Importance of exploded views for Volvo Penta spare parts
Exploded views are graphical representations of assemblies in which all components are visible individually and in the correct positional relationship. They show
-
each individual component of an assembly
-
associated item numbers
-
OEM spare part numbers
These visualizations are indispensable for maintenance and repair in order to clearly identify the correct spare part.
Structure of the exploded views (engine, Z-drive, Saildrive)
Volvo Penta exploded views typically cover the following system areas:
-
Engine assemblies - pistons, cylinder head, cooling and exhaust systems
-
Z-drive components - intermediate housing, gearbox housing, underwater parts
-
Saildrive elements - seals, housings, rudder and drive shafts
Each assembly is shown with item numbers and the corresponding spare part numbers so that you can search specifically for the required spare parts.
