ENGINE OIL
Engine oil change
The oil should be changed when engine is
warm so that the oil will drain thoroughly from
the engine.
To change the engine oil:
1. Place the motor in a vertical position and
remove the motor cover.
2. Remove the oil filler cap.
3. Place a drain pan under the engine oil drain
screw.
4. Remove the engine oil drain screw 1 and
gasket 2, then let the engine oil drain.
WARNING
The motor must be shut off before any
ENGINE OIL procedures are performed.
CAUTION
The oil should be changed more often
when the engine is operated under
adverse conditions like extended trolling.
5. After draining, secure the engine oil drain
screw with a new gasket.
NOTE:
There are spare gaskets in the tool bag.

upper level.
