IMPORTANT SAFETY MESSAGES
This Operator’s  Guide contains  essential in-
formation to help prevent personal injury  and
damage to equipment.  Safety messages ap-
pear throughout  this Guide in  the applicable
section.
All
safety   equipment   and    personal
floatation devices must be in  good con-
dition and suitable for your type of boat.
Always comply with the regulations that
apply to your boat.
WARNING
Remember, gasoline fumes are flamma-
ble and explosive. Always adhere to the
fueling procedure contained  in this Op-
erator’s Guide and those given to you by
the fueling station. Always verify fuel lev-
el before use and during the ride. Apply
the principle of 1/3 fuel to destination, 1/
3 back and  1/3 reserve fuel supply.  Do
not carry spare fuel or flammable liquids
in any storage or engine compartments.
Be  careful! Human  error is  caused  by
many   factors:   carelessness,  fatigue,
overload,  preoccupation,  unfamiliarity
of operator with the product, drugs and
alcohol to name a few.  Damage to your
boat  and  outboard  can  be  fixed  in  a
short   period  of   time,   but   injury   or
death, has a lasting effect.
For your  safety  and the  safety of  oth-
ers, follow all  safety warnings and rec-
ommendations.  Do  not  disregard  any
of  the safety  precautions  and instruc-
tions.
Whenever  running  the engine,  assure
there is  proper  ventilation to  avoid the
accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO),
which is  odorless, colorless, and  taste-
less, and can lead to  unconsciousness,
brain damage, or death if inhaled in suf-
ficient concentrations. CO accumulation
can  occur while  docked,  anchored,  or
underway, and in  many confined areas
such  as the  boat  cabin, cockpit,  swim
platform, and heads. It can be worsened
or caused by weather, mooring and  op-
erating   conditions,  and   other   boats.
Avoid exhaust  fumes from your  engine
or  other boats,  provide  proper ventila-
tion,  shut   off  your  engine   when  not
needed,  and  be  aware  of  the  risk  of
backdrafting and  conditions that create
CO  accumulation.  In   high  concentra-
tions,  CO can  be fatal  within  minutes.
Lower concentrations  are just as  lethal
over long periods of time.
Anyone   operating  your   boat   should
first  read  and  understand  this  Guide
before they operate  your boat and out-
board.
SAFETY MEASURES — General
To fully appreciate the pleasures, enjoy-
ment  and excitement  of  boating  there
are some basic rules that should be ob-
served  and   followed  by   any  boater.
Some rules may be new to you and oth-
ers may be common sense or obvious...
irrespective, take them seriously!
Be sure at least one of your passengers
knows how to handle  your boat in case
of an emergency.
Avoid standing up or shifting weight sud-
denly in light weight boats.
All passengers should know the location
of  emergency  equipment  and  how  to
use it.
Keep your passengers  seated in seats.
The boat’s  bow, gunwale, transom and
seat backs  are not intended  for use as
seats.
Know the  marine traffic  laws and obey
them.
