   Using Your E-TEC Outboard
IMPACT DAMAGE PROTECTION
boat and outboard  can be seriously dam-
aged.
Your outboard has a shock absorption system
designed to help with stand damage from im-
pact with underwater objects at low to moder-
ate  speeds.  High  speed  impacts with  rigid
underwater  objects  like  pilings  or  boulders
can be beyond the capability of the absorption
system.  Such impacts  can result  in  serious
damage to  your outboard  and injury to  boat
occupants from the  outboard or its  parts en-
tering the boat. Occupants can also be eject-
ed or injured by falling against portions of the
boat as a result of rapid deceleration following
impacts.
When  boating in  unfamiliar, shallow,  or  de-
bris-laden  waters, seek  information on  safe
boating areas and navigation hazards from  a
reliable local source. Reduce your speed and
keep a sharp lookout!
If you hit any object:
•  STOP immediately  and  examine  the  out-
board for loosening of attaching hardware.
IMPORTANT:  Impact damage  is  NOT cov-
ered by the outboard warranty.
INSPECT for  damage  to swivel  and stern
brackets, and steering components.
EXAMINE the boat for structural damage.
TIGHTEN any loosened hardware.
If the collision occurred in the water, proceed
slowly to harbor.  Before boating again,  have
your  Dealer  thoroughly  inspect  all  compo-
nents.
WARNING
Failure  to  inspect  for  damage  after
an  accident   or  striking  an   object
could result in sudden, unexpected
component failure, loss of boat con-
trol,   and    personal   injury.    Unre-
paired  damage  could  reduce   your
boat and outboard’s ability to resist
future impacts.
NOTICE
