4. Remove the oil tank filler cap 1, wipe
the dipstick clean, and then screw the
filler cap into the filler hole completely.
Remove the filler cap again and check
that the oil level is between the minimum
level mark 3 and maximum level
mark2 on the dipstick.
5. If the oil level is below the minimum level
mark, add enough oil so that the oil level
is between the minimum and maximum
level marks on the dipstick, and then
install the filler cap. If the engine oil level
is significantly above the maximum level
mark, the oil tank is overfilled. Have a
Yamaha dealer remove the excessive
amount of engine oil.

Water separator
Check the water separator 1 for water.
Normally the water separator is empty. The
water separator retains any water entering
through the fuel tank breather hose if the
watercraft is capsized.
If water remains in the water separator,
drain it by removing the drain screw 2.
Place a drain pan under the water separator
to catch the draining water or use a dry cloth
to soak up any water that could spill into the
watercraft. If any water spills into the water-
craft, be sure to wipe it up with a dry cloth.
Be sure to install the drain screw after drain-
ing the water separator.
