Manual Organization and Shop Value
This TM1771 technical manual serves as the primary factory reference for the diesel-powered 355D model equipped with the Yanmar 2V78 engine. It cuts down diagnostic time in the shop by grouping information logically into dedicated sections for the engine, electrical, power train, steering, brakes, and hydraulic systems. Instead of guessing, technicians get direct access to theory of operation, diagnostic charts, and strict maintenance data. Working on heavy-duty mowers involves high-pressure hydraulics and complex electrical circuits, so always verify system capacities and factory safety baselines provided here before beginning major teardowns. Having this documentation as an instant download means you can pull up the specs on your laptop or tablet right next to the tractor without waiting for shipping.
Engine and Technical Specifications
Expect comprehensive technical data for the Yanmar 2V78 diesel engine and its associated components. For example, the diagnostic section lists exact engine compression at 3040 ± 196 kPa (441 ± 28 psi). You will also find cooling system capacities (3.6 liters), precise cylinder head bolt torque values (48–51 Nm / 35–37 lb-ft), and fluid requirements for diesel grades and lubricant viscosity. The wiring schematics cover both Domestic and Export variants, mapping out the electrical interlock and charging systems accurately. Covering the 085001 and up serial number range, this manual gives do-it-yourselfers and professional mechanics the exact tolerances needed for a proper, factory-standard rebuild.
