PRE-OPERATION CHECK
w
If any item in the pre-operation check is
not working properly, have it inspected
and repaired before operating the out-
board motor. Otherwise, an accident
could occur.
Fuel
Check to be sure you have plenty of fuel
for your trip. Make sure there are no fuel
leaks or gasoline fumes.
Be sure the fuel hose is not being flat-
tened or kinked by objects in the boat,
and that there are no sharp objects near
it.
Controls
Check throttle, shift, and steering for
proper operation before starting the
engine.
The controls should work smoothly, with-
out binding or unusual free play. Look for
loose or damaged connections.
Check operation of the starter and stop
switches when the outboard moter is in
the water.
