Gearcase Lubricant
With outboard vertical, check the gearcase lubri-
cant level:
• Remove the lubricant level plug. Lubricant must
be even with the bottom of the threaded hole.
• A clean tie strap can be used as a “dip stick” if
the lubricant level is not obvious.
• Add HPF PRO gearcase lubricant as needed.
Oil Level
Make sure oil tank contains an adequate supply of
the correct lubricant for the outboard and that the
LOW OIL warning has been tested. Refer to Rec-
ommended Lubricants on p. 77.
When starting the outboard for the first time, refer
to OIL SUPPLY PRIMING on p. 79.
Trim and Tilt Fluid
Make sure trim and tilt reservoir is full before run-
ning outboard:
• Tilt the outboard and engage the tilt support.
• Remove filler cap and check fluid level.
• Three Ram System–Add Power Trim/Tilt Fluid
or GM Dexron II, as needed, to bring level to the
bottom of the fill plug threads.
