DAF Manual Features & Content Preview
Built around 14 DAF workshop publications, this set covers mechanical repair, electrical troubleshooting, DAVIE diagnostics, scheduled service, and cab work for the DAF 95XF. The main workshop chapters are 95XF-specific. DAVIE XD and the special-tools catalog are shared DAF references, so their procedures and tool listings must be matched to the systems fitted to the truck.
- Chassis configurations: Lists FT and FA 4x2; FTP, FTG, FTS/R, and FAS/R 6x2; FTT and FAT 6x4; FTC, FAC, and FAK 8x2; and FTD and FAD 8x4 layouts, including leading, trailing, tandem, and second-steered axle arrangements.
- XF and XE engine repair: Covers XF 280 M, XF 315 M, and XF 355 M Euro 2 engines with the conventional fuel system, plus XE 280 C, XE 315 C/C2, XE 355 C, and XE 390 C Euro 3 engines with UPEC. Factory procedures include engine and cylinder-head removal, valve-bridge and valve-clearance adjustment, timing-gear work, compression and injector testing, pump-unit service, fuel-system bleeding, turbocharger checks, DEB/exhaust-brake adjustment, cooling-system pressure tests, and oil-pump repair.
- Transmission and driveline systems: Details HGS, LHD/RHD MGS, Servo Shift, pneumatic gearbox controls, 16S gearboxes, clutch hydraulics, drive shafts, ZF Intarder, Voith Retarder 133-2, and N71/1, N353/1, N71/2, N353/2, and N221/10 PTO versions. Covered work includes gearbox removal, control adjustment, clutch bleeding, bearing-clearance checks, oil-seal replacement, universal-joint service, retarder removal, and PTO installation.
- Brakes, steering, and suspension: Includes compressor, air-dryer, service-brake valve, load-sensing valve, relay/quick-release valve, spring-brake, and slack-adjuster diagnosis and repair, with separate load-sensing coverage for air- and leaf-suspension layouts. Vehicle-combination brake balancing, TAS 75 and THP 80/TAS 85 single-circuit steering, TAS 86 dual-circuit steering without a slave box, TAS 87 dual-circuit steering with a slave box, steering-system bleeding, shock absorbers, stabilizers, torque rods, and leaf-spring assemblies are also covered.
- Rear axles and hydraulic lifting gear: Identifies single axles 1347 and 1354, tandem axle 1355 T, trailing axles 09N075 and 09N220, and the 09N044 leading rear axle used on FTP configurations. Procedures include wheel-bearing inspection and adjustment, hub and seal work, axle-shaft and differential removal, differential-lock checks, axle alignment, and hydraulic lifting-gear testing and bleeding.
- Electrical and DAVIE diagnosis: Provides production-specific wiring information, component code-number overviews, connector locations, circuit and subdiagram interpretation, multimeter checks, and fault isolation for shorts, open circuits, and ground faults. DAVIE coverage includes EBS/ABS/ASR, UPEC, AS Tronic, VIC, EMAS, CDS-3, ECAS-2/3, EBS-2, AGS, ZF Intarder EST42, ALS-S, and immobilizer systems, with fault-code references, customer parameters, system inspections, initialization, actuator tests, height-sensor calibration, VSC calibration, and radar-sensor checks.
- Cab, maintenance, specifications, and special tools: Documents complete cab removal, cab suspension, tilt-pump and lift-cylinder repair, heating and exterior cab components, ISRI 6800 seat service, maintenance schedules, and approved fluids and lubricants. The tool publication identifies DAF tools by vehicle and assembly, including wheel-bearing tool 0535595, hub-nut wrench 0694894, engine-cranking tool 1310477, and hub-seal/ABS sensor-ring installer 1240036.
Production-specific electrical coverage
The electrical volume separates the wiring by major chassis breaks. Base circuit diagram 1316630/05 is followed by 1316630/06-12 from chassis 0E459335, 1316630/13-23 from 0E473500, 1316630/24-29 from 0E477514, and 1316630/30 from 0E527418. Options and special applications use diagram 1232300/34. These divisions help match connector locations, circuit paths, and installed electrical options to the truck’s production stage.
Named illustrations include the Overview Drawing of the Fuel System, Overview Drawing of the Timing Gear, Pneumatic Diagram of the Gearbox Control, Overview Drawing, 09N044 Leading Rear Axle, Overview Drawing of Cab Tilting Pump, and Sectional Drawing of Air Suspension Element. Brake diagrams with a DIN-symbol legend, connector-location views, component section drawings, test sheets, diagnostic tables, and exploded assembly views support the related repair sections.
Specifications are arranged by assembly and include component-specific torque tables, pressure-test data, fluid capacities and approved-product lists, wear limits, clearances, alignment data, electrical test values, DAVIE customer parameters, and calibration information.
Important scope limits and workshop cautions
DAVIE XD is labeled for LF45, LF55, CF65, CF75, CF85, and XF95 applications. The special-tools publication covers several DAF F-series, CF, LF, 95XF, and XF95 families. The installed control unit, component configuration, and applicable 95XF workshop chapter determine which shared diagnostic or tooling entries apply.
The brake volume is centered on 95XF pneumatic drum-brake hardware and vehicle-combination balancing; electronic ABS/EBS fault diagnosis is handled in DAVIE XD. The 16S chapter covers gearbox controls, removal, external seals, bearing checks, clutch, retarder, and PTO work rather than a complete internal gear-train rebuild. The XF/XE engine material covers removal, cylinder-head and timing work, external assemblies, cooling, and lubrication, but not a full short-block overhaul. VF valve, unit-injector, and C-brake procedures appear only in the maintenance manual and do not constitute a full VF engine repair section.
The clutch chapters warn that even minor mineral-oil contamination damages the hydraulic seals. The cab-tilt section identifies welding spatter or paint on the lift-cylinder rod as an oil-seal failure risk and notes that collision damage can compromise the cylinder’s internal stop.
Cab-tilt, spring-brake, steering, axle, and retarder work involves heavy assemblies and stored hydraulic or pneumatic energy. Follow the manual’s support, isolation, pressure-release, and locking precautions during repair.
