The safety messages that follow haveNOTICE level hazards.
It is important to perform daily checks as
listed in the Operation Manual.Periodic maintenance preventsunexpected downtime, reduces thenumber of accidents due to poor engineperformance and helps extend the life ofthe engine.
See your authorized Yanmar Marinedealer or distributor if you need to operatethe engine at high altitudes. At highaltitudes the engine will lose power, runrough and produce exhaust gases thatexceed the design specifications.
ALWAYS be environmentallyresponsible.
Follow the guidelines of theEPA or other governmental
agencies for the proper disposal of
hazardous materials such as engine oil,diesel fuel and engine coolant. Consult thelocal authorities or reclamation facility.
NEVER dispose of hazardous materials bydumping them into a sewer, on the groundor into ground water or waterways.
If a Yanmar Marine Engine is installed at
an angle that exceeds the specificationsstated in the Yanmar Marine InstallationManuals, engine oil may enter thecombustion chamber causing excessiveengine speed, white exhaust smoke andserious engine damage. This applies toengines that run continuously or those thatrun for short periods of time.
If you have an installation with two or threeengines and only one engine is operating,the seacock of the non-running engine(s)should be closed. This will prevent waterfrom being forced past the seawater pumpand entering the engine. The result of
water entering the engine could causeengine seizure or other serious problems.
If you have an installation with two or threeengines, and only one engine is operating,please note that if the propeller shaftthru-hull (stuffing box) is lubricated byengine water pressure and the engines areinterconnected, care must be taken thatwater from the running engine does not
enter the exhaust of the non-runningengine(s). This water could cause seizureof the non-running engine(s). See yourauthorized Yanmar Marine dealer ordistributor for a complete explanation ofthis condition.
If you have an installation with two or threeengines, and only one engine is operating,it is important to limit the amount of throttle
applied to the running engine. If youobserve black smoke or movement of thethrottle does not increase engine rpm, youare overloading the engine that is running.Immediately throttle back to approximatelytwo-thirds throttle or to a setting where theengine performs normally. Failure to do somay cause the running engine to overheator cause excess carbon buildup which may
shorten the engine's life.
NEVER turn off the battery switch (ifequipped) or short the battery cablesduring operation. Damage to the electricalsystem will result.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
YANMAR YM FEATURES
AND APPLICATIONS
The YM series are four-stroke directinjection diesel engines equipped withliquid coolant systems.
The 2YM15 is a 2-cylinder engine and isnaturally aspirated.
The 3YM20 is a 3-cylinder engine and isnaturally aspirated.
The 3YM30 is a 3-cylinder engine and isnaturally aspirated.
These engines are equipped with a marinegear or sail drive unit.
These engines are designed for pleasurecraft use and complied with EPA regulationTier3 marine from 2009 year.
It is recommended that new vessels bepropped so the engines can operate at 100to 200 rpm above the Maximum RatedPower Output rpm (3700 to 3800) to allowfor some added weight and hull resistance.The engine must be able to reach theMaximum Rated Power rpm (3600) underfull load at all times.
Failure to do so can lead to reduced vesselperformance, increased smoke levels andcan cause permanent damage to yourengine, which is not covered by warranty.
The engine must be installed correctly with
coolant lines, exhaust gas lines andelectrical wiring. Any auxiliary equipmentattached to the engine should be easy touse and accessible for service. To handlethe drive equipment, propulsion systems(including the propeller) and other onboardequipment, always observe theinstructions and cautions given in theoperation manuals supplied by theshipyard and equipment manufacturers.
The YM series engines are designed to beoperated at maximum throttle (3600 rpm)for less than 5% of total engine time (30minutes out of every 10 hours) andcruising speed (3400 rpm or less) for lessthan 90% of total engine time (9 hours outof every 10 hours).
The laws of some countries may requirehull and engine inspections, depending on
the use, size and cruising area of the boat.The installation, fitting and surveying ofthis engine all require specializedknowledge and engineering skills. SeeYanmars local subsidiary in your region oryour authorized Yanmar Marine dealer ordistributor.

