WARNING
Exceeding the boat's maximum horsepower rating can cause serious injury
or death. Overpowering the boat can affect boat control and flotation
characteristics or break the transom. Do not install an engine that exceeds
the boat's maximum power rating.
Do not overpower or overload your boat. Most boats will carry a required
capacity plate indicating the maximum acceptable power and load as
determined by the manufacturer following certain federal guidelines. If in doubt,
contact your dealer or the boat manufacturer.

WARNING
Starting the engine with the drive in gear can cause serious injury or death.
Never operate a boat that does not have a neutral‑safety‑protection device.
The remote control connected to the outboard must be equipped with a start in
neutral only protection device. This prevents the engine from starting in gear.

Genuine Mercury Precision or Quicksilver Accessories have been specifically
designed and tested for your outboard. These accessories are available from

of approved accessories or the use of nonapproved accessories can damage
