Engine Oil Capacity (Typical)
Note: These are the engine oil capacities
associated with a “deep standard” oil pan.
The oil capacity will vary dependant upon
which optional oil pan is used. Refer to the
operation manual provided by the driven
machine manufacturer for the actual engine
oil capacity of your machine.
The following are the engine oil capacities for
various YANMAR TNV engines.
CAUTION
To refuel the engine oil, refuel slowly after
removing the dipstick and both caps. If you
refuel rapidly, the oil intrusion to the intake
occurs through the PCV valve of the valve
cover. It will result in an oil hammer at engine
start, which may cause damage to the engine.
