INSTALLATION AND PREDELIVERY
BOAT RIGGING

Protective Sleeve/Conduit
Make sure all cables, wiring, and hoses have
been identified and fitted to the appropriate
lengths. Refer to
OUTBOARD RIGGING
on p. 46.
Next, bundle the components that route to the out-
board with appropriate shielding, such as an
expandable “flexweave” sleeve or a flexible con-
duit.
Battery Cables
Evinrude outboards are equipped with premium
quality battery cables that should be long enough
for most installations.
When routing battery cables, be sure to:
•
Route cables through the protective sleeve.
•
Use the most direct path to route the battery
cables to the battery or battery switch.
Fuel Hose
The fuel hose may be routed outside of the pro-
tective sleeve or conduit. Electric primers or man-
ual primers may not require this consideration.
Route fuel hoses with enough slack to allow the
primer bulb arrow to point “up” during use.
Install the primer bulb with the arrow pointing in
the direction of fuel flow to the outboard.
Connect the fuel supply hose from the fuel tank to
the fuel supply line at the outboard.
IMPORTANT:
Do not permanently fasten this
connection until the boat's fuel system has been
primed.
