Install  lubricant  level  plug  before  removing
tube  from  drain/fill  hole.  Drain/fill  plug  can
then be installed without loss of lubricant.
Securely tighten both plugs.
Replace gearcase lubricant after first 10 hours of
operation. Check level and condition of lubricant af-
ter next 50 hours of operation. Add lubricant if nec-
essary.
Thereafter, check level and condition of lubricant
every 50 hours. Replace lubricant every 100 hours
of operation or once each season, whichever oc-
curs first. Refill with  Ultra-HPF gearcase lubricant.
If not available, Hi-Vis™ or other marine gearcase
lube  can  be  used,  however,  long  term  durability
may be affected with continued use. See your Deal-
er.
IMPORTANT: The recommended gear   lubricants
include  special  additives  for  marine  applications.
Do not use automotive gear lubricants, 2-stroke or
4-stroke
engine oil, or any other oil or grease for
gearcase applications.
With motor in normal operating position:
1)
Remove drain/fill plug and lubricant level plug
from side of gearcase and completely drain
gearcase of old lubricant.
2)
Examine  drained  lubricant  for  metal  filings,
milky appearance, or black color with burnt
odor. If old lubricant has any of those charac-
teristics, see your Dealer. If drained lubricant
is in good condition, continue.
