CHANGING GEAR OIL
WARNING
@
●
Be sure the outboard is securely fas-
tened to the transom or a stable stand.
You could be severely injured if the
outboard falls on you.
●
Never get under the lower unit while it
is tilted, even when the tilt-support
lever/knob is locked. Severe injury
could occur if the outboard acciden-
tally falls.
@
1) Tilt the outboard motor so that the oil
drain plug is at the lowest point possible.
2) Place a suitable container under the
gear-case.
3) Remove the oil drain plug
1
.
NOTE:
@
The oil drain plug is magnetic. Remove all
metal particles from the plug before rein-
stalling it.
@
4) Remove the oil level plug
2
to allow the
oil to drain completely.
CAUTION:
@
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 a Yamaha dealer for
repair of the lower unit seals.
@
NOTE:
@
For disposal of used oil consult your Yamaha
dealer.
