Let $\tau \left( n \right)$ be the Ramanujan $\text{ }\!\!\tau\!\!\text{ }$-function. We prove that for any integer $N$ with $\left| N \right|\,\ge \,2$ the diophantine equation

$$\underset{i=1}{\overset{148000}{\mathop{\sum }}}\,\,\tau \left( {{n}_{i}} \right)\,=\,N$$

has a solution in positive integers ${{n}_{1}},\,{{n}_{2}},\,.\,.\,.\,,\,{{n}_{148000}}$ satisfying the condition

$$\underset{1\le i\le 148000}{\mathop{\max }}\,{{n}_{i}}\ll |N{{|}^{2/11}}{{e}^{-c\log |N|/\log \log |N|}},$$

for some absolute constant $c\,>\,0$.
