Install decals in a highly visible location, such as
one of the following:
• Dashboard/deck of boat, next to key switch
• Deck of boat, next to the remote oil fill
• Deck of boat, next to oil tank assembly
• Oil tank cover
• Cover of oil tank compartment
• Attach to oil tank or oil fill cap.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the engine label and
boat decals match EMM programming.
Break-In Oiling
IMPORTANT: DO NOT add oil in the fuel tank
on Evinrude E-TEC models.
The EMM automatically supplies extra oil to the
engine as follows:
• 60° V4 & V6: First five hours above 2000 RPM
Follow these steps for outboard set-up:
• Use Evinrude Diagnostics software to make
sure the break-in program has been started on
a new outboard.
• Use the diagnostics software to start break-in
oiling after a powerhead rebuild.
The operator must monitor the oil
tank level to confirm oil consumption. This
may require several hours of operation above
idle.
Oil Supply Priming
Oil Hose Priming
Insert the oil supply hose from the oil tank into a
suitable container. Squeeze the oil primer bulb
until oil flows from the oil tank into the container.
Once oil supply hose from the oil tank is filled with
oil, connect the hose to the oil supply fitting on
outboard and secure with Oetiker clamp.
Oil Pump Priming
Squeeze the oil primer bulb until oil flows from the
oil supply hose, through the oil filter, and into the
oil pump assembly.
IMPORTANT: Inspect oil filter to make sure it is
filled with oil. All air must be eliminated from the oil
filter during priming procedure.
IMPORTANT: Arrow on oil filter faces incoming
oil.
Continue to squeeze the oil primer bulb until oil
flows through the oil pump, into the oil distribution
hoses, and to the crankcase fittings.
Use Evinrude Diagnostics software to make sure
the EMM is programmed for the type of oil being
used.
Start the outboard. Use the oil priming function in
the software to make sure the system is com-
pletely primed.
