MAINTENANCE
D Visually check for oil leaks at hydraulic connections.
Check wear on hydraulic lines and replace
if
worn.
D Lubricate detent ball and shift cable attachments.
D Inspect shift linkage.
D Inspect transmission bolts; retorque
if
necessary.
A
CAUTION:
Clutch
failure
will
occur
if
the
trans-
mission
shift
lever
does
not
fully
engage
the
detent
ball
positions.
Changing
Transmission
Fluid
After the initial
50
hour change, the transmission fluid
should be changed at
1000 operating hours or at winter
haul-out. However, fluid must be changed whenever it
becomes contaminated, changes color or smells rancid.
D Remove oil filler cap and dipstick.
D Remove oil cooler return line and allow oil to drain
into a container.
D Reconnect oil cooler return line.
D
Use a suction pump to remove transmission oil
through the filler cap/dipstick hole.
D Clean
off
the transmission and properly dispose
of
the used fluid.
D Refill the transmission with
Dextron II
or
III trans-
mission fluid. The quantity will vary depending on .
the transmission model and installation angle. Fill
through the dipstick hole.
D Check dipstick for proper fluid level.
D Replace oil filler cap/dipstick. (Dipstick is pressed
into place and turned clockwise until finger-tight.)
D Run engine - then shutdown and recheck fluid level.
A
WARNING:
Never
pull
the
dipstick
with
the
en-
gine
running.
Hot
fluid will
splash
from
the
dipstick
hole.
This
could
cause
severe
burns.

Storage requires special care. Follow these procedures:
D Drain water from the transmission oil cooler and
replace with a proper mixture
of
antifreeze coolant.
NOTE:
This operation will occur normally when the
engine raw water cooling system is properly winterized.
D Clean up the transmission and touch up unpainted
areas (use heat resistant paint).
D Fill the transmission with
Dextron
II
or
III fluid to
prevent internal corrosion.
D Loosen attaching hardware from the transmission
output flange and propeller shaft coupling flange
before removing the boat from the water. Separate
the flanges.
D
Spray the flanges with an anticorrosive coating.
WARRANTY
NOTES
Service manuals are available from your BORG
WARNER dealer.
BORG WARNER is aware
of
the shock loads that can be
placed on its gears as the result
of
mechanical propeller
operation or fully reversing
of
propeller blades while
shifting. Therefore torque loads and directional changes
should be made at low engine speeds.
If
it is found that
the failure was caused by a shock load, the warranty
claim will be denied.
Oil temperature maximum is 190°F (105°C) during
operation.
If
oil temperature runs too high, consult your
BORG WARNER distributor.
A
CAUTION:
System-related
noises
or
vibrations
can
occur
at
low
engine
speeds
which
can
cause
gear
ranle
resulting
in
damage
to
the
engine
and/or
transmission.
BORG
WARNER
is
not
responsible
for
total
system-related
torsional
vibration
of
this
type.
