Check the Transmission Fluid Level
Because you will get an accurate reading only after the
engine has run long enough to thoroughly warm up, this should
be one of the last checks you conduct before boating. Run the
engine in the water at least fi ve minutes, and check the  uid im-
mediately after shutting down to get an accurate reading.
Step 1: After operating the engine at idle while in the water for
atleastveminutesoruntilwarm,turntheengineOFF
and disconnect the engine safety starting switch. Be
sure the throttle/shift control lever is in neutral. Open
the engine compartment and locate the transmission
dipstick.
Note: The transmission fl uid level must be
checked immediately after the engine shut-down to

prevent an incorrect reading. Fluid drains back into the transmission from the cooler and cooler
lines, and the dipstick could give a false reading if not done quickly.
Step 2: Remove the dipstick and wipe it off with a clean rag. Quickly re-insert it fully and immediately remove. Check
that the level is at the FULL WARM mark on the stick.

MasterCraft recommends that your quarterly—or 50 hour—maintenance
requirements be performed by your MasterCraft dealer. The staff there has the
proper equipment and technical training to best meet your service needs.
Lubricate the Engine Starter Gear and Shaft
Because this process should be completed while the en-
gine is cool and cannot cause burns to your skin, we recommend
you do this before starting the boat.
Step 1: Ensure the engine is OFF and the engine safety starting
switch is disconnected. Be certain that the throttle/shift
control lever is in neutral. The engine must be cool.
Step 2: Disconnectthepositive(+)batteryterminal.
Step 3: Open the engine cover and locate the starter on the low-
er starboard side of the engine.
Step 4: Disconnect the starter and carefully remove it.
Step 5: Lubricate the starter bendix with a light coating of water-
proof grease or white lithium grease.
