FUEL LINE INSPECTION
Visually inspect the fuel line and primer bulb for cracks, swelling,
leaks, hardness, or other signs of deterioration or damage. If any
of these conditions are found, the fuel line or primer bulb must be
replaced.
Steering Link Rod Fasteners
IMPORTANT: The steering link rod that connects the steering
cable to the engine must be fastened using special washer head
bolt ("a" ‑ Part Number 10‑856680) and self‑locking nylon insert
locknuts ("b" & "e" ‑ Part Number 11‑826709113). These locknuts
must never be replaced with common nuts (non‑locking) as they
will work loose and vibrate off, freeing the link rod to disengage.
!
WARNING
Improper fasteners or improper installation procedures can result
in loosening or disengagement of the steering link rod. This can
cause a sudden, unexpected loss of boat control, resulting in
serious injury or death due to occupants being thrown within or
out of the boat. Always use required components and follow
instructions and torque procedures.
Assemble steering link rod to steering cable with two flat washers
and nylon insert locknut. Tighten locknut until it seats, then back
nut off 1/4 turn.
