CLAMPING THE OUTBOARD MOTOR
1) Place the outboard on the transom so
that it is positioned as close to the cen-
ter as possible. Tighten the transom
clamp screws evenly and securely.
Check the clamp-screws for tightness
occasionally during operation of the
motor as they can work loose due to
engine vibration.
w
Loose clamp screws could allow the
motor to move on the transom or fall off
the transom. This could cause loss of
control and serious injury. Make sure the
transom screws are tightened securely.
Occasionally check the screws for tight-
ness during operation.

2) An engine restraint cable or chain
should be used. Attach one end to the
engine restraint cable attachment point
and the other to a secure mounting
point on the boat. Otherwise, the
engine could be completely lost if it
accidentally falls off the transom.
