FLUSHING
4)
5)
Place the remote control lever in NEUTRAL
with the propeller removed.
Start the water — keep pressure between 20
to 40 psi (140 to 300 kPa).
DANGER
DO NOT run the engine indoors or without
adequate ventilation or permit exhaust
fumes to accumulate in confined areas.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide
which, if inhaled, can cause serious brain
damage or death.
Flush your engine with fresh water as soon as pos-
sible after each use in salty, polluted, or brackish
water to minimize the formation of deposits that can
clog cooling passages. Flush the engine on the
trailer or at dockside while it is:
Tilted or vertical, running or stopped.
6)
7)
Start the engine — run it at idle only and
flush it for at least five minutes.
Shut OFF the engine, remove the flusher (if
used), and install the plug. If the plug is also
the water pump indicator, turn it so the water
streams out to the side, where it can be seen
easily from the helm.

WARNING
Prevent injury from contact with rotating
propeller; remove the propeller before
flushing.

Leave the outboard in vertical position long
enough to completely drain the powerhead.
