Affected vehicles

Yanmar YT463 2015–2016 Yanmar YT470 2015–2016

Hazard

Some units were forcibly assembled with the exhaust pipe mounting holes of the exhaust pipe stay that fixes the exhaust pipe to the engine misaligned with the exhaust pipe bracket mounting holes. As a result, engine vibration causes the exhaust pipe to deflect, subjecting the stay mounting section and exhaust pipe bracket mounting section to excessive stress and damage. In the worst case, cracks may develop in the exhaust pipe, causing exhaust gas leakage.

排気管をエンジンに固定する排気管ステーの取付穴が排気管ブラケット取付穴と合わない状態で無理に組み付けたものがある。そのため、エンジンの振動で排気管が振れてステー取付部および、排気管ブラケット取付部が過大な応力を受け損傷し、最悪の場合、排気管に亀裂が生じて排気ガスが漏れるおそれがある。

Remedy

Replace the exhaust pipe stay with a corrective part on all vehicles. Inspect the exhaust pipe and replace it with a good part if damage is found.
