OVERVIEW
Engine kill-cord
OFF START
ON
One clip must be attached to the
engine shut-off switch, the other
to a secure place on the operator’s
floating device or wrist. If the
operator falls overboard or moves
far enough away from the operator’s
position the -kill cord will stop the
engine, thereby prevent the boat
from running away under power.
BREAKING IN THE
ENGINE
The OXE Diesel outboard, as well as
all new engines, needs a period of
breaking in. This is to allow mating
surfaces of moving parts to wear
in evenly. Correct break-in will help
to ensure proper performance
and a prolonged engine life. Most
diesel engines notice an increase
in performance and reduction in
fuel consumption aer 150 hours of
breaking in time.
!
CAUTION
Failure in following the break-in
procedure can result in severe
engine damage or reduced engine
life.
NOTE! Run the outboard in water
and in gear with a propeller installed
as follows.
Break in procedure
The OXE Diesel outboard needs
break-in time before being operating
to its full potential. This is due to the
design characteristics of the unit.
Follow the recommendations below:
0-5hrs: Use varied load and rpm
but do not load the engine above
50% throttle and keep maximum
rpm below 2500. Do not stay at one
load and rpm configuration for more
than 30 minutes at a time.
