Check The Top Cowling; Check Cowling Sealing; Check Painted Surfaces - OXE 125 User Manual

Check the top cowling

!
Make sure that the top cowling is
securely closed and that there are
no gaps. A loose or improperly
fitted cover could allow water to
enter the engine.

Check cowling sealing

Check that the sealing is not dry,
broken or worn, as this will allow
water to enter the engine.

CAUTION
Check the fitting of the top cowling.
Reinstall if the fit is not complete.
Contact your dealer/manufacturer if
it is still loose.

Check painted surfaces

Check the outboard for scratches,
nicks, or flaking paint. Areas with
damaged paint surfaces are more
likely to corrode. Clean and paint the
areas if necessary.
