operating again or have your boat serviced by your local MasterCraft dealer. Note that damage to
your engine from englected oil problems can be costly to repair. Such damage is not covered by your
warranty. (Page 7-2)
1: To ensure proper break-in and lubrication, boat owners should not remove the factory break-in oil until
after the initial ten (10) hours of operation. At that time, an oil change should be performed by an
authorized MasterCraft service technician/your local MasterCraft dealer. (Page 10-1)
2: DO NOT use the ski pylon for lifting. It is NOT designed as a central lifting point. Also, DO NOT use
the stern ski tow as a lifting ring. The deck will be damaged. See the Storage Cradle sub-section of the
Lifting the Boat section of this Manual. Also never lift a boat with a large amont of water in the bilge
or containing a water-filled device such as a Fat Sac or ballast system. The extra stress will put an
excessive load on the hull and lifting equipment that may seriously damage the boat and void your
warranty. (Page 13-1)
3: Continued operation after the warning light has illuminated may cause severe engine damage. This will
void your warranty. (Page 11-3)
4: Because of the complexity of preparing your boat for proper winter storage, as well as the possibility of
extreme damage to the engine if a preparation error was made during winterization, MasterCraft recom-
mends that you schedule an appointment with your local MasterCraft dealer and permit the dealer to
perform the winterization procedures. (Page 21-1)
5: Add-on equipment may adversely affect the alternator output or overload the electrical system. Any
damage caused as a result will not be covered by, and may void, your warranty. (Page 17-3)
6: Ignoring elevated temperatures on a temperature gauge or any other evidence of the engine operating at
temperatures above recommended levels can result in serious damage to the engine. Any resulting
damage will not be covered by, and may void, your warranty! (Page 17-5)
7: Failure to follow the engine oil recommendation listed in the manual can cause additional engine wear
and increase the possibility of engine component failure. Damage to your engine due to incorrect oil
usage can be costly to repair, and is not covered by your warranty! (Pages 10-2 and 18-3)
8: Failure to maintain your coolant at the proper level can cause engine damage. Your warranty will not cover
engine damage due to overheating or any other cause associated with improper coolant levels. (Page 17-2)
9: Do not operate the starter motor continuously for more than fifteen (15) seconds without at least a two
(2) minute “cool-down” period. Failure to do so may cause the starter to overheat, resulting in damage.
Failure to release the ignition key after the engine has started may cause damage to the starter motor and
drive. (Page 11-2)
10: Damage to the engine by use of low-quality gasoline or gasoline with an octane rating below the
minimum level listed will void the warranty on your boat. (Page 8-1)
11: Fuels that are blended to contain methanol or wood alcohol are not to be used in MasterCraft engines.
These fuels can corrode some metal parts in your fuel system and engine. Damage caused by the use of
unapproved fuels is not covered by warranty. (Page 8-2)
