WARNING
Left-hand propellers are considered counter
rotation propellers. When propelling a boat
forward, the propeller rotates in a left-hand
(counterclockwise) direction as viewed from
the rear.
Be alert of people in the water. Always
shift the outboard to NEUTRAL and
shut off the engine immediately when
your boat is in an area where there
might be people in the water. Serious
injury or death can result from contact-
ing a rotating propeller or moving boat
and outboard.
To select the correct propeller for your boating
application, your boat and outboard MUST be
water tested. See your Dealer for assistance.
IMPORTANT: The correct propeller for your
boat, under normal load conditions, will allow
the engine to run near the midpoint of the
RPM operating range at full throttle. Refer to
Specifications on page 47.
