ENGINE EXHAUST
The carbon monoxide in exhaust fumes can be hazard-
ous. It is important for you and your passengers to be
aware of the potential safety hazard created by exhaust
fumes. Familiarize yourself with the symptoms of indi-
viduals overcome by carbon monoxide, and most im-
portantly, ways you can protect yourself and your guests.
DO NOT attempt to service any engine with-
out being totally familiar with the safe and
proper service procedures. Do not attempt
to maintain or adjust an engine while it is run-
ning. Certain moving parts are exposed and
failing to shut off the engine can result in se-
rious injury or death.
DO NOT inhale exhaust fumes! Exhaust con-
tains carbon monoxide which is colorless and
odorless. Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas
that is potentially lethal.
Four Winns does not manufacture engines. Because
of the technical nature of the engines, all manufac-
turers of these items require that warranty and service
problems be taken directly to an authorized dealer for
resolution. The Four Winns dealer from whom you
purchased your boat will handle all warranty and ser-
vice matters with the engine manufacturer for you.

all engine manufacturers require their products to be
registered. A registration card is furnished with each
new engine. When selling a Four Winns® boat, the
dealer, along with the purchaser, should complete the
information requested on these cards and return them
to the respective engine manufacturers. Engine reg-
istration cards are provided with the engine and will
usually be found with the owner’s information packet.

Each manufacturer of the various marine power com-
ponents provides an owners information manual with
their product. This publication is included with this
manual. It is important that you read the manual(s)
carefully and become completely familiar with proper
care and operation of the engine system. Be sure to
read the section on winterization. Replacement costs
associated with frozen engine components are quite
substantial.
Vomiting
Collapse
