BATTERY
Each outboard needs one battery that is:
•
•
•
12-volt, heavy-duty, designated "marine";
Vented/refillable or maintenance-free; and
Rated according to the minimum requirements in
Engine Specifications.
Deep-cycle batteries are suitable IF they meet or
exceed the minimum CCA requirements.
Ask your DEALER about your outboard’s require-
ments before installing longer battery cables, a bat-
tery switch or a battery insulator.
Installation
1.
2.
Large surface star washer
Cover
Read and understand the safety information sup-
plied with your battery BEFORE you begin installa-
tion.
Tighten all connections securely and coat the in-
stallation with Triple-Guard grease.
IMPORTANT: Place the battery in a hold-down
system and in a location that is easily accessible for
frequent checking and recharging.
Place a large-surface star washer over the battery’s
positive (+) post. Stack the RED battery cable from
the motor on the star washer, then install cables
from accessories (if any). Finish the connection
with a hex nut and tighten it firmly with a wrench.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use wing nuts on battery
connections even if they came with the battery.
Wing nuts can loosen and cause errant warning
signals or electrical system damage.
Service
Before servicing the battery or the outboard, re-
move both battery cables from the battery, BLACK
(–) cable first. Keep metal objects from contacting
either battery post.
Connect the motor’s BLACK battery cable to the
battery’s negative (–) post in the same manner.
IMPORTANT: Service electrical components only
while the outboard is NOT running. Be careful when
identifying positive and negative battery cables and
posts. If you touch the wrong post with a battery ca-
ble, even briefly, the charging system will be dam-
aged.
WARNING
Keep the battery connections clean, tight
and insulated to prevent their shorting or
arcing and causing an explosion. If the bat-
tery mounting system does not cover the
connections, install covers. Check often to
see that connections stay clean and tight.
WARNING
Battery electrolyte is acidic — handle with
care. If electrolyte contacts any part of the
body, immediately flush with water and seek
medical attention.
