X OPERATION
The outboard’s shock absorption system EMERGENCY STARTING
does not work while operating in reverse. If
you back into an object, either in the water or
while trailering, your boat and outboard can
be seriously damaged.
If the starter fails, your engine can be started
using a 1/4 in (6 mm) cord about 4 ft. (1.2 m)
long.
WARNING
Move
the shift lever to NEUTRAL
before performing emergency starting
procedures. Failure to do so may result
in unexpected boat movement.
The engine cover is a machinery guard.
To prevent injury from moving engine
components, keep hands, clothes, and
hair clear of powerhead.
Prevent electric shock by keeping clear
of the ignition coils and spark plug
leads when the outboard is being
started or is running. Shock can cause
serious personal injury under certain
conditions.
If you hit any object:
•
STOP immediately and examine the out-
board for loosening of attaching hardware.
INSPECT for damage to swivel and stern
brackets, and steering components.
•
DO NOT turn flywheel by hand. Use
starter cord only.
•
•
If the collision occurred in the water, proceed
slowly to harbor. Before boating again, have
your Dealer thoroughly inspect all compo-
nents.
EXAMINE the boat for structural damage.
TIGHTEN any loosened hardware.
Be sure:
Key switch is OFF.
Engine is in normal operating position.
Shift lever is in NEUTRAL.

Release port and starboard side engine
cover latches downward. Pull up on the tilt
handle to release the engine cover seal
and remove the engine cover.
WARNING
Failure to inspect for damage after an
accident or striking an object could
result in sudden, unexpected compo-
nent failure, loss of boat control, and
personal injury. Unrepaired damage
could reduce your boat and outboard’s
ability to resist future impacts.
