DAILY CHECKS
All stern-drives have been submitted to a
test run before shipment.
Visual checks for leakage should be made
from time to time.
Before operating the stern-drive, make
sure it is in good operating condition. Make
sure you check the following items and
have any repairs completed before you
operate the stern-drive.
NOTICE
Anytime the boat is left in the water and
the engine is not running, the drive must
be left in the fully down position. This will
keep the anodes in the water and will keep
the exhaust pipe engaged with the exhaust
port of the drive.
Visual Checks
CAUTION
If any problem is noted during the
visual check, the necessary corrective
action should be taken before you
operate the stern-drive.
1. Check for oil leaks.
2. Check for damaged or missing parts.
3. Check for loose, missing or damaged
fasteners.
4. Check the electrical harnesses for
cracks, abrasions, and damaged or
corroded connectors.
