Oiling System Set-Up

Location
Consider the installation location
IMPORTANT:
of the oil tank carefully. The oil tank is vented to
the atmosphere. To avoid serious powerhead
damage, be sure the oil tank is installed in a loca-
tion that does not allow constant exposure to sun-
light, rain, bilge water or spray.
Select a mounting location that provides:
A solid place to mount the tank;
•
A dry location that prevents exposure to rain or
•
spraying water;
Access for adding oil;
•
Access to oil-primer bulb; and
•
Interference-free hose and wire routing to out-
•
board.
If necessary, the oil tank can be mounted further
from the outboard than the supplied hoses and
harness allow. The maximum length of oil supply
hose that can be fitted to the oil tank is 25 ft.
(7.6 m).
Do not add hose to an existing oil
IMPORTANT:
supply hose.
If the oil tank requires a longer oil supply hose:
Oil supply hose between the primer bulb and
•
outboard must be replaced with one continuous
length of 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) hose.
Maximum length of hose is 25 ft. (7.6 m).
•
INSTALLATION AND PREDELIVERY
Replacement hose must be designated for fuel
•
or oil use and approved for marine use.
Extend wiring harness with 16 gauge AWG
•
wire.
Protect connections with heat shrink tube.
•
Maintain wire color and polarity when extending
•
harness.
An appropriately sized battery box may be used to
conceal and protect the oil tank, if desired.
Be sure box includes drain holes
IMPORTANT:
so it does not fill with water and contaminate oil.
