Beta Marine propulsion engines can be installed at angles
up to a maximum of 15° flywheel up or flywheel down
when static, and can be run at up to 25° when heeling.
However, if you are considering installing above 10°
please contact Beta Marine or alternatively consider the 7°
down angle gearbox.
When our engines are installed at varying angles of
inclination the normal oil level markings on the dipstick
must be disregarded and recalibrated.
To recalibrate the dipstick, first ensure all oil is drained
from the engine pre-installation and replace the oil filter,
post installation refill the engine with the correct quantity
of oil as indicated within the table on page 6 and allow
time for the oil to settle. Remove the dipstick, wipe clean
and reinsert. Carefully remove the dipstick so the engine
oil on it is not disturbed. Once removed, note the wet/dry
line then score or engrave this new correct level on it for
future use.
If in doubt please contact Beta Marine.
