Cleaning the portable fuel tank and its filter
At least once every six months, empty the fuel tank, pour a small quantity of detergent, and clean the tank
thoroughly by shaking it. Flush the inside with fresh water and drain it completely. Repeat the flushing and draining
procedures several times until all the detergent has been removed from inside the tank.
Thoroughly clean the tank filter (located at the end of the suction pipe) with detergent and air dry
Cleaning the engine fuel filter
The engine fuel filter should be cleaned every 20 hours of operation or every month. In some countries, the fuel
quality is poor so cleaning of the filter should be carried out more frequently.
Stop the engine before removing the filter. Keep away from sparks, cigarettes, flames or other sources of ignition.
Remove the fuel hoses and clean the filter with detergent. Air dry the filter then put it back in place making sure the
filter case is tightly screwed.

angular transmition
grease through the hole located at the top of the propeller neck.
Warning! The outboard engine does not include grease in the propeller for safety reasons. Please add angular
transmition grease.
