Yamaha V-MAX SHO VF115 User Manual

Over the years, Yamaha has learned a thing or two about keeping boating fun
and enjoyable—not to mention safe. And proper maintenance plays a big role
in this. Here are a few related thoughts to carry with you when preparing for
good times out on the water.
THINGS TO REMEMBER
Don’t Forget
Keep it simple.
Always be prepared, especially from
a maintenance angle, and don’t let an
easy-to-fix problem spoil your fun.
Remember to carry these simple items
onboard at all times. Your local Yamaha
Marine dealer can help put this all together.
• A small tool kit with basic hand tools.
• An electrical repair kit, with electrical tape,
fuses, and electrical repair items like connectors, crimping pliers and extra wire.
• An extra 10-micron fuel/water separating filter.
• A spare propeller and a floating propeller wrench. A spare prop nut and cotter pin are
also good choices.
