Periodic maintenance is vital to keep your Suzuki in top condition for your safety and comfortable boating
Consumable parts begin to wear, and oil/chemicals reduce their efficacy over time. You can have peace of mind with your Suzuki if you maintain it according to Suzuki Periodic Maintenance Schedule, for example, by having periodic engine oil and engine oil filter and gear oil changes and spark plug inspection at designated times. Periodic maintenance helps to ensure safety, reliability, comfort, and optimal performance of your Suzuki. This saves your money in the long run and avoids major and costly problems. Periodic maintenance also enhances the resale value of your outboard motor. Suzuki recommends genuine parts when you replace any of the parts of your Suzuki during maintenance or repair. Genuine parts will keep your outboard motor running at its best. Maintenance schedule is explained in your owner's manual. Also, authorised Suzuki dealers, who specialise in Suzuki Products, will be pleased to help you.
