Checking Drive Unit Oil

NOTE: Oil level will fluctuate during operation. Oil level should be checked with cold engine before starting.
1
Check gear lube monitor oil level; keep oil level at or near FULL line. Check for water at bottom of monitor
and/or if oil appears to be discolored, contact your Authorized MerCruiser Dealer immediately; both conditions
may indicate a water leak somewhere in the drive unit.
IMPORTANT: If more than 2 fl. oz. (59ml) of Quicksilver High Performance Gear Lube is required to fill
monitor, a seal may be leaking. Damage to drive unit may occur due to lack of lubrication. Contact your
Authorized MerCruiser Dealer for service.

POWER TRIM PUMP FLUID

Power trim pump fluid level must be checked with the drive unit in the full DOWN/IN position.
2
New trim pumps have a shipping "cap plug" in the reservoir fill neck. Ensure that this "cap plug" has been
removed. Remove and discard "cap plug" if present.
3
Remove cap and observe oil level. Level must be up to, but not over, the bottom edge of fill neck. Add Quicksil-
ver Power Trim and Steering Fluid, or use SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 motor oil if available, as necessary to bring
oil to proper level . Replace reservoir cap.
