2. Free water in FAME may result in plugging of fuel filters

and increased bacterial growth.

3. High viscosity at low temperatures may result in fuel

delivery problems, injection pump seizures, and poor

injection nozzle spray atomization.

4. FAME may have adverse effect on some elastomers (seal

materials) and may result in fuel leakage and dilution of

the engine lubricating oil.

5. Even bio-diesel fuels that comply with a suitable standard

as delivered, will require additional care and attention to

maintain the quality of the fuel in the equipment or other

fuel tanks. It is important to maintain a supply of clean,

fresh fuel. Regular flushing of the fuel system, and/or

fuel storage containers, may be necessary.

6. The use of bio-diesel fuels that do not comply with

the standards as agreed to by the diesel engine

manufacturers and the diesel fuel injection equipment

manufacturers, or bio-diesel fuels that have degraded

as per the precautions and concerns above may affect

the warranty coverage of your engine.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

WARNING: SHOULD ONLY BE DONE BY AN

AUTHORIZED DEALER.

HIGH ALTITUDE

Observe the following environmental operating conditions

to maintain engine performance and avoid premature

engine wear:

• Never run the engine if the ambient temperature is

above +104ºF (+40ºC) or below +14ºF (-10ºC).

• If the ambient temperature exceeds +104ºF (+40ºC)

the engine may overheat and cause the engine oil to

break down.

• If the ambient temperature falls below +14ºF (-

10ºC) rubber components such as gaskets and

seals will harden causing premature engine wear

and damage.

• Contact your authorized Yanmar industrial engine

dealer or distributor if the engine will be operated in

either temperature extreme.

• Contact your authorized Yanmar industrial engine

dealer or distributor if you need to operate the en

gine at high altitudes. At high altitudes the engine

will lose power, run rough, and produce exhaust

gases that exceed the design specifications.
