Quick Oil Drain System

The quick oil drain hose was attached to the engine oil pan at the factory. However, some minor assembly is still
needed before you can use this system.
How to install the quick oil drain system:
1. Unscrew the factory installed
bilge plug from the bilge drain
(A). Keep the factory bilge plug
on the boat as a spare.
2. Unclip the quick oil drain assem-
bly from the wire loop (B) on the
engine.
3. Un-clip the draw cord section
(C) from the draw cord
section (D).
4. Thread the draw cord section
(D), the oil drain plug (E), and
the oil drain hose (F) through the
bilge drain (A).
5. Adjust the hose stop clamp (G)
so that no more than 12 inches
of hose, including the oil drain
plug, can extend out of the
bilge drain (A).
6. Re-clip the draw cord section (C)
to the draw cord section (D).
7. Push the oil drain hose, oil drain
plug, and both sections of the
draw cords through the bilge
drain and into the bilge area.
8. Screw the oil drain bilge plug
(H) into the bilge drain (A) and
tighten firmly.
To drain the engine oil:
1. Remove the boat from the water.
2. Unscrew the bilge plug.
3. Pull the draw cord until the oil drain plug and the oil drain hose slide out of the bilge drain.
4. Place the end of the oil drain hose into a suitable container.
5. Unscrew the oil drain plug and drain the engine oil.
