1. FOR SAFE OPERATION 1
1. FOR SAFE OPERATION
Following the precautions described in this manual will enable you to use this engine with
complete satisfaction. Failure to observe any of the rules and precautions, however, may
result in injury, burns, fires, and engine damage. Read this manual carefully and be sure
you fully understand it before beginning operation.
1.1 Warning Symbols
These are the warning signs which are used in this manual and on the products.
Pay special attention to them.
DANGER- Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, WILL result in death or serious injury.
WARNING- Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, COULD result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION- Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also
be used to alert against unsafe practices.
• The descriptions captioned by NOTICE are for the particularly important cautions for han-
dling. If you ignore them, the performance of your machine may deteriorate leading to
trouble.

2 1. FOR SAFE OPERATION
1.2 Safety Precautions
(Observe these instructions for your own safety.)
Precautions for Operation
Burns from Scalding
• Never remove the filler cap of the fresh water cooler while the engine is still
hot. Steam 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.
• After inspection, refasten the filler cap firmly. If the cap is not secure, steam
or scalding water may be emitted during operation causing burns.
Proper Ventilation of the Battery Area
• Be sure the area around the battery is well-ventilated and there is nothing
which could start a fire. During operation and charging, hydrogen gas is
emitted from the battery and can be easily ignited.
Fires from Oil lgnition
• Be sure to use the correct type of fuel when refueling.
Mistakenly filling with gasoline or the like will result in ignition.
• Be sure to stop the engine before refueling.
If you spill fuel, wipe such spillage carefully.
• Never place oils or other flammable material close to the engine as this
could result in ignition.
Exhaust Gas Poisoning
• Be sure to establish good ventilation in the engine room with windows,
vents, or other ventilation equipment. Check again during operation to be
sure that ventilation is good. Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon mon-
oxide and should not be inhaled.
Moving Parts
• Do not touch the moving parts of the engine (propeller shaft, V-belt, PTO-
pulley, etc.) during operation or let your clothing get caught in them as this
can result in injury.
• Never operate the engine without the covers on the moving parts.
• Check before starting the engine to see that any tools or cloths used in
maintenance have been removed from the area.
Burns 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 clothing.

1. FOR SAFE OPERATION 3
Alcohol
• Never operate the engine while you are under the influence of alcohol or
when you are ill or feel unwell as this results in accidents.
Safety Precautions for Inspection
Battery 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 immedi-
ately with a large quantity of fresh water if you get any on you.
Fire due to Electric Short-Circuits
• Always turn off the battery switch or detach the earth cable (-) before
inspecting the electrical system. Failure to do so could cause short-circuit-
ing and fires.
Precautions for Moving Parts
• Stoop 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 injury.
Precautions 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 scalded.
NOTICE:
Do not alter the diesel engine.
Rebuilding the engine or altering parts to increase the speed or the amount of fuel dis-
charged, etc. will make operation unsafe, and result in damage and shortening of engine
life.
NOTICE:
Disposal of waste materials
• Put oil or liquids to be disposed in a container. Never dispose of waste oil or other fluids
outside, in a sewer, river, or the sea.
• Treat waste materials safely observing all regulations and laws. Ask a waste recovery
company to collect and dispose of it.

2. PRODUCT EXPLANATION
2.1 Use & Driving System
This is light, compact diesel elngine for use in pleasure boats. The engine is equipped with a turbocharger
and intercooler which insures maximum output while preserving lightness and compact size. (The 4JH3-TE /-
TCE are equipped with the turbocharger only.)
Power output for this group of engines increases progressively from 4JH3-TE(4JH3-TCE), 4JH3-THE to
4JH3-DTE.
In case of engine with marine gear. connect the propeller shaft to the marine gear output shaft. The 4JH3-
TCE is with drive SD40-4T. For the sail drive, please refer to its operation manual.
The different types of applicable marine gears for each engine are shown below.
The installation, fitting and surveying of this engine all require specialized knowledge and engineering skills.
Additionally, boat and engine inspection may be required by the laws of some countries. Consult Yanmar’s
local subsidiary in your region or your distributor or dealer.
In order to get full performance from your engine, it is imperative that the size and structure of the boat be
suited to the engine. It is equally important to use the correct driving device and a propeller of the appropriate
size and specifications.
The engine must be installed correctly with safe cooling water and exhaust piping and electrical wiring. The
PTO work should be easy to use for onboard equipment.
Consult your Yanmar dealer or distributor when selecting optional parts. Optional parts selections should take
into account operational and surrounding conditions.
This Operation Manual explains the basic points for standard operation. Variations are explained under the
specially marked sections.

