Filling the oil tank
WARNING
●Do not add gasoline to the oil tank.
Fire or explosion could result.
●Oil in the bilge is a serious fire hazard.
Wipe up any spilled oil immediately.

empty the oil injection pump must be
bled to ensure proper oil flow, otherwise
engine damage may occur. If bleeding of
the oil pump is necessary, have a
Yamaha dealer bleed it.
