CAUTION:
WARNING
Improper mounting  of the  outboard mo-
tor could  result in hazardous  conditions
such as poor handling, loss of control, or
fire hazards. Observe the following:
Incorrect  engine height  or  obstructions
to smooth water flow (such as the design
or condition  of the  boat, or  accessories
such as transom  ladders or depth finder
transducers)  can  create  airborne  water
spray while  the boat  is cruising.  Severe
engine damage may result if the motor is
operated continuously in the presence of
airborne water spray.
q
For permanently mounted models, your
dealer or  other person  experienced in
proper rigging should mount the motor.
If you are mounting the motor yourself,
you  should  be  trained  by  an  experi-
enced person.
NOTE:
q For portable models, your dealer or oth-
er  person  experienced in  proper  out-
board  motor   mounting  should  show
you how to mount your motor.
During water testing  check the buoyancy of
the  boat,  at  rest,  with  its  maximum  load.
Check that  the static water level  on the ex-
haust housing is low  enough to prevent wa-
ter  entry  into the  powerhead,  when  water
rises due to waves when the outboard is not
running.
Mount the outboard motor on the center line
(keel line)  of the  boat, and  ensure that  the
boat  itself is  well  balanced. Otherwise  the
boat will be hard  to steer. For boats without
a  keel or  which  are  asymmetrical, consult
your dealer.

ity plate of the boat. If the boat does not
have a capacity plate,  consult the boat
manufacturer.
