I don't know this specific engine but does it have a priming hand pump? if so, get a friend to pump that like crazy while you turn it over... Might just be air in the system....????

How much fuel in tank? Less than about 1/4 tank?

undo fuel filter and fill it with diesel, then try cranking it,
sounds like a fuel pump in tank problem to me!!
