Changing gear oil
Be sure the outboard motor is
securely fastened to the transom or a
stable stand. You could be severely
injured if the outboard motor falls on
you.
Never get under the lower unit
while it is tilted, even when the tilt
support lever or knob is locked.
Severe injury could occur if the
outboard motor accidental- ly falls.
1. Tilt the outboard motor so that the gear
oil drain screw is at the lowest point
pos- sible.
2. Place a suitable container under the
gear case.
3. Remove the gear oil drain screw and
gasket. NOTICE: If there is an exces-
sive quantity of metal particles on
the magnetic gear oil drain screw,
this can indicate lower unit problem.