New Engine Break-In
As with all reciprocating engines, the waythe engine is operated during its first 50hours of operation plays a significant rolein determining how long it will last and how
well the engine will perform over itslifetime.
A new Yanmar diesel engine must beoperated at suitable speeds and powersettings during the break-in period to allowthe sliding parts, such as piston rings, tobreak in properly and to stabilize enginecombustion.
During the break-in period, the engine
coolant temperature gauge should bemonitored. The temperature should bebetween 71 and 87C (160 and 190F).
During the first 10 hours of operation, theengine should be operated at maximumrpm minus 400 to 500 rpm (approximately60 to 70% of load) most of the time. Thiswill ensure the sliding parts break inproperly.
NOTICE: During this period, avoidoperating at maximum engine speed andload to avoid damaging or scoring slidingparts.
Do not operate the engine at low idle or atlow speed and light load for more than30 minutes at a time. Since unburned fueland engine oil will adhere to the pistonrings when operating at low speeds for
long periods, this will interfere with propermovement of the rings and the diesel fuelconsumption may increase. Low idlespeed does not allow break-in of slidingparts.
If operating the engine at low speed andlight load, you must race the engine toclean the carbon from the cylinders andthe fuel injection valve.
Perform this procedure in open waters:
With the clutch in NEUTRAL, acceleratefrom the low-speed position to thehigh-speed position briefly.
Repeat this process five times.
Once past the initial 10 hours until 50hours, the engine should be used over itsfull operating range, with special emphasison running at relatively high powersettings. This is not the time for anextended cruise at idle or low speed. Theboat should be operated at maximumspeed minus 400 rpm most of the time(approximately 70% load), with a 10
minute run at maximum minus 200 rpm(approximately 80% load) every30 minutes and a 4 to 5 minute period ofoperation at WOT (wide open throttle)once every 30 minutes. During this period,be sure not to operate the engine at lowspeed and light load for more than30 minutes. If operating engine at lowspeed and light load is necessary, race theengine after low idle operation.
To complete engine break-in, performAfter Initial 50 Hoursmaintenanceprocedures on page 56.

FUNCTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS
Name of Component Function
Fuel Filter Removes dirt and water from the fuel. Drain the filter periodically. The filter
element should be replaced periodically. The water separator (if equipped)
should be drained periodically. See Draining Fuel Filter / Water Separator on
page 60.
Fuel Feed Pump Pumps fuel from the tank to the fuel injection system. Pushing the manual lever
on the side of the feed pump supplies fuel to the engine when fuel priming is
needed.
Fuel Feed Lever Moving the fuel feed lever up and down feeds the fuel. The lever is used to bleed
air from the fuel system after running out of fuel.
Engine Oil Filler Port Filler port for the engine oil.
Engine Oil Filter Filters fine metal fragments and carbon from the engine oil. Filtered engine oil is
distributed to the engines moving parts. The filter is a spin-on type and the
element should be replaced periodically. See Replacing the Engine Oil Filter
Element on page 64.Marine Gear Filler Port Filler port for marine gear oil; located on top of the marine gear case.
Cooling System There are two cooling systems: closed cooling with coolant (fresh water) and
seawater. The engine is cooled by the closed cooling circuit. The closed circuit is
cooled by seawater using a heat exchanger. The seawater also cools the
engine / marine gear oil.
Closed Cooling Circulation
Pump
The centrifugal water pump circulates coolant inside the engine. The circulating
pump is driven by a V-belt.
Seawater Pump Pumps seawater from outside vessel to the engine. The seawater pump has a
replaceable rubber impeller.
Coolant Filler Cap The filler cap on the heat exchanger / coolant tank covers the water supply port.The cap has a pressure regulating valve. When the cooling water temperature
rises, the pressure rises inside the coolant system.
Coolant Recovery Tank The pressure valve in the filler cap releases vapor and hot water overflow to the
coolant recovery tank. When the engine stops and the coolant cools, the pressure
in the coolant tank drops. The filler cap vacuum valve then opens to send coolant
back from the coolant recovery tank. This minimizes coolant consumption. The
closed cooling system coolant level can easily be checked and refilled in this
tank.
Engine Oil Cooler A heat exchanger that cools high temperature engine oil using coolant.
Intake Silencer (Air Cleaner) The intake silencer guards against dirt in the air and reduces the noise of airintake.
Nameplates Nameplates are provided on the engine and the marine gear and have the model,
serial number and other data. See Location of Nameplates on page 14.
Starter Starter motor for the engine; powered by the battery.
Alternator Driven by a belt and generates electricity and charges the battery.
Engine Oil Dipstick Gauge stick for checking the engine oil level.

