FUEL TANK
If the fuel tank needs to be cleaned
or when any water is found in the fuel
system, take the boat to your Yamaha
dealer for service.
ENGINE OIL/FILTER
Engine oil is extremely hot after the
engine is turned off. Coming into
contact with or getting any engine
oil on your clothes could result in
burns.
• Be sure the engine has enough
oil but do not overfill. If there is
too little oil, the engine can be
damaged. If there is too much oil,
the air filter can become saturat-
ed with oil, permanently damag-
ing the filter and reducing engine
performance.
• Ifoilisleakingortheoil-pressure
warning indicator comes on when
the engine is running, immedi-
ately turn the engine off and have
a Yamaha dealer check the boat.
Continuing to operate under such
conditions could cause severe
engine damage.
It is recommended to have a Yamaha
dealer change the engine oil and oil
filter. However, if you choose to change
the oil and oil filter on your own and you
have the special equipment necessary
to do so, refer to the service manual for
this boat.
Dispose of used oil according to local
regulations.
