Our First Words to the Owner/Operator
This Operator’s Guide is an essential part of your Evinrude ® outboard. It contains pertinent information
which, if followed, will provide you with a thorough understanding needed for proper operation, mainte-
nance, care and above all safety!
The safety section of this Guide comes first because it is our first priority and it should be yours too. It is
strongly recommended that you read this Guide from front cover to rear cover. Following this recommen-
dation will assure the completeness of the information that is essential to your safety, the safety of any
passengers and other boaters. An Operator’s Readiness Test has been prepared on the last page of this
Guide.
Be safe! All passengers should be familiar with the proper operation of your boat and
Evinrude outboard.
Be certain they fully understand and respect the controls and operation. Each operator is responsible for
the safety of all passengers and other boaters. Please make safety your first priority and complete a boat-
ing safety course through your local Coast Guard, Power Squadron, Red Cross or State Boating Law
Agency.
The pleasures of owning and operating an Evinrude outboard can be significant. We strongly believe the
rewards for following our recommendations will be worthwhile. Remember that YOU are the key to safety.
Good safety practices not only protect you but also protect the people around you.
Having fun is what it’s all about and, with your cooperation, the pertinent information in this Guide can en-
sure a safe and enjoyable experience.
Enjoy the great outdoors on the water...

WARNING
Be careful! Human error is caused by many factors: carelessness, fatigue, overload, preoccu-
pation, unfamiliarity of operator with the product, drugs and alcohol to name a few. Damage to
your boat and outboard can be fixed in a short period of time, but injury or death, has a lasting
effect.
For your safety and the safety of others, read this Guide from cover to cover and follow all
safety warnings and recommendations. Do not disregard any of the safety precautions and
instructions.
Anyone operating your boat should first read and understand this Guide before they operate
your boat and motor.
