How do you check the oil on a 1996 Polaris jet ski?

To check the oil on a 1996 Polaris jet ski, first ensure the jet ski is on a level surface and the engine is off. Remove the oil fill cap and wipe the dipstick clean with a cloth. Reinsert the dipstick without screwing it in, then remove it again to check the oil level; it should be within the markings on the dipstick. If necessary, add the appropriate oil type to reach the proper level.
