z Before beginning the running test, check
that the boat with maximum capacity
loading floats on the water in a proper
attitude. Check the position of water sur-
face on the driveshaft housing. If the
water surface is near the bottom cowling,
in high waves, water may enter the engine
cylinders.
z Incorrect outboard motor mounting
height or existence of underwater
object(s), such as hull bottom design,
bottom surface conditions or underwater
accessories, can cause water spray possi-
bly reaching the engine through an open-
ing of the bottom cowling during cruising.
Exposing the engine to such conditions for
extended periods can lead to severe
engine damage.
z Tighten the clamp screws sufficiency,
otherwise falling down of outboard could
be happened.
