Periodic Maintenance Procedures
NOTICE
For maximum engine life, YANMAR recommends
that when shutting the engine down, you allow the
engine to idle, without load, for five minutes. This
will allow the engine components that operate at
high temperatures, such as the turbocharger (if
equipped) and exhaust system, to cool slightly
before the engine itself is shut down.
Replace the fuel filter at specified intervals to
prevent contaminants from adversely affecting the
diesel fuel flow.
1. Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
2. Close the fuel cock of the fuel filter/water
separator.
3. Remove the fuel filter with a filter wrench,
turning it to the left
(Figure 5-13, (1))
. When
removing the fuel filter, carefully hold it to
prevent the fuel from spilling. Wipe up all spilled
fuel.
Figure 5-13
4. Clean the filter mounting surface and apply a
small amount of diesel fuel to the gasket of the
new fuel filter.
5. Install the new fuel filter. Turn to the right
and hand-tighten it only until
it comes in contact with the mounting surface.
Tighten to 14 - 17 ft·lb (19.6 - 23.5 N·m; 2.0 -
2.4 kgf·m) or one additional turn using the filter
wrench.
* Consult the operation manual for the driven
machine for applicability of the dust proof filter.
6. Open the fuel cock of the fuel filter/water
separator.
7. Prime the fuel system.
8. Check for leaks.

DANGER
Fire and Explosion Hazard!
• Diesel fuel is flammable and
explosive under certain
conditions.
• Never use diesel fuel as a cleaning agent.
• When you remove any fuel system component
to perform maintenance (such as changing
the fuel filter) place an approved container
under the opening to catch the fuel.
• Never use a shop rag to catch the fuel. Vapors
from the rag are flammable and explosive.
• Wipe up any spills immediately.
• Wear eye protection. The fuel system is under
pressure and fuel could spray out when you
remove any fuel system component.
• Failure to comply will result in death or
serious injury.
