Who needs the Cummins ISX CM870 manual

Fleet rebuild shops use this ISX CM870 manual because Volume 1 documents the engine identification, troubleshooting symptoms and complete disassembly and assembly specifications required to overhaul the CM870-controlled ISX.

The CM870 control module introduced revised electronics for the mid-2000s ISX, yet the mechanical repair sequence in this volume still follows the familiar component-group layout, from the complete engine through the cylinder block, cylinder head and rocker levers. The manual sets out the general safety instructions, the definition of a clean assembly area and the gasket surface preparation required before parts are refitted. Volume 1 handles engine and system identification, troubleshooting symptoms and the upper engine groups, while the companion Volume 2 continues the rest; Cummins recommends genuine Cummins or ReCon exchange parts throughout and lists the 1-800-DIESELS line for authorized repair locations. The specifications reflect the information in effect at the time of printing.
