Safety Precautions
NOTICE
New engine break-in:
• On the initial engine start-up, allow the engine to
idle for approximately 15 minutes while you check
for proper engine oil pressure, diesel fuel leaks,
engine oil leaks, coolant leaks, and for proper
operation of the indicators and/or gauges.
• During the first hour of operation, vary the engine
speed and the load on the engine. Short periods
of maximum engine speed and load are
desirable. Avoid prolonged operation at minimum
or maximum engine speeds and loads for the
next four to five hours.
• During the break-in period, carefully observe the
engine oil pressure and engine temperature.
• During the break-in period, check the engine oil
and coolant levels frequently.
NOTICE
• Never attempt to modify the engine’s design or
safety features such as defeating the engine
speed limit control or the fuel injection quantity
control.
• Failure to comply may impair the engine’s safety
and performance characteristics and shorten the
engine’s life. Any alterations to this engine may
affect the warranty coverage of your engine.

Never use high-pressure water or compressed air
at greater than 28 PSI (193 kPa; 19686 mmAq) or a
wire brush to clean the radiator fins. Radiator fins
damage easily.
NOTICE
Never attempt to adjust the low or high idle speed
limit screw. This may impair the safety and
performance of the machine and shorten its life. If
the idle speed limit screws require adjustment, see
your authorized YANMAR industrial engine dealer
or distributor.
NOTICE
The tightening torque in the Standard Torque Chart
(see General Service Information section)
should
be applied only to the bolts with a “7” head. (JIS
strength classification: 7T)
• Apply 60 % torque to bolts that are
not listed.
• Apply 80 % torque when tightened to
aluminum alloy.
NOTICE
If any indicator fails to illuminate when the key
switch is in the ON position, see your authorized
YANMAR industrial engine dealer or distributor for
service before operating the engine.
NOTICE
Establish a periodic maintenance plan according to
the engine application and make sure you perform
the required periodic maintenance at the intervals
indicated. Failure to follow these guidelines will
impair the engine’s safety and performance
characteristics, shorten the engine’s life and may
affect the warranty coverage on your engine.
