GENERAL INFORMATION

Boater’s Responsibilities

The operator (driver) is responsible for the correct and safe operation

of the boat and safety of its occupants and general public. It is strong-

ly recommended that each operator (driver) read and understand

this entire manual before operating the outboard.

Be sure at least one additional person on board is instructed in the

basics of starting and operating the outboard and boat handling in

case the driver is unable to operate the boat.

obb1

Before Operating Your Outboard

Read this manual carefully. Learn how to operate your outboard

properly. If you have any questions, contact your dealer.

Safety and operating information that is practiced along with using

good common sense can help prevent personal injury and product

damage.

This manual as well as safety labels posted on the outboard use the

following safety alerts to draw your attention to special safety instruc-

tions that should be followed.

DANGER

DANGER – Immediate hazards which WILL result in severe

personal injury or death.

WARNING

WARNING – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result

in severe personal injury or death.

CAUTION

CAUTION – Hazards or unsafe practices which could result in

minor injury or product or property damage.

Boat Horsepower Capacity

1Do not overpower or overload your boat. Most boats will carry a

required capacity plate indicating the maximum acceptable pow-

er and load as determined by the manufacturer following certain

federal guidelines. If in doubt, contact your dealer or the boat

manufacturer.

WARNING

Using an outboard that exceeds the maximum horsepower

limit of a boat can: 1. cause loss of boat control 2. place too

much weight at the transom altering the designed flotation

characteristics of the boat or 3. cause the boat to break apart

particularly around the transom area. Overpowering a boat

can result in serious injury, death, or boat damage.

High-Speed And High-Performance Boat

Operation

2If your outboard is to be used on a high-speed or high-perfor-

mance boat with which you are unfamiliar, we recommend that

you never operate it at its high speed capability without first re-

questing an initial orientation and familiarization demonstration

ride with your dealer or an operator experienced with your boat/

outboard combination. For additional information, read the

“Guide to Hi-Performance Boat Operation” booklet included in

your literature package.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Outboard Remote Control

1The remote control connected to your outboard must be

equipped with a start-in-gear protection device. This prevents the

engine from starting when the outboard is in gear.

WARNING

Avoid serious injury or death from a sudden unexpected ac-

celeration when starting your engine. The design of this out-

board requires that the remote control used with it must have

a built in start-in-gear protection device.

obf1

Remote Steering Notice

2The steering link rod that connects the steering cable to the en-

gine must be fastened utilizing self-locking nuts (a). These self-

locking nuts must never be replaced with common nuts (non

locking) as they will work loose and vibrate off, freeing the link rod

to disengage.

WARNING

Disengagement of a steering link rod can result in the boat tak-

ing a full, sudden, sharp turn. This potentially violent action

can cause occupants to be thrown overboard exposing them

to serious injury or death.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Lanyard Stop Switch

1The purpose of a lanyard stop switch is to turn off the engine

when the operator moves far enough away from the operator’s

position (as in accidental ejection from the operator’s position) to

activate the switch. Tiller handle outboards and some remote

control units are equipped with a lanyard stop switch. A lanyard

stop switch can be installed as an accessory – generally on the

dashboard or side adjacent to the operator’s position.

2The lanyard is a cord usually between 4 and 5 feet (1220 and

1524 mm) in length when stretched out with an element on one

end made to be inserted into the switch and a snap on the other

end for attaching to the operator. The lanyard is coiled to make

its at-rest condition as short as possible so as to minimize the li-

kelihood of lanyard entanglement with nearby objects. It is made

as long as it is in its stretched condition to minimize the likelihood

of accidental activation should the operator choose to move

around in an area close to the normal operator’s position. If it is

desired to have a shorter lanyard, wrap the lanyard around the

operator’s wrist or leg, or tie a knot in the lanyard.

Read the following Safety Information before proceeding.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Lanyard Stop Switch (Continued)

Read the following Safety Information before proceeding.

Important Safety Information: The purpose of a lanyard stop

switch is to stop the engine when the operator moves far enough

away from the operator’s position to activate the switch. This would

occur if the operator accidentally falls overboard or moves within the

boat a sufficient distance from the operator’s position. Accidental

ejections and falls overboard are more likely to occur in certain types

of boats such as low sided inflatables or bass boats, high-perfor-

mance boats and light, sensitive-handling fishing boats operated by

hand-tiller. Accidental ejections and falls overboard are also likely to

occur as a result of poor operating practices such as sitting on the

back of the seat or gunwale at planing speeds, standing at planing

speeds, sitting on elevated fishing boat decks, operating at planing

speeds in shallow or obstacle-infested waters, releasing your grip on

a steering wheel or tiller handle that is pulling in one direction, drink-

ing alcohol or consuming drugs, or daring, high-speed boat maneu-

vers.

While activation of the lanyard stop switch will stop the engine im-

mediately, a boat will continue to coast for some distance depending

upon the velocity and degree of any turn at shut-down. However, the

boat will not complete a full circle. While the boat is coasting, it can

cause injury to anyone in the boat’s path as seriously as the boat

would when under power.

We strongly recommend that other occupants be instructed on prop-

er starting and operating procedures should they be required to oper-

ate the engine in an emergency (e.g. if the operator is accidentally

ejected).

!WARNING

Should the operator fall out of the boat, the possibility of

serious injury or death from being run over by the boat

can be greatly reduced by stopping the engine immediate-

ly. Always properly connect both ends of the stop switch

lanyard – to the stop switch and the operator.
