• Monitor the temperature and oil gauges continuously.
• If the temperature rises past 200° F (93° C), or your
oil pressure drops below 4 psi (41 kPa), STOP THE
ENGINE IMMEDIATELY.
Damage due to running the engine with excessive tem-
perature or low oil pressure is not covered by your war-
ranty.
EXHAUST HOSES
Exhaust hoses on most boats carry exhaust gases from
the engine outside of the boat. These hoses carry water
that has been used to cool the engine. This water keeps
the hoses cool and prevents them from melting.
The engine exhaust from this product con-
tains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm.
Carbon monoxide gas (CO) is colorless,
odorless and extremely dangerous. All
engines and fuel burning appliances produce
CO as exhaust. Direct and prolonged expo-
sure to CO will cause BRAIN DAMAGE or
DEATH. Signs of exposure to CO include
nausea, dizziness and drowsiness. Ensure
adequate ventilation to prevent accumulation
of CO in the boat.
Monitor the engine temperature gauge frequently. If your
engine overheats, carefully inspect the exhaust hoses for
damage. Damaged hoses can allow carbon monoxide
gas to enter your boat.
SELECTING A PROPELLER
For best engine performance and longevity, the wide-
open-throttle (WOT) engine operation must be near the
top of, but within, the specified WOT operating range. To
adjust the WOT operating range, you must select a pro-
peller (propping) with the proper diameter and pitch. The
propeller which was supplied with your boat was chosen
by the boat builder for best all-around performance
under average conditions.
