INFORMATION
BEFORE OPERATION.
To prevent damage to the motor or
boat, make sure the transom angle
adjusting bolt is tight.
To safely realize the full potential of
this outboard motor, you need a
complete understanding of its
operation and a certain amount of
practice with its controls.
Before operating the outboard motor
for the first time, please review the
on page and the
chapter titled
For your safety, do not start or
operate the engine in an enclosed
area. Your engine’s exhaust contains
poisonous carbon monoxide gas that
can collect rapidly in an enclosed
area and cause illness or death.
Proper break-in procedure allows the
moving parts to wear in smoothly for
best performance and long service
life.
For the first 10 hours, run the
outboard motor at low speed, and
avoid full-throttle operation.
The transom angle adjusting bolt is
used to adjust the angle of the
outboard motor in the normal
operating position (p. ).
To adjust, first tilt the outboard
motor so it is not resting on the
bolt.
There are four adjustment
positions.
Loosen the wing nut to free the
adjusting bolt.
Adjust the angle of the motor, and
tighten the wing nut. Be sure that
the bolt head and wing nut are
seated in one of the four
adjustment positions.
