• Rinse vinyl thoroughly with fresh water to
remove any dust, dirt particles, salt water or
environmental agents before applying cleaning
products. This should be done frequently to
avoid build up of salt water, dirt and other
environmental contaminants.
• Using a soft non-abrasive cloth, wash windows
inside and out with a mild soap and water
solution. Rinse completely with cool water.
• Do not use detergents.
• Use separate clean, soft cloths or sponges for
application of cleaners and polishes. Use a small
amount of cleaner or streaking may occur. If
streaking or a film occurs, follow up application
with a water rinse.
Tempered Glass Windshield
Use commercially available glass cleaners or a
mixture of fresh water and vinegar to clean glass
windows, windshield or port lights. Dry with a soft
terry cloth towel or chamois.
Long-term Storage and Winterization
Long periods of storage, winter lay-up and/or non-
use, common to boats, create unique problems. When
preparing to store a boat for extended periods of two
months or more it is best to make sure that the boat
and its systems are properly conditioned for such
extended periods of non-usage. Follow the guidelines
on winterizing this vessel and the boat’s systems. If
inexperienced with the process of winterization it is
best to hire the services of a professional.

NOTICE
Do not use abrasives, harsh chemicals or metal
scrapers on glass.
Protecting your engine’s vital moving parts from
corrosion caused by freezing of trapped water or
excessive condensation due to climatic changes is
very important. Freezing water in the engine can
cause extensive damage to the internal moving parts.
Internal engine parts can also be affected by rust due
to lack of proper lubrication. To maintain:
• Replace engine oil and filter, running the
engine to drain as much old oil as possible.
• Flush engine with fresh water using flush muffs
or similar device attached to raw water pickup.
• Let all water drain from engine.
•
Fog engine while running. Spray until it stalls.
• Run fuel which has been treated with conditioner
and stabilizer through engine.
• Replace lower unit gear oil. Check for moisture
in old oil, a sign of deteriorating seals.
• Remove prop and grease shaft and threads.
• Treat all grease fittings with manufacturer-
recommended lubricant.
• Lightly lubricate exterior of engine or polish
with a good wax.
• Check engine mount bolts. Ensure they are
torqued to 55 ft/lbs.
• Fill tank to capacity; add fuel stabilizer/
conditioner.
Never start or run an outboard engine, even
momentarily, without having water circulating
through water intakes in gear case. This will
prevent damage to water pump (running dry)
or engine overheating.
!
CAUTION
Engine
Fuel System
Treat tank(s), hoses, and fuel pumps to help prevent
the formation of varnish and gum. Temperature
extremes will cause condensation to accumulate in
an empty or partially-filled fuel tank leading to fuel
contamination and/or premature wear of your system.
