2011 Evinrude 55 hp MFE MRL MJRL Outboard Boat Motor Owners Manual

SAFETY MEASURES — Installation
and Maintenance
Be familiar with the waters you are oper-
ating in.  The gearcase of this  outboard
extends  below  the  water  surface  and
could  potentially come  in  contact  with
underwater  obstructions.  Contact  with
underwater  obstructions  may  result in
loss of control and personal injury.
The   outboard  must   be   correctly  in-
stalled.  Failure  to  correctly  install  the
outboard could  result  in serious  injury,
death or property damage.  We strongly
recommend that your Dealer install your
outboard to ensure proper installation.
Respect no wake zones,  rights of other
water users and the environment. As the
"skipper" and  owner of  a boat  you are
responsible for  damage to  other  boats
caused by the wake of  your boat. Allow
no one to throw refuse overboard.
Do not overpower your boat by using an
engine that exceeds the horsepower in-
dicated  on  the   boat’s  capacity  plate.
Overpowering  could  result   in  loss  of
control.  If  your  boat  has  no  capacity
plate, contact your  Dealer or the boat’s
manufacturer.
Do not operate your  boat if you are un-
der the influence of drugs or alcohol.
High  performance  boats  have  a  high
power-to-weight ratio. If you are not  ex-
perienced in the operation of a high per-
boat,   do   not    attempt   to
operate one at, or near, its top speed un-
til you have gained that experience.
When  replacement parts  are  required,
use Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or
parts with equivalent characteristics, in-
cluding type, strength and material.  Us-
ing  substandard  parts  could  result  in
injury or product malfunction.
formance
Become  completely   familiar  with   the
control and  operation of  your boat and
outboard before embarking on your first
trip or  taking on a  passenger(s). If  you
have not  had  the opportunity  to do  so
with  your Dealer,  practice  driving in  a
suitable area  and feel  the response  of
each control. Be familiar with all controls
before  applying the  throttle  above idle
speed. As the operator, you  are in con-
trol and responsible for safe operation.
Only perform service  procedures which
are detailed in this Operator’s Guide. At-
tempting to perform maintenance  or re-
pair  on  your  outboard  if  you  are  not
familiar  with   the  correct  service   and
safety procedure  could cause personal
injury or death.  Further information can
be
obtained
from
your
authorized
Evinrude/Johnson  Dealer. In  many  in-
stances proper tools and training are re-
quired   for   certain   service  or   repair
procedures.
Maintain  your  boat and  engine  in  top
condition  at  all  times.   Adhere  to  the
Maintenance Schedule on page 31.
Operate  your  boat  and  outboard  pru-
dently and have  fun. Do not  forget that
all persons must assist other  boaters in
case of emergency.
Prevent injury from contact with rotating
propeller; remove propeller before flush-
ing  or  before  performing  any  mainte-
nance.
