7. STARTING THE ENGINE
• Make sure the battery switch is
ON before turning ON the
ignition switch. If the battery
switch is OFF when you start the
engine, the buzzer will sound
three times briefly.
Fuel Priming
Hold the priming bulb so that the
outlet end is higher than the inlet (so
that the arrow on the priming bulb
points up), and squeeze it until it feels
firm, indicating that fuel has reached
the outboard motor. Check for leaks.
Do not touch the priming bulb with
the engine running or when tilting
up the outboard motor. The vapor
separator could overflow.
Starting the Engine
(R1 type)
To prevent damage to the outboard
from overheating, never run the
engine with the propeller out of
water.

Fuel Priming
Be careful not to spill any fuel.
Spilled fuel vapor may ignite. If
any fuel is spilled, make sure the
area is dry before starting the
engine.
The exhaust contains poisonous
carbon monoxide. Do not start
the engine in a poor ventilation
area such as in a boat house.
