Testing and inspection work
► Run the propulsion engine at idling speed for at least 30 seconds.
► Stop propulsion engine.
► Remove the engine oil dipstick and wipe it clean.
► Replace engine oil dipstick and tighten.
► Remove the engine oil dipstick again.
► Check engine oil level.
The engine oil level must be between the top and bottom mark-
ings.
If the engine oil level is between the two marks, the engine oil level can
be checked accurately at operating temperature.
If the engine oil level is below the lower mark or no oil is indicated,
check again when cold.
Check engine oil level again:
► Start propulsion engine.
► Run the propulsion engine at idling speed for another 60 seconds.
► Stop propulsion engine.
► Check engine oil level again.
The engine oil level must be between the top and bottom mark-
ings.
If no engine oil is shown for the second measurement an engine oil
change is recommended.
Refer to chapter "Replace engine oil and oil filter".
If the engine oil level is below the lower marking, add approx. 200 ml
(0.05 gal) recommended engine oil.
Refer to chapter "Lubrication table".
The oil quantity between the top and bottom markings is approx
500 ml (0.13 gal).
Do not overfill the engine oil.
► Restart the propulsion engine and run at idling speed for another 60
seconds.
► Check engine oil level.
The engine oil level must be between the top and bottom mark-
ings.
The propulsion engine is ready for operation.
Check engine oil level at operating temperature of the propulsion en-
gine
Once the propulsion engine is at operating temperature, the exact engine
oil level can be checked.
► Start propulsion engine and bring up to operating temperature approx.
77 - 80 °C (170 - 176 °F).
The engine temperature can be read on the display.
► Stop propulsion engine.
► Check engine oil level immediately after stopping.
► Remove the engine oil dipstick and wipe it clean.
