DAILY CHECKS
Before starting for the day, make sure the
Yanmar engine is in good operating
condition.
CAUTION
It is important to perform daily checks
as listed in this Operation Manual.
Periodic maintenance prevents
unexpected downtime, reduces the
number of accidents due to poor engine
performance and helps extend the life
of the engine.
Make sure you check the following items:
Visual Checks
1. Check for engine oil leaks.
2. Check for fuel leaks.
WARNING
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 Marine dealer or
distributor repair the damage.
3. Check for engine seawater leaks.
4. Check for damaged or missing parts.
5. Check for loose, missing or damaged
fasteners.
6. Check the electrical harnesses for
cracks, abrasions, and damaged or
corroded connectors.
7. Check hoses for cracks, abrasions, and
damaged, loose or corroded clamps.
8. Check the fuel filter / water separator
for water and contaminants. If you find
any water or contaminants, drain the
fuel filter / water separator. See
Draining the Fuel Filter / Water
Separator on page 54. If you have to
drain the fuel filter / water separator
frequently, drain the fuel tank and
check for water in your fuel supply. See
Draining the Fuel Tank on page 53.
CAUTION
If any problem is noted during the
visual check, the necessary corrective
action should be taken before you
operate the engine.
Checking Diesel Fuel and Engine
Oil
Follow the procedures in Filling the Fuel
Tank on page 28 and Checking the Engine
Oil on page 30 to check these levels.
Checking and Refilling Marine
Gear Oil
Checking Marine Gear Oil on page 32 .
