SAFETY STATEMENTS
Yanmar is concerned for your safety and your
machines condition. Safety statements are one
of the primary ways to call your attention to the
potential hazards associated with Yanmar L-N
Series engine operation. Follow the precautions
listed throughout the manual before operation,
during operation and during periodic
maintenance procedures for your safety, the
safety of others and to protect the performance of
your engine. Keep the labels from becoming dirty
or torn and replace them if they are lost or
damaged. Also, if you need to replace a part that
has a label attached to it, make sure you order
the new part and label at the same time.
A DANGER

black letters with an orange rectangle
behind it) indicates a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.

EXHAUST HAZARD!
NEVER operate the engine in an
enclosed area such as a garage,
tunnel, underground room, manhole or
ships hold without proper ventilation.
NEVER block windows, vents, or other
means of ventilation if the engine is
operating in an enclosed area. All
internal combustion engines create
carbon monoxide gas during
operation. Accumulation of this gas
within an enclosure could cause
illness or even death.
Make sure that all connections are
tightened to specifications after repair
is made to the exhaust system.
Failure to comply could result in death
or serious injury.

EXPOSURE HAZARD!
Wear personal protective equipment
such as gloves, work shoes, eye and
hearing protection as required by the
task at hand.
NEVER wear jewelry, unbuttoned
cuffs, ties or loose fitting clothing
when you are working near
moving / rotating parts such as the
cooling fan, flywheel or PTO shaft.
ALWAYS tie long hair back when you
are working near moving / rotating
parts such as a cooling fan, flywheel,
or PTO shaft.
NEVER operate the engine while
wearing a headset to listen to music or
radio because it will be difficult to hear
the warning signals.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Functions
Air Cleaner
Dynamo (Optional)
The electric fuel pump (if equipped) makes sure there is a constant
supply of diesel fuel to the fuel injection pump. The electric fuel
pump is electro-magnetic and runs on 12 VDC.
The engine oil filter removes contaminants and sediments from the
engine oil. Periodic cleaning of the oil filter is necessary. See the
Periodic Maintenance Schedule on page 59 for the frequency of
cleaning.
Fuel Filters
Fuel Tank
The fuel tank is a reservoir that holds diesel fuel. When fuel leaves
the fuel tank it goes to the fuel injection pump. Since fuel is used to
keep fuel system components cool and lubricated, more fuel than is
necessary for combustion enters the fuel system. Any fuel that is
not used for combustion is returned to the fuel tank. The fuel tank is
a required engine component.
The engine oil cap / dipstick combines the oil cap and dipstick in
one assembly. The dipstick part of the assembly is used to
determine the amount of engine oil in the crankcase.
You can fill the crankcase with engine oil from either side of the
engine depending upon which one is most convenient.
If the engine is equipped with the electric starting option, the starter
motor is powered by the battery. When you turn the key switch in
the operators console to the START position, the starter motor
engages with the ring gear installed on the flywheel and starts the
flywheel in motion.

Recoil Starter
A recoil starter allows you to manually start an
engine by pulling on the recoil starter handle
(Figure 3, (1)). When you pull on the handle you
set the flywheel and crankshaft in motion. The
recoil starter is spring loaded so the handle and
attached cable automatically return to the recoil
starter assembly.

CAUTION
For maximum engine life, Yanmar
recommends that when shutting the
engine down, you allow the engine to
idle, without load, for 5 minutes. This
will allow the engine components that
operate at high temperatures, such as
exhaust system, to cool slightly before
the engine itself is shut down.

OFF (key straight up and down) (Figure 5, (2)) When you turn the key to this position the engine
shuts down. Electric current to the battery
indicator and other electric devices is shut off.
You can insert and remove the key in this
position.
ON (Figure 5, (3)) - This is the position the key
will be in when the engine is running. When the
engine is not running, use this position to
energize the optional devices such as indicators
or electric fuel pump.
CAUTION
Only hold the key in the START position
for 15 seconds or the starter motor will
overheat.

Inlet Air Heater
Some engines may be equipped with an inlet air
heater. Heated inlet air helps the engine to start
easier in cold weather. During the engine starting
sequence the inlet air heater is activated for
several seconds. If the engine is equipped with an
air inlet heater timer, after the heat indicator goes
out, the engine can be started.

CAUTION
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, 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 100 hours.
During the break-in period, carefully
observe the engine oil pressure and
engine temperature.
During the break-in period, check the
engine oil levels frequently.
CAUTION
For maximum engine life, Yanmar
recommends that when shutting the
engine down, you allow the engine to
idle, without load, for 5 minutes. This
will allow the engine components that
operate at high temperatures, such as
exhaust system, to cool slightly before
the engine itself is shut down.

Set Engine Speed Control to START
Several types of engine speed controls
are used in L-N engine applications. The
following procedures are for three typical
applications. Refer to the operating
instructions for the driven machine.

2. Turn the key clockwise to the START position
(Figure 13, (1)). Release the key as soon as
the engine starts. It will return to the ON
position (Figure 13, (2)).
3. If the engine fails to start:
(a) Wait until the engine comes to a complete
stop before you attempt to start it again.
Engaging the starter while the engine is
still rotating will result in damage to the
starter motor and flywheel.
(b) Wait at least 30 seconds before you
attempt to start the engine again. This
pause will allow the battery voltage to
recover to prevent damage to the starter
motor due to the low battery voltage.
CAUTION
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, and for proper

During the first hour of operation, vary
