LEVEL" (hot full line).
"MAX OPERATING LEVEL" (hot full line)
IMPORTANT: If any water is visible at the bottom of the gear lube monitor or if the gear lube appears discolored, contact your
Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair Facility immediately. These conditions may indicate a water leak in the drive.

Lube, used after break‑in, is blue. Do not mix the gear lubricants.
