After engine starts, slide choke knob down gradual-
ly until engine is running smoothly.
IMPORTANT: If your outboard doesn’t react nor-
mally to the starting procedure or it fails to start, re-
fer to Trouble Check Chart.
WARNING
If you tilt the engine and leave it tilted, close
the fuel tank vent screw (turn clockwise)
and close the fuel shut-off valve (turn so
handle is horizontal). Failure to do so might
allow fuel leakage which could lead to
explosion or fire.
After Engine Starts
Check water pump indicator. A steady stream of
water indicates the water pump is working. If a
steady stream of water from the water pump indica-
tor is not visible, stop the engine. Refer to Engine
Overheating.
Start-up (Warm Engine)
Follow the cold engine starting procedure except a
warm engine does not normally require use of the
choke. If your engine fails to start, then use the
choke.
Speed Control
The throttle lever controls engine speed. Raise the
lever to increase speed and lower it to decrease
speed.
