HOT. ALLOW THESE TO COOL BEFORE PROCEED-
ING.
Remove the lock nut, end cap and diffuser discs and
clean off the carbon deposits.
Clean Every three months or 100 hours operation
(or earlier if dirty)

CAUTION
•A clogged spark arrester hinders the flow of
exhaust gas. This reduces engine output, in-
creases fuel consumption and makes starting
difficult.
• Make sure you clean your spark arrester regu-
larly.
Note: Spark arrester is an optional part.
TIGHTEN CYLINDER HEAD BOLTS
Tightening the cylinder head bolts requires a special
tool. Don’t try it yourself. Consult your Yanmar dealer.
CHECKING THE INJECTION NOZZLE, INJECTION
PUMP, ETC.
• Adjusting the valve head clearance for the intake
and exhaust valves.
• Lapping of intake and exhaust valves.
• Replacing piston ring.
All these require special tools and skills, so consult your
Yanmar dealer.
DO NOT PERFORM THE INJECTION NOZZLE TEST
NEAR AN OPEN FIRE OR ANY OTHER KIND OF
FIRE. THE FUEL SPRAY MAY IGNITE. DO NOT EX-
POSE BARE SKIN TO THE FUEL SPRAY. THE FUEL
MAY PENETRATE THE SKIN AND CAUSE INJURY
TO THE BODY. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR BODY AWAY
FROM THE NOZZLE.
CHECKING AND REPLENISHING BATTERY FLUID
AND CHARGING THE BATTERY (MODEL 4W315A
ONLY)
The L-engine uses the 12V battery. Batter fluid will be
lost through continuous charging and discharging.
• The battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid.
Protect your eyes, skin, and clothing. In case of
contact, flush thoroughly with water and get
prompt medical attention, especially if your eyes
are affected.
• Batteries generate hydrogen gas, which can be
highly explosive. Do not smoke or allow flames or
sparks near the battery, especially during charg-
ing.
Note: Much more fluid is lost during summer than in
winter.
Before starting, check for physical damage to the bat-
tery and also the electrolyte levels, and replenish with
distilled water up to the upper mark if necessary. When
actual damage is discovered, replace the battery.
Battery fluid check Monthly
• Before charging, remove the cap from each cell
of the battery.
• Charge the battery in a place where there is plenty
of ventilation.
• Discontinue charging if the electrolyte tempera-
ture exceeds 45° C (117° F).
• Do not charge the battery with the battery cable
still connected. The diodes will be damaged by
the high voltage.
• Connect the (+) lead of the charger to the (+)
terminal of the battery, and the (–) lead to the (–)
terminal. Reversed polarity will damage the
charger rectifier or the battery.
