CRANKCASE OIL AND FILTER (BOAT OUT OF THE WATER)
!
WARNING
Performing tests with the engine running may cause the propeller to rotate
and result in serious injury or death. Use caution when performing a test that
requires the engine running, and remove the propeller to avoid injury.
NOTICE
Operating the engine out of the water at high speeds creates suction, which
can collapse the water supply hose and overheat the engine. Do not operate
the engine above 1400 RPM out of the water and without sufficient cooling
water supply.
IMPORTANT: Change the oil only when the engine is warm from operation.
Use only the recommended motor oil; see Specifications
.
