Check Before Starting

Take into account the working conditions
from health and safety point of view.
• Fuel (Check the engine maintenance manual.) Use No.
2 Diesel Fuel for normal conditions. Fill tank at FUEL
TANK FILL (5E) location.
• Check that the engine oil level is correct. Because the
engine often operates at an angle, check the oil level
(with engine horizontal) frequently to ensure that the oil
level never falls below the lower mark on the ENGINE
OIL DIPSTICK (5B). SAE 15W40 CF, CF-4, CG-4, or
CI-4 engine oil is recommended.
• For start up, refer to the Yanmar engine manual.
