PIERCING HAZARD
• Avoid skin contact with
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.
Contact your authorized Yanmar Marine
dealer or distributor repair the damage.
BURN HAZARD
• Some of the engine surfaces
become very hot during operation
and shortly after shut-down. Keep
hands and other body parts away
from hot engine surfaces.
SUDDEN MOVEMENT HAZARD
• Always stop the engine before beginning
service.
• Be sure the boat is in open water away from
other boats, docks or other obstructions
before increasing rpm. Avoid unexpected
equipment movement. Shift the marine gear

engine is at idle.
• To prevent accidental equipment movement,
Never start the engine in gear.
EXHAUST HAZARD
• Never block windows, vents or
other means of ventilation if the

enclosed area. All internal
combustion engines create
carbon monoxide gas during
operation and special precautions
are required to avoid carbon
monoxide poisoning.
• Always ensure that all connections are
tightened to specifications after repair is
made to the exhaust system. All internal
combustion engines create carbon monoxide
gas during operation and special precautions
are required to avoid carbon monoxide
poisoning.

equipped) or disconnect the negative battery
cable and the leads to the alternator when
welding on the equipment.
• Remove the engine control unit multi-pin
connector. Connect the weld clamp to the
component to be welded and as close as
possible to the welding point.
• Never connect the weld clamp to the engine
or in a manner which would allow current to
pass through a mounting bracket.
• When welding is completed, reconnect the
alternator and engine control unit prior to
reconnecting the batteries.
SHOCK HAZARD
• Always turn off the battery switch
(if equipped) or disconnect the
negative battery cable before
servicing the equipment.

terminals clean. Check the electrical
harnesses for cracks, abrasions, and
damaged or corroded connectors.