Precautions and concerns regardingthe use of biofuels:
Biodiesel fuels have a higher content ofmethyl-esters, which may deterioratecertain metal, rubber and plasticcomponents of the fuel system. The
customer and / or boat builder areresponsible to verify the usage ofbiodiesel compatible components on thevessel fuel supply and return systems.
Free water in biodiesel may result inplugging of fuel filters and increasedbacterial growth.
High viscosity at low temperatures mayresult in fuel delivery problems, injectionpump seizures, and poor injection nozzlespray atomization.
Biodiesel may have adverse effects onsome elastomers (seal materials) andmay result in fuel leakage and dilution ofthe engine lubricating oil.
Even biodiesel fuels that comply with asuitable standard as delivered will
require additional care and attention tomaintain the quality of the fuel in theequipment or other fuel tanks. It isimportant to maintain a supply of clean,fresh fuel. Regular flushing of the fuelsystem, and / or fuel storage containers,may be necessary.
The use of biodiesel fuels that do notcomply with the standards as agreed toby the diesel engine manufacturers andthe diesel fuel injection equipmentmanufacturers, or biodiesel fuels thathave degraded as per the precautionsand concerns above, may affect thewarranty coverage of your engine.
Additional Technical FuelRequirements
The fuel cetane number should be 45 orhigher.
The sulfur content must not exceed 0.5%
by volume. Less than 0.05% is preferred.
NEVER mix kerosene, used engine oil orresidual fuels with the diesel fuel.
Water and sediment in the fuel shouldnot exceed 0.05% by volume.
Keep the fuel tank and fuel-handlingequipment clean at all times.
Ash content should not exceed 0.01% byvolume.
Carbon residue content should notexceed 0.35% by volume. Less than0.1% is preferred.
Total aromatics content should notexceed 35% by volume. Less than 30%is preferred.

ENGINE COOLANT
Engine Coolant Specifications
Texaco Long Life Coolant (LLC), bothstandard and premixed, product code
7997 and 7998 Havoline Extended Life
Antifreeze / Coolant, product code 7994
Note: In the U.S., LLC is required forthe warranty to be valid.
NOTICE: Following the manufacturersrecommendations, use a proper LLC whichwill not have any adverse effects on thematerials (cast iron, aluminum, copper,etc.) of the engines cooling system. SeeEngine Coolant Specifications on page 31.
ALWAYS use the mixing ratios specifiedby the antifreeze manufacturer for thetemperature range.
NOTICE: ALWAYS add LLC to soft water especially when operating in cold weather.NEVER use hard water. Water should be
clean and free from sludge or particles.Without LLC, cooling performance willdecrease due to scale and rust in thecoolant system. Water alone may freezeand form ice; it expands approximately 9%in volume. Use the proper amount ofcoolant concentrate for the ambienttemperature as specified by the LLCmanufacturer. LLC concentration shouldbe a minimum of 30% to a maximum of
60%. Too much LLC will decrease thecooling efficiency. Excessive use ofantifreeze also lowers the coolingefficiency of the engine. NEVER mixdifferent types or brands of LLC, as aharmful sludge may form. Mixing differentbrands of antifreeze may cause chemicalreactions, and may make the antifreezeuseless or cause engine problems.
Replace the engine coolant periodically,according to the maintenance section inthis Operation Manual.
Remove scale from the cooling systemperiodically by flushing the system.

