INSTALLATION & OPERATION MANUAL

1. ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECKS

The engine oil level must be checked at regular
intervals.
 Be sure the boat is level.
 Start the engine and allow it to reach normal
operating temperature.
 Turn the engine off and wait about 5 minutes,
until the oil has returned to the oil pan.
 Pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, and re-
insert it fully.
 Pull the dipstick out again and check the level.
The level should be between F and L. If it is
near or at L, add enough oil to bring the level
to F. Do not fill with engine oil above the F
mark.
