8LV Series Operation Manual
LONG-TERM
STORAGE
If the engine will not be used for an extended period
of time, special measures should be taken to
protect the cooling system, fuel system and
combustion chamber from corrosion and the
exterior from rusting.
The engine can normally stand idle for up to 6
months. If it remains unused for longer than this,
please contact your authorized Yanmar Marine
dealer or distributor.
Before performing any storage procedures within
this section, review the Safety section on page 3.
In cold temperatures or before long-term storage,
be sure to drain the seawater from the cooling
system.
