Deutz B 413, FL 413, R 413, FR 413, FRW 413 Workshop Manual

You’re staring at a pile of parts that used to be a Deutz diesel. If you don’t have the factory specs for your B 413, FL 413, R 413, FR 413, or FRW 413, you’re gambling with expensive hardware. I’ve seen more than one guy strip a head bolt because he trusted a third-party PDF. This is the real thing – the Deutz B 413, FL 413, R 413, FR 413, FRW 413 Workshop Manual from KHD, 258 pages, straight from the Cologne factory. Every injection timing, every torque value, every piston ring gap – it’s all in here, written in the language the engineers used.

Technical Data – What You Need to Know

The first section after the foreword and key to symbols is Technische Daten (Technical Data). That’s where you’ll find the numbers that keep the engine from scattering itself across the shop floor: compression pressures, valve clearances, fuel injection pressures, and oil capacities. Deutz doesn’t hide these in an appendix – they put them front and center because they know that’s the first thing you’ll look for. If you’re swapping a head gasket on a B 413 or setting injection timing on an FL 413, start here. The manual also includes the supplement for the BF6L 513 R engine, so if you’re working on that variant you’ve got the updated specs.

Injections, Tests, Checking, Adjusting – Fuel System Procedures

Under Prüfung und Einstellung (Injections, Tests, Checking, Adjusting) the manual walks through every fuel system check: injector opening pressure, pump timing, governor adjustments. There’s no guesswork. For the R 413 and FR 413, the specified injection pump timing is given with the engine at top dead center. You’ll also find the procedure for checking the delivery valve holder tightening torque. Don’t try to wing it – one misfire and you’re chasing a no-start for hours.

Repair of Components – Cylinder Head, Pistons, and Valves

The Bauteile-Instandsetzen (Repair of Components) chapter covers what you came here for: cylinder head disassembly, valve guide replacement, piston ring fitting, and connecting rod big end clearance. Each step has the OEM tolerance. For example, the valve seat angle and runout limits are given in both metric and inch equivalents. Need to know the piston protrusion spec for an FRW 413? It’s in the table under that chapter. The manual also lists the required special tools for pressing out valve guides – you’ll see those in the Spezialwerkzeug section later.

Dismantling and Reassembling the Complete Engine

This section, Demontage und Montage, Motor komplett, is the backbone of any overhaul. It covers everything from removing the oil pan to torquing the main bearing caps. Deutz specifies a multi-pass tightening sequence for the cylinder head bolts on the FL 413 – first to 130 Nm, then a 90-degree turn. Miss that angle and you’ll be doing it again. The manual shows the exact order and the tool you need. Also included: cleaning instructions for the crankcase ventilation system, and a note about replacing the O-rings on the oil cooler lines. That’s the kind of detail aftermarket PDFs omit.

Exhaust Turbocharger – Factory Rebuild Procedure

The Abgasturbolader (Exhaust Turbocharger) chapter gives you the shaft play limits and the correct tightening torque for the turbine housing bolts. For the FR 413 and FRW 413 models with a turbo, this is critical. Too much axial play and the compressor wheel contacts the housing. The manual tells you exactly how to check it with a dial indicator. No “wiggle test” – actual numbers.

3 Reasons to Choose OEM Documentation Over Aftermarket

First, the torque values. OEM specs are tested on the actual engine. Aftermarket manuals often copy errors from previous editions. Second, the wiring diagrams – this manual uses the original KHD numbering, so you can trace a wire from the alternator to the regulator without guessing. Third, the special tool list. Deutz lists the part numbers for every tool – you can buy or rent the exact tool instead of improvising with a pipe wrench and a prayer. I’ve seen too many botched repairs because someone used a generic manual. This is the supplement to the main workshop manual – it’s the update that covers the BF6L 513 R changes.

Does This Manual Cover the B 413 and FL 413 Variants?

Yes, all five models are covered: B 413, FL 413, R 413, FR 413, and FRW 413. The supplement is specifically for the B/FL 413 R/FR/FRW series. If you’ve got a bare B 413 or an FRW 413 with a turbo and intercooler, the technical data and repair procedures apply. The manual is bilingual – German and English – with Spanish and French in the supplement. The 258 pages include the complete contents from foreword to special tools.

Is this manual in English?

Yes. The main text is in German and English side-by-side. The supplement includes French and Spanish translations for the critical sections. You get all languages in the same PDF.

Does it cover the BF6L 513 R engine?

It is a supplement specifically for the BF6L 513 R. The base workshop manual covers the B/FL 413 series; this supplement adds the 513 R updates. So yes, it includes that engine.

What torque specs are listed?

Major fasteners: cylinder head bolts (multi-pass with angle), main bearing cap bolts, connecting rod bolts, flywheel bolts, injection pump mounting bolts, and turbocharger housing bolts. Each torque is given in Nm and ft-lb. The manual also includes stretch bolt specifications where applicable.

Can I use this for the FRW 413 with a turbo?

Absolutely. The FRW 413 is one of the five models covered. The turbocharger section (Exhaust Turbocharger) has specific procedures for that model, including shaft play checks and oil supply line torque.
