Quick Oil Drain System
The quick oil drain hose assembly was attached to the engine oil pan at the factory. However, some minor assembly
is still needed before you can use this system.
NOTE: This is not the only method for changing your oil. Your selling dealer can recommend other methods.
How to install the quick oil drain system:
1. Unscrew the factory installed
bilge plug from the bilge drain
(A). NOTE: Keep the original
factory bilge plug on your boat
as a spare.
2. Unclip the quick oil drain assem-
bly from the wire loop (B) on the
engine.
3. Unclip the bilge plug’s draw cord
(C) from the oil drain plug’s
draw cord (D).
4. Thread the oil drain plug’s draw
cord (D) through the bilge drain
(A).
5. Pull the oil drain plug (E), and
the oil drain hose (F) through the
bilge drain.
6. Adjust the hose stop clamp (G)
so that no more than 12 inches of
hose, including the oil drain
plug, can extend out of the bilge
drain (A).
7. Clip the bilge plug’s draw cord
(C) back to the oil drain plug’s
draw cord (D).
8. Push the oil drain hose, oil drain
plug, and both draw cords
through the bilge drain and into
the bilge area.
9. Screw the bilge plug (H) into the
bilge drain (A) and tighten
firmly.
To drain the engine oil:
1. Remove your boat from the water.
2. Unscrew the bilge plug.
3. Pull the draw cord until the oil drain plug and the oil drain hose slide out of the bilge drain.
4. Place the end of the oil drain hose into a suitable container.
5. Unscrew the oil drain plug and drain the engine oil.
6. Replace the oil drain plug.
7. Push the drain hose back into the bilge.
8. Replace the bilge plug and tighten firmly.
Always dispose of waste oil in accordance with local regulations.