ENGINE OPERATION
36 YM Series Operation Manual 2009 Yanmar Marine International
If any indicator illuminates during engineoperation, stop the engine immediately.Determine the cause and repair theproblem before continuing to operate the
engine. If the alarm window with audiblealarm fails to display and go out about 3seconds later when the ignition switch is inthe ON position, see your authorizedYanmar Marine dealer or distributor forservice before operating the engine.
Observe the following environmentaloperating conditions to maintain engineperformance and avoid premature enginewear:
Avoid operating in extremelydusty conditions.
Avoid operating in the presenceof chemical gases or fumes.
NEVER run the engine if the am-bient temperature is above +40C(+104F) or below -16C (+5F).
If the ambient temperature ex-ceeds +40C (+104F), the en-gine may overheat and cause theengine oil to break down.
If the ambient temperature is be-low -16C (+5F), rubber compo-nents such as gaskets and sealswill harden, causing prematureengine wear and damage.
Contact your authorized YanmarMarine engine dealer or distribu-tor if the engine will be operatedoutside of this standard tempera-ture range.
NEVER engage the starter motor while theengine is running. Damage to the startermotor pinion and / or ring gear will result.

position for longer than 15 seconds orthe starter motor will overheat.
After the Engine has Started
After the engine has started, check thefollowing items at a low engine speed:
1. Check that the gauges, indicators andalarm are normal.
2. Check for any water, fuel, enginecoolant or engine oil leaks. If any leaksare found, shut down the engine andperform the necessary repairs.
WARNING! Piercing Hazard. NEVERcheck for a fuel leak with your hands.ALWAYS use a piece of wood orcardboard. Have your authorizedYanmar Marine dealer or distributor
repair the damage. Avoid skin contactwith the high-pressure diesel fuelspray caused by a fuel system leaksuch as a broken fuel injection line.High-pressure fuel can penetrateyour skin and result in serious injury.If you are exposed to high-pressurefuel spray, obtain prompt medicaltreatment.
3. Check that the exhaust color, enginevibration and sound are normal.
4. When there are no problems, keep theengine at low speed with the boat stillstopped to distribute engine oil to allparts of the engine.

Check that water is being discharged fromthe seawater outlet pipe. Operation withinadequate seawater discharge willdamage the impeller of the seawaterpump. If seawater discharge is too low,stop the engine immediately. Identify the
cause and repair. NOTICE: The engine willseize if it is operated when coolingseawater discharge is inadequate or if loadis applied without any warm-up operation.
When operating the engine at low speedfor long periods of time, race the engineonce every 2 hours. Race the engine withthe clutch in NEUTRAL, accelerate fromthe low-speed position to the high-speed
position and repeat this process about fivetimes. This cleans out carbon from thecylinders and the fuel injection valves.NOTICE: Neglecting to race the engine willresult in poor exhaust color and reduceengine performance.
Periodically operate the engine nearmaximum speed while underway. This willgenerate higher exhaust temperatures,
which will help clean out hard carbondeposits, maintain engine performanceand prolong the life of the engine.
For troubleshooting assistance, seeTroubleshooting After Starting on page 69or see Troubleshooting Chart on page 71.
If necessary, see your authorized YanmarMarine dealer or distributor.

Shifting the Engine
WARNING! Sudden Movement Hazard.The boat will start to move when themarine gear is engaged:
Ensure the boat is clear of all
obstacles forward and aft. Quickly shift to the FORWARD
position then back to theNEUTRAL position.
Observe whether the boat movesin the direction you expect.
NOTICE: Shifting the marine gear whileoperating at high speed or not pushing thehandle fully into position (partial
engagement) will result in damage tomarine gear parts and abnormal wear.
Before using the marine gear, be sure tomove the throttle handle to a low idleposition (less than 1000 rpm). Move thethrottle handle slowly to a higher speedposition after completing clutchengagement.
NOTICE: NEVER shift the marine gear
at high engine speed. During normaloperation, the marine gear should onlybe shifted with the engine at idle. Whenmoving the handle between FORWARD(Figure 2, (1 or 3)) and REVERSE(Figure 2, (1 or 3)), bring the clutch toNEUTRAL (Figure 2, (2)) and pausebefore slowly shifting to the desiredposition. Do not shift abruptly fromFORWARD to REVERSE or vice versa.
NOTICE: When sailing, set the remotecontrol lever in NEUTRAL. Not doing soWILL introduce slippage or any damageand void your warranty.
SHUTTING DOWN THE
ENGINE
NOTICE: NEVER stop engine abruptlyduring operation. Yanmar recommendsthat when shutting the engine down, allow
the engine to run, without load, for 5minutes. This will allow the enginecomponents that operate at hightemperatures, such as the exhaust system,to cool slightly before the engine is shutdown.
1. Reduce engine speed to low idle andput remote control handle inNEUTRAL.
2. Accelerate from low speed to highspeed and repeat five times. This willclean out the carbon from the cylindersand the fuel injection nozzles.
3. Allow engine to run at low speed(approximately 1000 rpm) without loadfor 5 minutes. NOTICE: Continue tohold the STOP button in until theengine is completely stopped. If the
button is released before the enginehas completely stopped, it may restart.If the engine does not shut down, seeEmergency Shutdown on page 41 .

