Oil Distribution Manifold Priming
Follow these steps for initial outboard set-up:
Squeeze the oil primer bulb to flow oil from the

hose connection, through the filter, to the oil
pump.
Visually inspect filter to ensure that all air has
•
been purged.
Continue squeezing the primer until oil flows
•
through the distribution manifold into the oil dis-
tribution hoses and to the crankcase fittings. All
air must be eliminated from oil lines.
Use the Evinrude Diagnostics Software pro-
