OPERATION
Pre-Operation Inspection
Oil Check
Refer to the specifications section or to page 76 for oil
recommendations.
NOTE:
Check the oil level when the engine is warm.
To get an accurate oil level reading, the
watercraft should not be in the water and you
should not flush the freshwater cooling
system during the procedure. Always check
the oil level with the watercraft in a level
position.
1. If the engine is cold, start the engine and allow it
to idle for at least 30 seconds but no more than 60
seconds.
2. Stop the engine and pull off the lanyard.
3. The oil fill/dipstick is located under the seat in the
engine compartment. Remove the dipstick and
wipe it clean with a dry cloth.
4. Reinsert the dipstick, but do not
screw the cap onto the reservoir.
Remove the dipstick and read the
oil level.
CAUTION
An overfull oil reservoir may
cause serious engine damage.
Never allow the oil level to meet
or exceed the OVERFILLED mark
near the top of the dipstick.
Always maintain the oil level
between the MIN and MAX marks.
5. Add the recommended oil to the oil reservoir as
needed. Wipe up any spills immediately.
6. Reinstall the dipstick and tighten the cap to the
reservoir.
7. Reinstall the lanyard and start the engine. Allow it
to idle for at least 30 seconds but no more than 60
seconds.
8. Stop the engine and recheck the oil to ensure the
level is between the MIN and MAX marks.
