New Engine Break-in Period
The way your engine is operated during the
first 50 hours of use will play a very significant
role in determining its ultimate performance
and lifespan. The engine must be operated
at suitable speeds and power settings
during the break-in period. Refer to Yanmar
Fuelling
As part of its pre-delivery inspection your
new Dieseljet has been fully tested and
drained of fuel. When refuelling use only
Diesel fuel.

Before Use
Tube pressure will fluctuate with temperature.
Inflate tubes in sequence to 250 mB/3.6 psi,
starting at the rear valves. Failure to observe
this will compromise the sea-keeping ability
and watertight integrity of the boat. Inflation
valves are fitted with quarter-turn locks to
enable rapid deflation.
CAUTION.
Tubes must be inflated in
the correct sequence to prevent
over-inflation.
engine operator's manuals for information on
running the engine during the first 50 hours of
operation.
The break-in period is very important and
must not be neglected.
Do NOT hose around the fuel filler area as
water may enter the fuel tank.
All Yanmar engines are fitted with a
manual fuel primer/pump. This may
require pumping at first use or when
engine has not operated for extended
periods.
Set valves to shut and inflate tubes evenly,
•
starting at rear/right, rear/left, then forward
valves.
Check bilge for fuel or water contamination.
•
