Checking and Adding Engine Oil
IMPORTANT: Do not overfill. Tilt outboard out/up past vertical for
approximately one minute to allow trapped oil to drain back to
the oil sump. Tilt outboard to vertical (not tilted) position when
checking engine oil. For accurate readings, check oil only when
engine is cold or after engine has not run for at least an hour.
1. Before starting (cold engine) tilt outboard out/up past vertical
to allow trapped oil to drain back to the oil sump. Allow
outboard to remain tilted for approximately one minute.
2. Tilt outboard to vertical operating position.
3.
Remove the top cowl. Refer to Maintenance ‑ Cowl
Removal and Installation.
4. Pull out the dipstick. Wipe the dipstick end with a clean rag
or towel and push it back in all the way.
5. Pull the dipstick back out again and observe the oil level. Oil
should be in the operating range (cross hatched region).
