Yanmar SV100 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Yanmar SV100 excavator cranks over fine but engine does not start or fire
Check the fuel injection pressure according to page 81 to ensure it reaches 3130 to 3270 PSI (21.6 to 22.6 MPa). Bleed air from the fuel lines and verify the tank holds sufficient fuel. Replace the fuel filter element if you suspect flow restriction.
Manual Section: Engine Troubleshooting (General)Hydraulic implement response is slow and digging power feels noticeably weak during operation p. 28
Test the system relief set pressure at P1 and P2 as outlined on page 28. Confirm the pressure measures exactly 3982 PSI (27.5 MPa). Inspect the suction filter and clean the 338 sq.in. filtration area if clogged. Top off hydraulic fluid if necessary.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System Operation TroubleshootingEngine coolant temperature gauge spikes high and engine overheats under heavy operating loads p. 182
Inspect the fan belt tension following the procedures on page 182. Adjust the new belt deflection to measure 0.276 to 0.354 in. (7 to 9 mm). Clean all dust and debris out of the radiator fins and verify the cooling system water level.
Manual Section: Machine and Engine General TroubleshootingBattery warning lamp stays illuminated on the dash panel and charging system performs poorly p. 90
Measure the battery specific gravity using a hydrometer. Verify the reading matches 1.260 for a fully charged unit as specified on page 90. Inspect the alternator connections and check the fan belt for proper tension to ensure adequate power generation.
