NOTE:
The optimum mounting height of the outboard motor is affected by the boat and motor
combination and the desired use. Test runs at a different height can help determine the optimum
mounting height. For further information, consult your “PARSUN” dealer or boat manufacturer.
2.1.2 Clamping the outboard motor
1. Tighten the transom clamp screw evenly and securely.
Occasionally check the clamp screws for tightness
during operation of the outboard motor because
they could become loose due to engine vibration.
CAUTION:
Outboards that use clamp bracket screws alone are INSUFFICIENT to properly and safely
secure the outboard to the Transom. Proper installation of the outboard includes bolting the
engine to the boat through the transom.
WARNING:
Loose clamp screws could allow the outboard motor to fall off or move on the transom. This
could cause loss of control.
Make sure the clamp screws are tightened securely. Occasionally check the screws for
tightness during operation.
