Procedure

Power Tilt Oil Level Check

1. Secure the outboard motor to the transom or service stand. WARNING: Be sure the outboard motor is secured to transom or service stand; accidental drop or fall could lead to severe personal injury. 2. Tilt the outboard motor up and lock the tilt with the tilt stopper. WARNING: Be sure to lock the outboard motor when tilted up. Do not go under a tilted and locked outboard motor; accidental fall could cause severe personal injury. 3. Keep the reservoir tank in a vertical position. WARNING: Do not unscrew the oil cap with the outboard motor tilted down — pressurized oil in the tank may spurt out. 4. Remove the oil cap by turning it counter-clockwise. 5. Check that the oil level reaches the bottom line of the plug hole. Top up with ATF Dexron III (or equivalent ATF) if necessary. 6. Reinstall the oil cap by turning it clockwise.
