Mounting battery
Mount the battery holder securely in a dry,
well-ventilated, vibration-free location in the
boat.
WARNING! Do not put flammable
items, or loose heavy or metal objects in
the same compartment as the battery.
Fire, explosion or sparks could result.

Multiple batteries
To connect multiple batteries, such as for
multiple engine configurations or for an ac-
cessory battery, consult your Yamaha dealer
about battery selection and correct wiring.

Propeller selection
Next to selecting an outboard motor, select-
ing the right propeller is one of the most im-
portant purchasing decisions a boater can
make. The type, size, and design of your pro-
peller have a direct impact on acceleration,
top speed, fuel economy, and even engine
life. Yamaha designs and manufactures pro-
pellers for every Yamaha outboard motor
and every application.
Your outboard motor came with a Yamaha
propeller selected to perform well over a
range of applications, but there may be uses
where a different propeller would be more
appropriate.
Your Yamaha dealer can help you select the
right propeller for your boating needs. Select
a propeller that will allow the engine to reach
the middle or upper half of the operating
range at full throttle with the maximum boat-
load. Generally, select a larger pitch propel-
ler for a smaller operating load and a smaller
pitch propeller for a heavier load. If you carry
loads that vary widely, select the propeller
that lets the engine run in the proper range
for your maximum load but remember that
you may need to reduce your throttle setting
to stay within the recommended engine
speed range when carrying lighter loads.
To check the propeller, see page 77.

Counter rotation models
Standard outboard motors rotate clockwise.
Counter rotation models rotate counterclock-
wise. Counter rotation models are typically
used in multiple motor setups and are
marked with an “L” on the gear case above
the anti-ventilation plate.
On counter rotation models, be sure to use a
propeller intended for counterclockwise rota-
tion. These propellers are identified with the
letter “L” after the size indication on the pro-
peller.
WARNING! Never use a standard
propeller with a counter rotation motor,
or a counter rotation propeller with a
standard motor. Otherwise the boat could
go in the direction opposite of that ex-
pected (for example, reverse instead of
forward), which could lead to an accident.
