Replacement parts
If replacement parts are necessary, use
only genuine Hidea parts or parts of
equivalent design and quality. Any part of
inferior quality may malfunction, and the
resulting loss of control could endanger the
operator and passengers. Hidea genuine
parts and ac- cessories are available from
your Hidea dealer.

Maintenance interval guidelines
The service intervals provided in the
Mainte- nance Chart were developed based
upon “typical” use that includes operating at
varied speeds, with sufficient time for
engine warm up and cool-down, a medium
to light load, and an average cruising speed
near the 3000 to 4000 rpm range. As with
any engine, however, if your normal
operating conditions are different, you
should consider service more often than
shown, especially how often you change
your engine oil and gear oil. Ex- amples
might include extended wide-open- throttle
use or long periods of trolling or idling,
carrying heavy loads, or frequent starting
and stopping or shifting. More fre- quent
maintenance will often pay off many times
over in increased engine life and great- er
owner satisfaction. Consult your Hidea
dealer for additional maintenance recom-
mendations.
