Procedure
3.
Garden hose
1.
Disconnect and remove the battery from
the  boat.  Always  disconnect the  black
negative cable first to prevent  the risk of
shorting.
Clean the  battery casing  and terminals.
Fill each cell  to the upper level  with dis-
tilled water.
Store the battery  on a level surface  in a
cool, dry,  well-ventilated place out of  di-
rect sunlight.
Once a month, check the specific gravity
of  the  electrolyte  and  recharge  as  re-
quired to prolong battery life.
2.
Screw the garden hose connector onto a
garden  hose  which  is  connected  to  a
fresh water supply.
With the engine off, turn on the water tap
and let the water  flush through the cool-
ing passages for about 15 minutes. Turn
off the water  and disconnect the garden
hose.
When flushing  is complete,  reinstall the
garden hose  connector on the  fitting on
the bottom cowling. Tighten  the connec-
tor securely.

CAUTION:
Do not  leave the  garden hose  connector
loose on the  bottom cowling fitting or  let
the hose  hang free during  normal opera-
tion. Water  will leak out of  the connector
instead of  cooling the engine,  which can
cause  serious  overheating. Be  sure  the
connector is tightened securely on the fit-
ting after flushing the engine.
Perform this  procedure  right after  operation
for the most thorough flushing.
1.
After shutting off the engine, unscrew the
garden hose connector from the fitting on
the bottom cowling.
NOTE:
q
When flushing the  engine with the  boat in
the water, tilting up the outboard motor until
it is completely out of the water will achieve
better results.
