Lifting the Outboard
Lifting Fixtures
Remove shipping carton.
Remove any banding material used to secure out-
board to shipping palette. The mounting hardware
used to attach the outboard to the shipping frame
is reused to fasten outboard to boat transom.
Use correct Lifting Fixture to lift outboard:
Position lifting tool on flywheel and seat the three
screws completely.
IMPORTANT:
Use only the 1 1/8 in. (short)
screws, P/N 398067, included with the tool to
avoid damage to electronic components under the
flywheel.
Fasten appropriate chain hook to eye of tool.
Carefully hoist outboard with chain and unbolt out-
board mounting brackets from frame.
Before Mounting Outboard to Transom
Some rigging components that attach directly to
the outboard should be assembled before the out-
board is mounted to the boat's transom. Steering
system components and gearcase speedometer
pickup hoses are the most common. Determine
what equipment will be installed prior to mounting
the outboard to the transom or bracket.
Steering Systems
Mechanical Cables
All
Evinrude/Johnson
outboards equipped with tilt
tubes are designed to be compatible with
mechanical steering systems that meet ABYC
Standard P-17. Single-cable mechanical steering
systems can be used on single or dual-outboard
installations if an ABYC-approved steering link is
used.
Dual-cable mechanical steering helps provide firm
steering control at high speeds.
Extend the output end of the steering cable and
lubricate the inner core of cable prior to installa-
tion.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury, make sure the lift-
ing capacity of the hoist is at least twice
the weight of the outboard.
DO NOT allow the lift hook or chain from
the hoist to come in contact with any part
of the engine during lifting.
