Gearcase Lubrication
When adding or changing gearcase lubricant, visually check for the presence of water in the lubricant. If water is
present, it may have settled to the bottom and will drain out prior to the lubricant, or it may be mixed with the
lubricant, giving it a milky colored appearance. If water is noticed, have the gearcase checked by your dealer.
Water in the lubricant may result in premature bearing failure or, in freezing temperatures, will turn to ice and
damage the gearcase.
