Engine oil change — using oil changer
WARNING
Avoid changing the engine oil immediately
after turning the engine off. The oil is hot
and should be handled with care to avoid
burns.
CAUTION:
• Do not run the engine with too much or
not enough oil in the oil tank. Oil could
spray out or the engine could be dam-
aged.
• Do not run the engine for more than 15
seconds without supplying water, when
checking the oil level on land.
The engine could overheat.
• Be sure to change the engine oil after the
first 10 hours of operation, and every 100
hours thereafter or at the start of a new
season, otherwise the engine will wear
quickly.
1. Warm the engine up, and then put the
watercraft in a horizontal position.
