Oil Tank and Oil Fill

Depending on your selection of the various optional engine packages (i.e., oil injected outboard engines),
your boat may be equipped with a remote oil tank. If your engine package requires the installation of an
oil tank, it will be mounted in the bilge and can be accessed via the hatch below in the motor well. The oil
fill will be installed on the forward edge of the motor well.
Make sure that the oil tank is well stocked with the type of engine oil that is recommended for your
engine. Refer to your engine manual.
uncontaminated by water or dirt. Check to make sure the oil lines are free from leaks, kinks and chafing.
Some motors use a primer bulb to initiate oil flow. Air may periodically enter the system and require
purging. Refer to your engine manual for specific instructions.
If your optional engine package requires the installation of a remote oil tank, please refer to the owner's
manual provided by the engine manufacturer for operational procedures and for information related to the
care and maintenance of their product. When in doubt, always defer to the engine manufacturer's
instructions and/or recommendations.

Fuel / Oil Leaks

The fuel tank is vented via the vented fuel fill fitting and the fitting should be inspected for obstructions
regularly. Verify that all of the fuel hoses remain properly secured and located according to NMMA
standards. Inspect all hose clamps and fittings to ensure they are double clamped where needed and
that there are no fuel leaks in any of the hoses. Also, inspect the oil system, if applicable, and ensure that
the oil tank and hoses remain properly connected and secured.
If you notice a fuel odor or see fuel in the bilge, there may be a leak somewhere in the fuel system.
Correct any fuel leaks before operating the vessel.
Caution: If at all possible, any fuel tank and or fuel system repair should be handled by
your Pro-Line dealer's service department or by another qualified service professional.