2.4 Major Servicing Parts
Name of part Function
Fuel filter Removes dust and water from fuel. The filter is a cartridge type, and the inner element
should be replaced before clogging occurs.
A water separator is on the bottom of the filter and should be drained periodically.
Fuel priming pump This is a manual fuel pump. Moving the knob on the top of the fuel filter feeds the fuel.
The pump is also used to bleed air from the fuel system.
Fuel feed pump This is a mechanical pump used to feed fuel to the fuel injection pump.
It is built into the fuel injection pump.
Filler port (engine oil) Filler port for engine lube oil.
Filler port (marine gear oil) Filler port for marine gear lube oil. Located on the top of the marine gear case.
Dipstick (engine oil) Gauge stick for determining the level of the engine oil.
Lube oil filter Filters fine metal fragments and carbon from the lube oil. The filter is a cartridge type,
and the inner element should be replaced before clogging occurs.
[Cooling Water System ]This engine is cooled by 2 cooling systems:fresh water and seawater.
Fresh water cooler
(Built-in fresh water tank)
The tank stores the fresh cooling water and is built into the fresh water cooler.
Cooling seawater passes through the fresh water cooler to cool the fresh water by heat
exchange.
Cooling water pump Located on top of the fresh water tank the filler cap closes the filler port.
It has two pressure regulating valves (pressure valve and vacume valve).
Filler cap
When the cooling water temperature rises, the pressure inside the fresh water tank
increases causing the pressure valve in the filler cap to open.
Hot water and steam pass through a rubber hose to the subtank to condense the hot water.
(The filler port and the subtank are connected by a rubber hose.)
Subtank
When the load is reduced and the cooling water temperature falls, the pressure in the fresh
water tank is lowered, and this activates the vacume valve in the filler cap causing the cool
water in the subtank to return to the fresh water tank.
This process reduces the consumption of cooling water.
Oil cooler (engine oil) This heat exchanger cools the engine oil with seawater.
Oil cooler (marine gear oil) This heat exchanger cools high temp. marine gear oil with seawater.(KBW21,KMH4A)
Turbocharger With the pressurized intake air feeding device the exhaust gas turbine is rotated by
exhaust gas, and the power is used to rotate the blower
This pressurizes the intake air for sending to the cylinder gives high power output.
Intercooler This heat exchanger cools the pressurized intake air from the turbocharger with seawater
and increases the intake air guantity.
Starter motor This is a DC motor for electrical starting. Electric current causes the pinion gear to engage
with the ring gear on the flywheel to start the engine.
Alternator This is a AC generator built in the rectifier and regulator which rotates by V-belt drive to
charge the battery during operation.

(1) Meters
The following meters are located in the upper center part of the instrument panel.
♦B/C and New B/C type panels use analog electric systems and have a pointer indicator.
Turn the panel light switch (illumination switch) ON for easy viewing.
• Tachometer
The engine speed is indicated. Engine speed can be monitored.
• Hour meter
The number of hours of operation is indicated, and can be used as a guide for periodic maintenance checks.
• Cooling Water Temperature Meter (C, New C)
The cooling water temperature is indicated. Enables monitoring of the cooling condition of the engine.
• Lube Oil Pressure Meter (C, New C)
The engine oil pressure is indicated.
Enables monitoring of the condition of the engine’s lube oil.
(2) Alarm Devices
When there is some problem during operation, the alarm buzzers and lamps will come on.
• Alarm buzzers
When the various alarm lamps come on, the alarm buzzers will come on at the same time and continue to
sound. However, no alarm buzzer will sound when the charge lamp comes on.
• Buzzer stop switch
When the buzzer sound is no longer necessary, it can be turned off with the Buzzer stop switch.
• Alarm lamps
The alarm monitor window indicates the trouble spot when one of the symbols shown below lights up.
When operation is normal the alarm lights are off; however, should some problem arise, the sensors will pick
it up and cause the light behind the appropriate symbol to come on.
1. BATTERY CHARGE
When the charge is abnormal, the lamp will come on. When charging begins the lamp will
go off. (Alarm buzzer will not sound when the lamp comes on.)
2. C.WATER TEMP
When the temperature of the cooling fresh water exceeds the maximum (95 degree C or
higher), the lamp will light. Continuing operation at temperatures exceeding the maximum
will result in damage and seizure. Check the load and the cooling system for any abnormal-
ities.
3. LUB.OIL PRESS.
When the lube oil pressure falls below specified oil pressure sensor will detect this and the
lamp will come on. Continuing operation with insufficient oil will result in damage and sei-
zure. Check the oil level.
4. FUEL FILTER (New C)
When the drain inside the water separator in the fuel filter becomes excessive, the sensor
will cause the lamp to come on. Clean out the drain in the water separator. If operation is
continued without cleaning, it will become impossible to feed fuel to the engine or damage
and seizure of the fuel injection pump will result.
5. SAIL DRIVE LEAK (New C, New B(optional))
When the seal rubber attached between sail-drive and hull is damaged and sea water leaks
into between the seal rubbers, the lamp comes on. If this hapenes, stop the engine and
quickly return to the nearest port under sail for repairs.
6. FUEL EMPTY (New B, New C(optional))
When the amount of fuel in the tank is insufficient, the sensor will activate the lamp. Fill with
fuel.

14 2. PRODUCT EXPLANATION

devices.
START is the position for starting.
When the starter motor turns, the engine
starts.
The key returns automatically to the ON posi-
tion when you remove your hand.
GLOW is the position for turning on the air heater. The air heater (OPTION) aids starting during cold con-
ditions by warming up the intake air before starting.
Note:Neutral Safety Switch OPTION for KM4A KMH4A
The engine can only be started when the clutch is in Neutral. If an attempt is made to start the engine in
any other position, the neutral safety switch will operate to make starting impossible.

16 2. PRODUCT EXPLANATION
Operation of the handle is as follows:
• Starting and stopping
Put the handle in NEUTRAL.
This puts the clutch in the cut-off position (stop) and idles the engine at a low speed.
• Forward
Move the handle from NEUTRAL to ∆FWD(forward).
This engages the clutch in forward and simultaneously increases the engine speed.
Pushing the handle further in the same direction increases engine speed to full speed.
• Reverse
Move the handle from NEUTRAL to ∇REV(reverse).
This engages the clutch in reverse and simultaneously increases the engine speed.
Pushing the handle further in the same direction increases engine speed to full speed.
• Free throttle operation
When the boat is stopped (clutch is in neutral position), the idling speed of the engine can be increased in
the following manner.
1. Leave the handle lever in NEUTRAL.
2. Disengage the clutch.
MT-3:Pull out the handle lever all the way.
MV: Pull out the free throttle button next to the
handle lever.
3. With the lever or button pulled out, move the handle
lever in either the forward or reverse direction to
increase idling speed.
• Returning to normal operation from free throttle opera-
tion.
