MAINTENANCE
Proper care, maintenance and adjustment will contribute to the
peak performance of the MasterCraft boat, while also extending the
overall service life and the resale value.
The pages that follow provide instructions on how to accomplish
the required checks, inspections and services listed. An authorized
MasterCraft service department is the best source for proper
maintenance.
NOTE: The engine and drive train require scheduled maintenance
checks and services in addition to the boat’s other maintenance
requirements. Read and understand the engine owner’s manual
that has been provided, and follow the maintenance schedule to
ensure proper operation and quality service over the life of the boat
and drive train. Failure to follow the maintenance requirements and
instructions listed in this and all other manuals may result in dam-
age to the components, systems and equipment of the boat, which
resulting damage will not be covered by warranty! Safety issues are
also directly impacted by proper maintenance!
