Maintenance interval guidelines
The service intervals provided in the Mainte-
nance Chart were developed based upon
typical use that includes operating at varied
speeds, with sufficient time for engine warm
up and cool-down, a medium to light load, and
an average cruising speed near the 3000 to
4000 rpm range. As with any engine, howev-
er, if your normal operating conditions are dif-
ferent, you should consider service more
often than shown, especially how often you
change your engine oil and gear oil. Exam-
ples might include extended wide-open-throt-
tle use or long periods of trolling or idling,
carrying heavy loads, or frequent starting and
stopping or shifting. More frequent mainte-
nance will often pay off many times over in in-
creased engine life and greater owner
satisfaction. Consult your Yamaha dealer for
additional maintenance recommendations.
