Engine Oil Change - Honda Marine BF8A Owner's Manual

ENGINE OIL CHANGE

An engine oil evacuation device may be used to remove the engine oil.
Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and
completely.
1. Move the engine cover lock lever (p. 48) down to unlock the cover, and
remove the cover.
2. Place a suitable container below the engine oil drain location to catch the
used oil, then remove the oil filler cap and the drain screw.
3. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain screw with a
new sealing washer, and tighten it securely.
NOTICE
Improper disposal of engine oil can be harmful to the environment. If you
change your own oil, please dispose of the used oil properly. Put it in a
sealed container, and take it to a recycling center. Do not discard it in a trash
bin, dump it on the ground or pour it down a drain.
4. With the outboard motor in a vertical position, fill to the upper limit mark on
the dipstick (p. 48) with the recommended oil (p. 50).
5. Install the oil filler cap and tighten it securely.
6. Install the engine cover, and lock it by moving the lever up.
