Check fluid only with engine OFF and boat floating level, or level on trailer. The
transmission dipstick is located on the top of the transmission. Dipsticks may be marked
“FULL” or “H” (high) and “ADD” or “L” (low); maintain fluid level between the two
marks.
Check level immediately after turning engine off.
Transmission fluid may be hot. Be careful not to burn
yourself.
