SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER
ENGINE STARTING
Before starting the outboard:
•  Check fuel and oil levels
Make sure fuel line is connected
DO NOT run the engine indoors or with-
out   adequate    ventilation   or   permit
exhaust  fumes  to accumulate  in  con-
fined  areas.  Engine  exhaust  contains
carbon monoxide which, if inhaled, can
cause serious brain damage or death.
•  Make sure fuel selector switch is in the cor-
rect position for the fuel being used.
Squeeze the fuel primer bulb until firm
Move the tilt/run lever to the RUN position
You MUST supply water to the engine before
starting.  Water pump  damage  can occur  in
just a few seconds.
Be sure  the water  intake screens are  below
the water surface.
Connect  the   clip   to  the   emergency  stop
switch. Snap the lanyard to a secure place on
the  operator’s  clothing   or  life  vest  —  not
where it might tear away instead of activating
the stop switch.
Contact   with  a   rotating   propeller  is
likely   to  result   in  serious   injury   or
death. Assure the engine and prop area
is  clear  of people  and  objects  before
starting  engine  or  operating boat.  Do
not allow anyone near a propeller, even
when the  engine is  off. Blades  can be
sharp and the propeller can continue to
turn even after the engine is off. Always
shut off the engine when near people in
the water.

Be familiar with the waters you are oper-
ating in.  The gearcase of this  outboard
