Dear Lehman Owner:
Welcome to the growing family of Lehman Power Marine diesel engine users. You'll be happy
to know that you havechosen an engine which is heartilyendorsed by leading boat builders
for its quality, performance, fuel economy and long life. Your engine is simple but highly
efficient. Its power, stamina and fuel economy will delight you
-
especially if you've previously
operated gasoline power.
To obtain the best performance and the longest life from any machine, it must be serviced
properly and regularly. Filters should be changed, coolant checked, oil changed at specified
times, etc. Follow the suggested schedule shown herein
-
it will add to your boating safety,
economy and enjoyment.
Perhaps the most important single recommendation I can make to the new engine owner is
"do not tinker"! If the unit is running well
-
leave
it
alone! Adjustments and repairs should be
performed only by a competent diesel mechanic who has the proper knowledge and tools.
Many times we are requested to assist an owner who has attempted his own repairs. Unless
you know what you're doing, please "hands off!
Lehman has a world-wide Service of Distributors and Dealers. Get to know your local
one through the Lehman Start Up Program and they will be on hand to help you, should you
need it.
Finally, always insist on genuine Lehman Parts. There are many examples of good boating
days ruined

parts. If you have difficulty in obtaining them, please contact Lehman.
With proper care your Lehman Power engine will provide many hours of carefree boating.
