LEVEL PLUG<br />
Gear Oil Level/Check<br />
1. Position the outboard motor verti-<br />
cally.<br />
2. Remove the level plug and see if oil<br />
flows out. If no oil flows out, fill<br />
through the drain plug hole until the<br />
oil starts to flow out through the level<br />
plug hole. If there is water in the oil,<br />
the water will flow out first when the<br />
drain plug is removed, or the oil will<br />
be milky colored. If the oil appears<br />
abnormal contact your closest<br />
authorized <strong>Honda</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> dealer.<br />
