SERVICING YOUR OUTBOARD MOTOR
Engine Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level with the
engine stopped and the outboard
motor in the vertical position.
1. Unlatch and remove the engine
cover (p. 76).
2. Remove the oil level dipstick and
wipe it clean.
3. Insert the dipstick all the way in,
then remove it and check the oil
level shown on the dipstick.
4. If the oil level is low, remove the
oil filler cap, and add oil to reach
the upper limit mark shown on the
dipstick. Use the oil recommended
on p. 81.
Running the engine with a low oil
level can cause engine damage.
5. Install the oil filler cap and tighten
it securely.
6. Install and lock the engine cover.
