●

Be sure the outboard motor is securely

fastened to the transom or a stable

stand. You could be severely injured if

the outboard motor falls on you.

●

Never get under the lower unit while it

is tilted, even when the tilt support lever

or knob is locked. Severe injury could

occur if the outboard motor accidental-

ly falls.

1. Tilt the outboard motor so that the gear

oil drain screw is at the lowest point pos-

sible.

2. Place a suitable container under the

gear case.

3. Remove the gear oil drain screw.

NOTE:

If the magnetic gear oil drain screw

equipped: remove all metal particles from

the screw before installing it.

4. Remove the oil level plug 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 re-

pair of the lower unit seals.

NOTE:

For disposal of used oil consult your Yamaha

dealer.

5. With the outboard motor in a vertical po-

sition, and using a flexible or pressur-

ized filling device, inject the gear oil into

the gear oil drain screw hole.

6. When the oil begins to flow out of the oil

level plug hole, insert and tighten the oil

level plug.
