Safety information
●
Before mounting or operating the outboard
motor, read this entire manual. Reading it
should give you an understanding of the
motor and its operation.
●
Before operating the boat, read any own-
er’s or operator’s manuals supplied with it
and all labels. Be sure you understand
each item before operating.
●
Do not overpower the boat with this out-
board motor. Overpowering the boat could
result in loss of control. The rated power of
the outboard should be equal to or less
than the rated horsepower capacity of the
boat. If the rated horsepower capacity of
the boat is unknown, consult the dealer or
boat manufacturer.
●
Do not modify the outboard. Modifications
could make the motor unfit or unsafe to
use.
●
Never operate after drinking alcohol or tak-
ing drugs. About 50% of all boating fatali-
ties involve intoxication.
●
Have an approved personal flotation de-
vice (PFD) on board for every occupant. It
is a good idea to wear a PFD whenever
boating. At a minimum, children and non-
swimmers should always wear PFDs, and
everyone should wear PFDs when there
are potentially hazardous boating condi-
tions.
●
Gasoline is highly flammable, and its va-
pors are flammable and explosive. Handle
and store gasoline carefully. Make sure
there are no gas fumes or leaking fuel be-
fore starting the engine.
●
This product emits exhaust gases which
contain carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless gas which may cause brain dam-
age or death when inhaled. Symptoms in-
clude nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness.
Keep cockpit and cabin areas well ventilat-
ed. Avoid blocking exhaust outlets.
●
Check throttle, shift, and steering for prop-
er operation before starting the engine.
●
Attach the engine stop switch lanyard cord
to a secure place on your clothing, or your
arm or leg while operating. If you acciden-
tally leave the helm, the cord will pull from
the switch, stopping the engine.
●
Know the marine laws and regulations
where you will be boating—and obey
them. For basic boating rules, see “Rules
