Changing the engine oil
WARNING@ Engine oil is extremely hot immediately
after the engine is turned off. Coming
into contact with or getting any engine
oil on your clothes could result in burns.
@
CAUTION:@
Do not run the engine with too much or
not enough oil in the oil tank. Oil could
spray out and the engine could be
damaged.

Be sure to change the engine oil after
the first 10 hours of operation, and
every 100 hours thereafter or at the
start of a new season, otherwise the
engine will wear quickly.
The oil filter should be replaced every
year or every 100 hours of operation.
Have a Yamaha dealer replace the oil
filter if necessary.

It is recommended to have a Yamaha
dealer change the engine oil. However, if
you choose to change the oil on your own,
consult a Yamaha dealer.
NOTE:@ Dispose of used oil according to local regu-
lations.
