Abstract: An apparatus for adjusting the delivery quantity on multi-cylinder fuel injection pumps including a drive unit and a clamping means for the injection pump in the form of an in-line pump. The pump pistons are provided with at least one control edge and are axially arranged and rotatably guided in cylinder barrels. Each piston is held in its fitting position, at least indirectly, by a flange. A mechanically activatable adjusting tool is mounted in the apparatus and operatively arranged to be driven via a control gear. The tool is force lockingly connected to an application point or engagement point on the securing flange of the injection pump or to a transmission element coupled to the securing flange or the cylinder barrel. A servo motor, preferably a stepping motor, is used to drive a control gear which effects movement of the tool.
