Bleeding the Fuel System
Bleeding must be done if any fuel system
maintenance has been performed
(replacement of fuel filter, etc.) or if the
engine does not start after several attempts.

1. Check the fuel level in the fuel tank.
Refill if necessary.
2. Open the fuel cock of the fuel tank.
WARNING! ALWAYS wear safety
glasses when bleeding the fuel
system.
3. Loosen the air bleed screw
(Figure 4, (2)) 2 - 3 turns.
4. Push up and down on the priming pump
(Figure 4, (1)) to release air out of the
air bleed screw.
5. Continue pumping until a solid stream
of fuel with no air bubbles begins to
flow.
6. Tighten the air bleed screw.
ENGINE OIL
Engine (Lube) Oil Specifications
NOTICE: Using engine oil that does not
meet or exceed the following guidelines
or specifications may cause seizure of
parts, abnormal wear and shorten
engine life.
Use an engine oil that meets or exceeds the
following guidelines and classifications:
API Service Categories CD or higher
Recommended SAE Oil Viscosity: 10W30
or 15W40
Note:
1. Be sure the engine oil, engine oil
storage containers and engine oil filling
equipment are free of sediment or
water.
2. Change the engine oil after the first 50
hours of operation and then at every
125 hours thereafter.
3. Select the oil viscosity based on the
ambient temperature where the engine
is being operated. See the SAE Service
Grade Viscosity Chart (Figure 5).
4. Yanmar does not recommend the use
of engine oil “additives.”
Handling Engine Oil
1. When handling and storing engine oil,
be careful not to allow dust and water to
contaminate the oil. Clean around the
filler port before filling.
2. Do not mix lube oils of different types or
brands. Mixing may cause the chemical
characteristics of the oil to change and
lubricating performance to decrease,
reducing the engine's life.
3. Engine oil should be changed at the
specified intervals, regardless if the
engine has been operated.
