Lubrication

1)Remove the spark plug(s). Spray “Yamaha Stor-Rite Engine Fogging Oil” into each cylinder for 5 seconds. Grease the spark plug threads and reinstall the spark plug(s) and torque to proper specification. (Refer to the section “CLEANING AND ADJUST- ING SPARK PLUG” for details).

2)Turn the engine over with the stop lanyard disconnected to work the fog- ging oil into the piston rings.

3)Fill the oil tanks. This prevents the for- mation of condensation. For models with a remote tank, it may be neces- sary to manually override the control unit to completely fill the engine main tank. (Refer to the section “FILLING OIL” for details).

4)Change the gear-case oil. (Refer to the section “CHANGING GEAR OIL” for details). Inspect the oil for the pres- ence of water which indicates a leaky seal. Seal replacement should be per- formed by an authorized Yamaha dealership prior to use.

5)Grease all grease fittings. (Refer to the section “GREASING” for details).
