Propeller Selection
WARNING
IMPORTANT: Service electrical components
only while the outboard is NOT running. Be
careful when identifying positive and negative
battery cables and posts.
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.
WARNING
Battery electrolyte is acidic — handle
with care. If electrolyte contacts any
part of the body, immediately flush with
water and seek medical attention.
To select the correct propeller for your boating
application, your boat and outboard MUST be
water tested. See your Dealer for assistance.
Do not use a booster battery and
jumper cables to start the outboard.
Gasoline fumes can cause explosion
and fire, resulting in property damage,
personal injury or death.
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 62.
WARNING
When servicing the propeller, always
shift the outboard to NEUTRAL posi-
tion, turn the key switch OFF, and twist
and remove all spark plug wires so the
outboard cannot be started acciden-
tally.
IMPORTANT: Apply Triple-Guard grease to
the entire propeller shaft before installing the
propeller. At least annually, remove the pro-
peller and check for debris. Clean the shaft
and regrease it before reinstalling a propeller.
