Replacement parts
If replacement parts are necessary, use only genuine
Yamaha parts or parts of equivalent design and quality. Any
part of inferior quality may malfunction, and the resulting
loss of control could endanger the operator and passengers.
Yamaha genuine parts and accessories are available from
your Yamaha dealer.

Maintenance interval guidelines
The service intervals provided in the Maintenance Chart
were developed based upon "typical" use that includes op-
erating at varied speeds, with sufficient time for engine warm
up and cool-down, a medium to light load, and an average
cruising speed near the 3000 to 4000 rpm range. As with any
engine, however, if your normal operating conditions are dif-
ferent, you should consider service more often than shown,
especially how often you change your engine oil and gear oil.
Examples might include extended wide-open-throttle use or
long periods of trolling or idling, carrying heavy loads, or fre-
quent starting and stopping or shifting. More frequent main-
tenance will often pay off many times over in increased
engine life and greater owner satisfaction. Consult your
Yamaha dealer for additional maintenance recommenda-
tions.