INTRODUCTION
This section of the Operation Manualdescribes the procedures for proper careand maintenance of the engine.
PRECAUTIONS
The Importance of PeriodicMaintenance
Engine deterioration and wear occur in
proportion to the length of time the enginehas been in service and the conditions theengine is subjected to during operation.Periodic maintenance preventsunexpected downtime, reduces thenumber of accidents due to poor engineperformance and helps extend the life ofthe engine.
Performing Periodic
MaintenanceWARNING! Exhaust Hazard. NEVERblock windows, vents, or other meansof ventilation if the engine is operatingin an enclosed area. All internalcombustion engines create carbonmonoxide gas during operation.Accumulation of this gas within anenclosure could cause illness or even
death. Make sure that all connectionsare tightened to specifications afterrepair is made to the exhaust system.Failure to comply could result in deathor serious injury.
The Importance of Daily Checks
The Periodic Maintenance Scheduleassumes that the daily checks areperformed on a regular basis. Make a habit
of performing daily checks before the startof each operating day. See Daily Checkson page 55.

EPA MAINTENANCE
REQUIREMENTS
To maintain optimum engine performanceand compliance with the EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA) Regulations for
Engines, it is essential to follow thePeriodic Maintenance Schedule on page50and the Periodic MaintenanceProcedures on page 55.
EPA Requirements for USA andOther Applicable Countries
The following are the requirements for theEPA. Unless these requirements are met,
the exhaust gas emissions will not bewithin the limits specified by the EPA.
The EPA emission regulation is applicableonly in the USA and other countries thathave adopted the EPA requirements inpart or in whole. Determine and follow theemission regulations in the country whereyour engine will be operating to assist youin specified compliance.
Conditions to EnsureCompliance with EPA EmissionStandards
The 2YM15, 3YM20 and 3YM30 areEPA-certified engines.
The following are the conditions that mustbe met in order to ensure that theemissions during operation meet the EPA
standards:
Ambient temperature: -20 to +40C(-4to +104F)
Relative humidity: 80% or lower
The diesel fuel should be:
ASTM D975 No. 1-D or No. 2-D, orequivalent (minimum of cetane No. 45)
The lubricating oil should be: Type API, Class CD or higher
Perform the inspections as outlined inPeriodic Maintenance Procedures on page55and keep a record of the results.
Pay particular attention to these importantpoints:
Replacing the engine oil
Replacing the engine oil filter
Replacing the fuel filter
Cleaning the intake silencer (air cleaner)
Note: Inspections are divided into twosections in accordance with who isresponsible for performing theinspection: the user or the

This connection shall be internallythreaded with standard pipe threads of asize not larger than 12.7 mm (0.5 in.), andshall be closed by a pipe plug when not inuse. Equivalent connections are allowed.
The instructions for the proper installationand location of the required sample port, inaddition to those specified above in thequoted federal regulation, are as follows:
1. The connection should be located asfar downstream as reasonablypracticable from any sharp bend (of 30or more) in the exhaust pipe to helpensure that a well-mixed exhaust flowsample may be taken;
2. The requirement that the connection belocated before any point at which theexhaust contacts water (or any othercooling/scrubbing medium) does notinclude contact with water used to coolexhaust manifolds, unless the water isallowed to come into direct contact withthe exhaust gases;
3. To allow ready access to the sample
port, the connection should be located,if possible given the constraints ofvessel design, approximately 0.6 to 1.8m (2 to 6 ft) above a deck or walkway;
4. To facilitate insertion and withdrawal ofan exhaust sample probe, there shouldbe no obstructions for at least one andone-half exhaust pipe/stack diametersperpendicular, i.e., 90, from thesample port; and
5. If a threaded connection is used, boththe internal and external threads shouldbe coated with a high-temperature,anti-seize compo
