Oil Injection System - Polaris SLT780 1996 Owner's Safety And Maintenance Manual

0 1 1 , INJECTION SYSTEM
Oil: Use only Polaris Watercraft
TC-W3Oil, Polaris Injection Oil, (red) or
NMMA Certified TC-W3 Oil.
The oil tank is located under the seat,
toward the front. Check the oil level ev-
ery time you go boating and add oil as
necessary. Do this with the engine off
and the lanyard lock plate removed
from the engine stop switch.
To check the oil, first make sure the wa-
tercraft is level. Remove the oil tank
cap and look at the oil level, or remove
storage bucket and check oil level. Add
recommended oil as necessary. Do not
overfill. Wipe up any oil spillage im-
mediately. Visually inspect the oil for
water or foreign matter. If either is pres-
ent change the oil.
Oil Fill Cap
The SLT780 is equipped with an oil level gauge on the multi-function meter. The
gauge will flash "OIL" and a red light if low.
The use of unrecommended oil could result in engine damage or poor perfor-
mance. It will also void your warranty.
If the engine is run without oil, severe engine damage will occur. If you discover
an empty oil tank, have the watercraft serviced immediately by an authorized Po-
laris dealer.
Always tighten cap securely to prevent water from contaminating oil. Severe en-
gine damage will occur if water becomes mixed into the oil.
