MERCURY MARINE VALIDATED MOTOR MOUNTING HARDWARE
IMPORTANT:Mercury Marine provides validated fasteners and installation
instructions, including torque specifications, with all of Mercury outboards so
they can be properly secured to boat transoms. Improper installation of the
outboard can cause performance and reliability issues that can lead to safety
concerns. Follow all of the instructions relating to the outboard installation. DO
NOT mount any other accessory onto the boat with the fasteners provided
with the outboard. For example, do not mount TowSport bars or boarding
ladders onto the boat using the mounting hardware included with the outboard.
Installing other products onto the boat that utilize the outboard mounting
hardware will compromise the ability of that hardware to properly and safely
secure the outboard to the transom.
Outboards that require validated mounting hardware will have the following
decal on the transom clamp.
