Fuel System
Perform running checks of the fuel system by fol-
lowing these steps:
•
Squeeze fuel primer bulb until hard or activate
electric primer. Observe all fuel hoses and con-
nections. Repair any leaks.
•
Start outboard. Inspect all hoses and connec-
tions. Repair any leaks or misrouted hoses
immediately.
Emergency Stop / Key Switch
Check emergency stop function. With outboard
running at IDLE, pull safety lanyard from emer-
gency stop switch. Outboard must stop immedi-
ately.
Remote Control Operation
Make sure that control can be easily moved into
all gear and throttle settings. Do not shift remote
control when outboard is not running.
Start-In-Gear Prevention
Start outboard and shift remote control lever to
FORWARD.
Turn outboard OFF while remote control is in
FORWARD.
Attempt restarting the outboard. Outboard should
not start.
Pull remote control lever back to NEUTRAL and
restart outboard.
Shift remote control lever to REVERSE. Turn out-
board OFF while remote control is in REVERSE.
Attempt restarting the outboard. Outboard should
not start.
WARNING
DO NOT run outboard without a water sup-
ply to the outboard’s cooling system. Cool-
ing system and/or powerhead damage
could occur.
DANGER
DO NOT run the engine indoors or without
adequate ventilation or permit exhaust
fumes to accumulate in confined areas.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide
which, if inhaled, can cause serious brain
damage or death.
DANGER
Contact with a rotating propeller is likely to
result in serious injury or death. Assure
the engine and prop area is clear of people
and objects before starting engine or oper-
ating boat. Do not allow anyone near a pro-
peller, even when the engine is off. Blades
can be sharp and the propeller can con-
tinue to turn even after the engine is off.
WARNING
Make certain that the starter will not oper-
ate when the outboard is in gear. The start-
in-gear prevention feature is required by
the United States Coast Guard to help pre-
vent personal injuries.
