Using Your E-TEC Outboard
FUEL ECONOMY
Fuel economy can vary depending on boat
load, hull design, and throttle setting. When
boat reaches top speed, throttle back from
FULL SPEED to a lower throttle setting. You
will save fuel with a minimal loss of speed.
POWER TRIM AND TILT
WARNING
Any malfunction of the power trim
and tilt unit could result in loss of
shock absorber protection if an
underwater obstruction is hit. Mal-
function can also result in loss of
reverse thrust capability.
Correct fluid level must be main-
tained to ensure operation of the
impact protection on this unit.
When operating in rough water or
crossing a wake, excessive bow-up
trim may result in the boat’s bow
suddenly rising skyward, possibly
ejecting or otherwise seriously
injuring occupants.

Side mount control
Binnacle mount control
Some boat/outboard/propeller com-
binations may encounter boat
instability and/or high steering
torque when operated at high
speed at or near the outboard’s trim
range limits (full bow-up or bow-
down). Boat stability and steering
torque can also vary due to chang-
ing water conditions. If any adverse
conditions occur, reduce throttle
and/or adjust trim angle to maintain
control. If you experience boat
instability and/or high steering
torque, see your Dealer to correct
these conditions.
Some boats plow, or are difficult to plane,
when operated in the trim’s lowest position. If
your boat handles unsuitably when trimmed
fully bow-down, set the angle adjusting rod or
trim limiter rod to limit the travel of the power
trim. If your outboard is not equipped with this
rod, purchase one from your Dealer.
WARNING
If the bow of the boat plows the
water at high speeds, the boat may
bow steer or spin suddenly, possi-
bly ejecting or otherwise seriously
injuring occupants.
