MAINTENANCE/BREAK IN REQUIREMENTS:  Oil and filter change should be performed after the first 5 hours.  Failure to have these services performed will VOID the warranty.  The engine’s oil and filter must be changed for marine engines every 2 months or 25 hours, whichever comes first.  Records of the maintenance performed, receipts and work orders must be kept.  The parts, labor, date, or hours, and service performed must be documented on the receipts.  Failure to perform these basic operations will result in a voided warranty.
