OIL TANK

Recommended oil:
SAE 10W-30
API SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL

of oil at the factory.
Checking steps:
CAUTION:
• When checking the engine oil level on
water, be careful of other watercraft,
boats, swimmers, or obstacles. The
water current or wind can cause the
watercraft to move and lead to a colli-
sion.
• When checking the engine oil level on
land, supply water to the cooling water
passages.
• Make sure that engine has enough oil
but do not overfill. If there is too little
oil, the engine can be damaged. If there
is too much oil, the air filter can
become saturated with oil, perma-
nently damaging the filter and reduc-
ing engine performance. Follow the
checking procedure carefully.
• Make sure that debris or water does
not enter the oil tank filler hole. Debris
or water in the engine oil can cause
serious engine damage.
