RUNNING-IN PROCEDURE
A SELVA outboard motor is tested completely in our workshop and it is
partially run in a tank. A second test is done by the concessionaire It is
always advisable to complete the running in procedure in the following
way:
. During the first 15 running hours you must use a fuel with oil at
3%.
During the first 3 running hours do not accelerate too much, and during the
following hours you can accelerate properly but only for short periods.
After about 20 hours you have to change entirely the gearbox-oil (see the
greasing sectioning this manual).
This running in procedure will allow you to obtain the best
performance from your motor and longer endurance.
STOPPING PROCEDURE
Emergency stopping procedures.
In an emergency you can stop your motor by pulling the engine
stop switch lanyard.
To start the motor again you have to install again the lanyard's
lock plate on the engine stop switch. Picture No. 64.
Stopping in normal conditions
Place the gear-shift lever in the neutral position " N " (neutral gear);
accelerate light in order to avoid flooding, run the engine again at idling
speed and then push the stop button,(for model with manual start).
Turn the switch key in the anti-clockwise direction, (for model with electric
start). Picture No. 65.
