Check engine oil level
It is normal for the engine to consume oil.
Therefore, the engine oil level must be
checked at regular intervals.
The boat must be at rest when measuring
the oil level. Wait a few minutes after
switching off the engine so that the oil can
flow back into the oil sump.
Then pull out the dipstick wipe off with a
clean cloth and push dipstick back in as far
as possible.
Then pull out the dipstick again and read off
the oil level:
A
- If the oil level is within the range
A, no
oil may
be added.
B
- If the oil level is within the range
B,
oil
may
be added.
When doing so, the oil level may then be
within the range
A
.
C
- If the oil level is within the range
C
or
below, oil
must
be added. It is sufficient
when the oil level is then somewhere
within the range
B
.
However, the oil level may never be
above the range A.
In the case of heavy engine loading, such as
during longer engine operation (10 - 12
hours), the oil level should at least lie in the
middle of the two markings (min/max).
The quantity difference between the
min. and max. mark is 1.0 litre.
