested in trading to fill in the gaps.

Jack,


I have a good selection of Lister and Petter manuals in my collection. Let me know what engine you are interested in and I will email you the thing for free.

[jackbauer]

i'm looking for the workshop manual for the LT1 and any info on ST1 based gen sets. Have bought an LT1 on ebay with no compression.fingers crossed email mrmagu@utvinternet.com many thanks.

[emerald]

Ok, I have the parts and operator manual for that. I will send it along to you.


Emerald

[jackbauer]

got it! thanks very much:)

Hi Emerald,


You wouldn't happen to have a workshop/repair manual for an ST2, by any chance? I do not exactly know the year of built, or anything alse for that matter except that it is a 2 cylinder . But the serial is 131785ST2. RPM and HP also not known.

Any info you have would be welcome in my attempt to get this engine running again. Can you possibly mail it to lister@rochemont.nl

Thanks very much
James

[dieselgman]

Hello,

From your serial # your machine was built in 1963. The full specs for the ST series are readily available, I can email some pages if you like. Same goes for the manuals.

Excuse me guys, this relates specifically to a GTC 6-1 lister "clone", (current Indian production, TRB type, external oil pump, dip-splash oiled, CS valve operational). I've got one that's got less than 8 hours on it and it has an intermittent squallerin' noise it its guts. The noise tends toward becoming continuous (getting worse). My judgement is that this is a rod bearing that's too tight (I don't see what else could make this squallerin' noise). So, I opened 'er up and there seems to be no diametrical movement at the rod, slight side movement, but nothing up n down. (It's a shimmed rod cap)  Anyway, since y'all have got some Lister books I wonder what's the rod-to-journal clearance recommended in a genuine Lister 6-1?  I can fake this - and make the clearance .003" (that's my personal opinion of what it ought to be), but if you guys know, based on your factory books, what the factory said, I'd sure appreciate knowing. If somebody'd email me a few pages related to fitting a shimmed rod that'd be great too. (I'm old and an experienced millwright, I've seen lots of machinery, but asking questions is always a good first step.) Thanks, Phaedrus

Hi Gary,


Thanks, I have send you an e-mail. Any info about this particualr liser, or other info which can help me further is welcome.

[dieselgman]

Phaedrus,

I can email the spec for your 6/1 crankshaft journals and bearing clearances from our data book.

Gary
diesel-electric.us

[phaedrus]

Thanks to you, Dieselman - specifications much appreciated. Phaedrus.

[dieselgman]

From the Lister instruction book regarding conrod big end bearings (CS types);

clearance should not exceed .003". So that the two halves of the bearing shall register firmly one against the other, the Big End cap is made to draw up to within .002in. of the top half. This "nip" should be measured with a feeler guage after assembly, and before the Big End nuts are tightened. New Big End Bearings will require a certain amount of hand scraping when being fitted.

From the Lister data book - technical data page 44;

Main journals wear limits: .008"
Rod journals wear limits: .007"

Page 42 in the same manual is difficult for me to read due to age/wear. If anyone has this document and can copy us page 42 that would add some important crankshaft size and machining data.

Hope this helps,

Gary

This is some additional Big End bearing instruction taken from Lister manuals for the CS 6-1.
Connecting Rod Big End Bearing

These are steel back white metalled shells in the bottom half and lead bronze in the top half and must not be scraped or touched up in any way. The running clearance with the crankpin should not exceed 0.003 in. (0.076 mm.).
When assembling the bearings on the connecting rod it is most important that the backs are scrupulously clean and that there is interference between the bearing and the bore of the connecting rod. This interference, or nip, is measured by placing the bearing in the connecting rod, tightening both bolts to the normal extent, then slackening one bolt only and measuring the corresponding gap in the rod at the parting line. This gap should be between 0.004 in. (0.102 mm.) and 0.006 in. (0.152 mm.).
Ensure the dipper is secure before replacing the connecting rod cap; it is screwed in place and 4 dots punched into the circumference prevent turning. Place a cork over the end of the dipper whenever working in the crankcase to avoid injury to the hands.
Tightening torque for big end nuts is 55 lb. ft. (7.6 kg. m.)
