ting is a quick-disconnect. If not, and the hose is se-

PRE-SEASON SERVICE
Remove your outboard from storage and prepare it
for a season of reliable service by performing a gen-
eral check and a few preventive maintenance pro-
cedures.
Examine  all  loosened  or  removed  hardware  and
any steering, throttle, and shift systems. Replace
damaged or missing parts with Evinrude/Johnson
Genuine Parts or equivalent.
Stop the engine by closing the fuel shut-off valve
and letting the engine run the carburetor out of fuel.
WARNING
Close the fuel tank vent screw.
Failure  to  carefully  reattach  the  outboard
and its control systems with factory-speci-
fied  hardware  can  result  in  sudden,  unex-
pected loss of boat control.
WARNING
Closing  the  fuel  tank  vent  screw  and  fuel
shut-off will prevent explosion and fire due
to gasoline or its vapor escaping from these
normally open places.
With the propeller removed, check the gearcase for
leakage. If leakage  is evident,  the gearcase  seals
should be replaced. See your DEALER.
Anticorrosion anodes  —  Check condition. Refer
to Anticorrosion Anodes.
Ignition, oil and fuel systems  —  Check for mis-
placed leads and damaged or deteriorated parts.
Install the propeller unless you will run the engine
on a flusher for your pre-season servicing. If so, in-
stall the propeller after you shut OFF     the engine
and disconnect the flusher.
Screws, bolts, nuts  —  Tighten
any    that    are
loose.
Propeller  —  Remove and examine. If damaged,
see your DEALER. Clean the propeller shaft and lu-
bricate it. Refer to Propeller.
Refer to Propeller to install the propeller.
WARNING
Lubrication  —  Refer to Lubrication to drain and
refill the gearcase and for lubricating points on the
engine.
Prevent  accidental  contact  with  a  rotating
propeller;  always  remove  it  when  flushing
the engine.
Touch up painted surfaces and wax the engine’s
exterior. Store the engine on the boat (or an engine
stand) in a vertical, self-draining position.
If you cannot store the engine in the recommended
vertical  position,  be  sure  the  cooling  system   is
drained completely.
IMPORTANT:  Never  place  the  gearcase  higher
than the powerhead. Any water remaining in the ex-
haust  passages  can  run  into  the  cylinders   and
cause serious damage.
