Boater's Responsibilities
The operator (driver) is responsible for the correct and safe operation of the
boat and the safety of its occupants and general public. It is strongly
recommended that each operator read and understand this entire manual
before operating the outboard.
Be sure that at least one additional person onboard is instructed in the basics
of starting and operating the outboard and boat handling in case the driver is
unable to operate the boat.
Before Operating Your Outboard
Read this manual carefully. Learn how to operate your outboard properly. If you
have any questions, contact your dealer.
Safety and operating information that is practiced, along with using good
common sense, can help prevent personal injury and product damage.

safety alerts to draw your attention to special safety instructions that should be
