Changing gear oil

Be sure the outboard motor is securely fastened to the transom or a stable stand. Never get under the

lower unit while the outboard motor is tilted, even when the tilt support lever or knob is locked. Serious

injury could occur if the motor falls.

1. Tilt the outboard motor so that the gear oil drain screw is at the lowest point possible.

2. Place a suitable container under the gear case.

3. Remove gear oil drain screw.

Change the gear oil after the first 10 hours of operation, and every 100 hours or at 6-month intervals

thereafter. Otherwise the gear will wear quickly.

4. Remove the oil level plug to allow the oil to drain completely.

Inspect the used oil after it has been drained.If the oil is milky, water is getting into the gear case which

can cause gear damage. Consult Customer Service.

5. Use a flexible or pressurized filling device, inject the gear oil into the gear oil drain screw hole.

6. When the oil begins to flow out of the oil level plug hole, insert and tighten the oil level plug (If

necessary, change the seal spacer).

7. Insert and tighten the gear oil drain screw (If necessary, change the seal spacer).
