Most boats are rated and certified
in terms of their maximum allowable
horsepower, as shown on the boat’s
certification plate. Do not equip your boat
with an outboard motor that exceeds this
limit. If in doubt, contact your dealer.
Do not operate the outboard motor until it
has been securely mounted on the boat
in accordance with the instructions below.
1. Mounting the outboard motor on boat
INSTALLATION
●
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 surface on the driveshaft
housing. If the water surface is near
the bottom cowling, in high waves,
water may enter the engine cylinders.
●
Incorrect outboard motor mounting
height or existence of underwater
object(s), such as hull bottom
design, bottom surface conditions or
underwater accessories, can cause
production of water spray possibly
reaching the engine through an
opening of the bottom cowling
during cruising. Exposing engine
to such conditions for extended
periods can lead to severe engine
damage.
