PERIODIC MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Daily and periodic maintenance is important to keep the engine in good operating condition.
The following is a summary of maintenance items by periodic maintenance intervals. Periodic
maintenance intervals vary depending on engine application, loads, diesel fuel and engine
oil used and are hard to establish definitively. The following should be treated only as a
general guideline. CAUTION! Establish a periodic maintenance plan according to the
engine application and make sure you perform the required periodic maintenance
at intervals indicated. Failure to follow these guidelines will impair the engine's
safety and performance characteristics, shorten the engine's life and may affect the
warranty coverage on your engine. See your authorized Yanmar Marine dealer or
distributor for assistance when checking items marked with a ●.
