Check For Fuel Leakage
A
DANGER
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD!
• Diesel fuel is extremely flammable and
explosive under certain conditions.
• Before you operate the engine, check
for fuel leaks. Replace rubberized fuel
hoses every two years or every 2000
hours of engine operation, whichever
comes first, even if the engine has
been out of service. Rubberized fuel
lines tend to dry out and become
brittle after two years or 2000 hours of
engine operation, whichever comes
first.
• Failure to comply will result in death or
serious injury.

CAUTION
• Only use diesel fuels recommended by
Yanmar for the best engine
performance, to prevent engine
damage.
• Only use clean diesel fuel.
• NEVER remove inlet fuel screen from
the filler port. If removed, dirt and
debris could get into the fuel system
causing it to clog.

A
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD!
• Avoid skin contact with the high
pressure diesel fuel spray caused by a
fuel system leak such as a broken fuel
injection line. High pressure fuel can
penetrate your skin and result in
serious injury. If you are exposed to
high pressure fuel spray, obtain
prompt medical treatment.
• NEVER check for a fuel leak with your
hands. ALWAYS use a piece of wood
or cardboard. Have your authorized
Yanmar industrial engine dealer or
distributor repair the damage.
• Failure to comply could result in death
or serious injury.

A
WARNING
BURN HAZARD!
• Keep your hands and other body parts
away from hot engine surfaces such
as the muffler, exhaust pipe,
turbocharger (if equipped) and engine
block during operation and shortly
after you shut the engine down. These
surfaces are extremely hot while the
engine is operating and could
seriously burn you.
• Failure to comply could result in death
or serious injury.
