SAFETY MEASURES — Installation
and Maintenance
Insist on the use of personal floatation
devices, approved by the U.S. Coast
Guard, by all passengers when boating
conditions are hazardous, and by chil-
dren and nonswimmers at all times.
The outboard must be correctly in-
stalled. Failure to correctly install the
outboard could result in serious injury,
death or property damage. We strongly
recommend that your Dealer install your
outboard to ensure proper installation.
Proceed with caution and at very low
speed in shallow water. Grounding or
abrupt stops may result in personal inju-
ry or property damage. Also be alert for
debris and objects in the water.
Do not overpower your boat by using an
engine that exceeds the horsepower in-
dicated on the boat’s capacity plate.
Overpowering could result in loss of
control. If your boat has no capacity
plate, contact your Dealer or the boat’s
manufacturer.
Be familiar with the waters you are oper-
ating in. The gearcase of this outboard
extends below the water surface and
could potentially come in contact with
underwater obstructions. Contact with
underwater obstructions may result in
loss of control and personal injury.
When replacement parts are required,
use
Evinrude®/Johnson®
Genuine
Respect no wake zones, rights of other
water users and the environment. As the
"skipper" and owner of a boat you are
responsible for damage to other boats
caused by the wake of your boat. Allow
no one to throw refuse overboard.
Parts or parts with equivalent character-
istics, including type, strength and mate-
rial. Using substandard parts could
result in injury or product malfunction.
Only perform service procedures which
are detailed in this Operator’s Guide. At-

pair on your outboard if you are not
familiar with the correct service and
safety procedure could cause personal
injury or death. Further information can

do
not
attempt
to
operate one at, or near, its top speed un-
til you have gained that experience.
Become completely familiar with the
control and operation of your boat and
outboard before embarking on your first
trip or taking on a passenger(s). If you
have not had the opportunity to do so
with your Dealer, practice driving in a
suitable area and feel the response of
each control. Be familiar with all controls
before applying the throttle above idle
speed. As the operator, you are in con-
trol and responsible for safe operation.
Maintain your boat and engine in top
condition at all times. Adhere to the
Maintenance Schedule on page 37.
Operate your boat and outboard pru-
dently and have fun. Do not forget that
all persons must assist other boaters in
case of emergency.
Prevent injury from contact with rotating
propeller; remove propeller before flush-
ing or before performing any mainte-
nance.
