Installation
The information presented in this section is in-
tended as reference only. It is not possible to
provide complete instructions for every possible
boat and motor combination. Proper mounting
depends in part on experience and the specific
boat and motor combination.
WARNING
•
Overpowering a boat could cause severe
instability. Do not mount an outboard motor
with more horsepower than the maximum
rating on the capacity plate of the boat. If the
boat does not have a capacity plate, consult
the boat manufacturer.
•
Improper
mounting of the outboard
motor could result in hazardous conditions,
such as poor handling, loss of control, or fire
hazards.
Mounting the outboard motor
WARNING
Do not hold the top cowling or tiller handle
when mounting or dismounting the out-
board motor. Otherwise, the outboard motor
could fall.
1.
Be sure to mount the outboard motor
while the boat is on land. If the boat is on the
water, move it to an area on land.
2.
To prevent steering movement, turn the
steering friction adjuster clockwise.
3. Turn the tiller handle 180
°
so that it is
pointing rearward.
4. Hold the carrying handle and the hand-
grip on the front side of the bottom cowling
and lift up the outboard motor using two
people.
