CAUTION
PCM Engines uses marine transmissions supplied
by several manufacturers. The maintenance
requirements can be different between these
manufacturers. It is important that you refer to
the operation and maintenance manual supplied by
the transmission manufacturer before you attempt
to perform maintenance on your own. If no
maintenance manual is available, PCM Engines
recommends that you contact your dealer service
department for any required maintenance or service
instructions.
PCM Transmissions
1. Engine must be running at operating
temperature.
2. Shift at least once into forward, once in reverse,
then back to neutral.
3. With the engine running, and the prop shaft not
turning, install the dipstick in all the way.
4. Remove the dipstick and check the fl uid level.
The dipstick should read FULL.
5. If the fl uid level is low, add in small increments
until the FULL mark is reached.
6. It is normal, after the engine is turned OFF, for
the level to read above the FULL mark.

clean cloth. Re-insert the dipstick to the threads
(do not screw the dipstick in) and remove the
dipstick. Observe the fl uid level.
