Starting the Engine
Before starting, read the pre‑starting check list, special operating
instructions, and engine break‑in procedure in the Operation
section.
NOTICE
Failure to provide sufficient cooling water will damage the water
pump and cause the engine to overheat. Provide a sufficient
supply of water at the water inlets during operation.
1. Lower the outboard to the vertical operating position. Make
sure all cooling water intake holes are submerged.
3. Position the fuel line primer bulb so the arrow on the side of
the bulb is pointing up. Squeeze the fuel line primer bulb
several times until it feels firm.
