FILLING OIL (for Precision blend system
model)
This engine uses the YAMAHA PRECISION
BLEND SYSTEM, which provides superior
lubrication by ensuring the proper oil ratio
for all operating conditions. No fuel premix-
ing is needed (except during break-in/run-
ning-in). Simply pour gasoline into the fuel
tank and oil into the oil tank.
Convenient indicator segments indicate
condition of the oil supply. Refer to oil warn-
ing system.
To fill the engine oil into the oil tanks, pro-
ceed as follows:

Do not add gasoline (Petrol) to the oil
tank. Fire or explosion could result.
When remote oil tank is used:
Pour oil into the remote oil tank and turn the
main switch to “ON”, and the YAMAHA
PRECISION BLEND SYSTEM automatical-
ly feeds the oil from the remote oil tank to
the engine oil tank in the top cowling.
After refilling, turn the main switch to “OFF”.
Then, proceed to start the engine. Other-
wise, the oil-level warning system may pre-
vent the engine from revving up.

When the engine is operated for the first
time or stored for a period of time, a min-
imum of 5 liters (5.3 US qt, 4.4 Imp qt) of

Otherwise, the oil-feed pump chamber
will not be filled with oil, and no oil will
be supplied.
