Maintenance of Pleasureboat Diesel Engine GM Series 1Safety Precaution for Inspection 1Battery Fluid Battery fluid is diluted sulfuric acid It can blind you if it gets in your eyes or burn your skin Keep the fluid away from your body Wash it off immediately with a large quantity of fresh water if you get any on you2Fire due to Electric ShortCircuits Always turn off the battery switch or detach the earth cable before inspecting the electrical system Failure to do so could cause and for Moving Parts Stop the engine before you service it If you must inspect while the engine is operating never touch moving parts Keep your body and clothing well clear of all moving parts as this could result in for Removing Hot Oil and Water to Prevent Burns If extracting oil from the engine while it is still hot do not let the oil splash on you Wait until the temperature has dropped before removing cooling water from the engine to avoid getting scalded5Burns from Contact with Hot Engine Parts The whole engine is hot during operation and immediately after stopping The turbocharger exhaust manifold exhaust pipe and engine are very hot Never touch these parts with your body or clothing6Burns from ScaldinglNever remove the filler cap of the fresh water cooler while the engine is still hot Stream and hot water will spurt out and seriously burn you Wait until the water temperature has dropped then wrap a cloth around the cap and loosen it slowly lAfter inspection refasten the filler cap firmly If the cap is not secure steam or scalding water may be emitted during operation causing burns

34 of a turn with the filter wrench 3Fill with new lube oil 1 Fill with the specified amount of engine oil 241Remove the oil inlet cap on the top of the bonnet and fill with oil 241Remove the oil dipstick and check the level of the oil with the gauge on the stick Oil should be filled to the upper mark on the dipstick gauge 241Replace the dipstick and tighten the oil inlet cap firmly by hand 2Run the engine for approximately 5 minutes and check to see if there is any oil leakage 3 Approximately 10 minutes after stopping check the oil level again with the oil dipstick and more oil if necessary Replace first after initial 50 hours Second time and thereafter every 250 hours 1 1Sj9ZYllU 424 Replacing the Marine Gear Lube Oil Replace the lube oil in the marine gear by using the procedure described above Replace first after initial 50 hours second time every 250 hours thereafter every 1000 hours 43 Cooling Water System 431Check and supply of cooling water 1Check the cooling water level in the subtank If the water level is close to the lower limit remove the sub tank cap and fill with fresh water to the upper limit 2When the water level in the subtank is low remove the filler cap for the fresh water tank and check the amount of cooling water in the fresh water tank Fill with fresh water to overflowing if the level is low 241Check the fresh water level before operation while the engine is cold Checking the water level while the engine is hot is dangerous and the cooling water reading will be misleading due to thermal expansion 241Check and supply cooling water daily at the subtank Do not remove the fresh water cooler f1iller cap regularly 241The amount of water in the sub tank will increase during operation This is normal When the engine is stopped the temperature of the cooling water will drop causing the extra water in the sub tank to return to the fresh water tank Inspection daily before starting 432Checking discharged from the seawater outlet pipe Check that sufficient cooling water is discharged from the seawater outlet pipe Operation with too little seawater discharge will burn the impeller of the seawater pump If seawater discharge is too small stop the engine immediately identify the cause and repair 241Is the Kingston cock open 241Is the inlet of the Kingston cock clogged 241Is the sea water suction hose broken or does the hose suck in air due to a loose joint 433Inspecting Inner Parts of the Seawater Pump The inside parts of the seawater pump will deteriorate with use and discharge performance falls At the specified interval or when the volume of seawater discharged is reduced inspect the seawater pump in accordance with the following procedures 1Loosen the side cover set bolt and remove the side cover 2Illuminate the inside of the seawater pump with a flashlight and inspect If any of the following problems is found disassembly and maintenance are necessary 241Impeller blades are cracked or nicked Edges or surfaces of the blades are marred or worm The impeller must be replaced periodically every 2000 hrs 241Wear plate is damaged 3If no damage is found when inspecting the inside of the pump replace the side cover Fit the Oring to the groove of the joint face before replacing the side cover If a large amount of water leaks continuously from the seawater pump during operation disassembly and maintenance replacement of the mechanical seal are necessary When disassembly and maintenance of the seawater pump are necessary consult your Yanmar dealer or distributor Inspection every 1000 hours Replace every 2000 hours 434Inspection and Replace Anticorrosive zinc seawater cooling line1Close the Kingston cock 2Drain the cooling seawater 3Remove the plug labeled ZINC and indicated in the diagram 4Check the zinc on the inside of the plug to determine the amount of wear to the anticorrosive zinc oRVpbbWCWp 241Replace the anticorrosive zinc when it has been reduced to less than 12 of its original size 241If there is only a little bit of wear clean the surface by sanding off any corroded areas 5Replace plug 6Open the Kingston cock and check water leakage Inspection every 500 hours 44 Inspection of the Electrical Parts 441 Inspection of Battery lCheck the level of fluid in the battery When the amount of fluid nears the lower limit fill with battery fluid available in the marketto the upper limit If operation continues with insufficient battery fluid the battery life is shortened and the battery may overheat and explode lBattery fluid tends to evaporate more quickly in the summer and the fluid level should be checked earlier than the specified times lIf the engine turns over at a slower than usual rate and refuses to start recharge the battery lIf the engine still will not start after charging replace the battery Inspection daily before startup 442 Checking the Tension of the VBelt of the Alternator When there is not enough tension in the Vbelt the belt will slip making it impossible for the alternator to generate power Additionally the fresh water pump will not work causing the engine to overheat Check the tension of the Vbelt in the following manner 1Press the Vbelt down with your thumb at the middle of the belt to check the tension The give in the Vbelt should measure about 8 10mm at the depression 2To adjust the Vbelt tension loosen the set bolt and move the alternator 3Replace the belt if it is damaged Inspection every 500 hours Replace every 2000 hours 443Adjusting the Remote Control Handle remote control handles and the engine control levers are connected by an accelerator cable Over time the cable becomes stretched and the connections loose causing deviation in the position which makes operation unsafe Inspect the cable periodically and adjust if necessary 1Adjusting the Governor Remote Control Handle 241Check to see that the speed lever on the engine side is touching the high speed limiting bolt when the governor handle is put in H High Speed 241Check to see that the speed lever on the engine side is touching the low speed limiting bolt when the governor handle is put in L Low Speed 241If the speed lever does not touch the limiting bolt for either the high or low speed when you check them loosen the setting screws on the fittings for the accelerator cable and adjust the position of the cable 2Adjusting the Clutch Remote Control Handle for the Marine Gear 241Check to see that the clutch lever on the engine side is in the neutral position when the remote control handle is in NEUTRAL 241 If the position of the clutch
