Changing Oil and Filter

Refer to the Maintenance schedule for the change interval. Engine oil should be changed

before placing the boat in storage.
IMPORTANT: Change engine oil when the engine is warm from operation. Warm oil flows

more freely, carrying away more impurities. Use only recommended engine oil (refer to

Specifications).
