CAUTION
CONTINUED OPERATION OF AN OVERHEATED ENGINE
CAN RESULT IN ENGINE SEIZURE. IF AN UNUSUALLY HIGH
TEMPERATURE READING OCCURS, SHUT THE ENGINE OFF
IMMEDIATELY. THEN INVESTIGATE AND CORRECT THE
PROBLEM.
Oil Pressure Gauge
The oil pressure gauge monitors the engine lubri-
cation system pressure. The oil pressure indicated
when the engine is new is usually the reference
for normal oil pressure for that engine. A drop
in oil pressure is a possible indication of oil pump
problems, a leak or fuel diluted oil.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge indicates the amount of fuel in
the fuel tank. This gauge is merely a relative
indication of the available fuel supply and not a
calibrated instrument.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter displays the voltage for the battery
and the charging system. The normal voltage is
11 to 12.5 volts with the engine off, and 13 to
14.5 volts with the engine running.

Hour Meter

The hour meter keeps a record of the operating
time for the engine. The hour meter is normally
located in the tachometer.
Tilt/Trim Gauge
The tilt/trim gauge monitors the position of the
outdrive. The upper range of the gauge indicates
the tilt, which is used for trailering and shallow
water operation. The lower range indicates the
trim position. This is the range used to adjust
the hull angle while operating your boat on plane.
Please refer to Chapter 2 and the engine owner's
manual for more information on the operation of
the outdrive power tilt and trim.
Trim Tab Indicator Gauges
Monitors the position of the optional trim tabs. The
trim tabs should always be returned to the full up
position whenever the boat is moored or before
lifting the boat with a lift or loading it on a trailer.
Depth Gauge
The depth gauge indicates the depth of the wa-
ter below the bottom of the boat. The gauge is
