Upon removal from salt water, leave outboard

Salt Water Lubrication Points

Tiller handle lubrication points (annually)
WEEDY WATER
Weeds block water intakes and may cause
your outboard to overheat. Weeds on the pro-
peller create vibration and reduce boat speed.
When operating in weedy water, run at slow
speeds and in REVERSE frequently to clear
weeds from the propeller and water intakes.
Check the water pump indicator often.
If REVERSE operation does not clear away
weeds, SHUT OFF the engine. Remove
weeds from propeller area and water intakes
before operating at higher speed.
