IMPACT DAMAGE PROTECTION
Your outboard has a shock absorption system
designed to help with stand damage from im-
pact with underwater objects at low to moder-
ate speeds. High speed impacts with rigid
underwater objects like pilings or boulders If you hit any object:
can be beyond the capability of the absorption
system. Such impacts can result in serious
damage to your outboard and injury to boat
occupants from the outboard or its parts en-
tering the boat. Occupants can also be eject-
ed or injured by falling against portions of the
boat as a result of rapid deceleration following
impacts.
When boating in unfamiliar, shallow, or de-
bris-laden waters, seek information on safe
boating areas and navigation hazards from a
reliable local source. Reduce your speed and
keep a sharp lookout!
•
STOP immediately and examine the out-
board for loosening of attaching hardware.
INSPECT for damage to swivel and stern
brackets, and steering components.
EXAMINE the boat for structural damage.
TIGHTEN any loosened hardware.

•
If the collision occurred in the water, proceed
slowly to harbor. Before boating again, have
your Dealer thoroughly inspect all compo-
nents.
WARNING
Failure to inspect for damage after
an accident or striking an object
could result in sudden, unexpected
component failure, loss of boat con-
trol, and personal injury. Unre-
paired damage could reduce your
boat and outboard’s ability to resist
future impacts.
IMPORTANT: Impact damage is NOT cov-
ered by the outboard warranty.
