Engine Alarms
Most outboards are equipped with several audible engine alarms and in some cases, RPM
reduction to reduce the risk of engine damage. Your engine owner’s manual will familiarize you
with these and their sometimes-distinctive sounds.
Warning : If an engine alarm sounds, shut down the engine until the source of the problem is
determined.
Compass
The compass assists in determining your location by indicating your position relative to magnetic
north. For accuracy, your compass may need to be adjusted to take into account specifics of your
boat and geographic location. Please refer to the material provided with your compass for
magnetic deviation.
Instrument Maintenance
Your instrument faces should be periodically cleaned to keep them free of salt and atmospheric
debris. The ignition switches should be periodically sprayed with a contact cleaner/lubricant to
keep them free of corrosion and dirt. Cleaners with abrasives or harsh chemicals should not be
used on your instruments.

to determine the system is still safe and free of leaks. Special care should be taken when
inspecting joints and connections to ensure they have not loosened due to vibration.
If any odor of gasoline is detected, immediately shut off all engines and electrical devices
until the source and condition of the odor has been determined and eliminated. Have a
fire extinguisher at the ready until the condition has been resolved.
4.2 Fuel Fill
The fuel fill cap is located on the port side and is labeled “GAS”. Tighten the cap until it is snug,
not so tight it cannot be removed at the next fuel stop, or so tight that the rubber o-ring is
damaged, allowing water to enter the system.
4.3 Fuel Vent
This vent is incorporated into the fuel fill cap. The vent allows air to escape from the tank as fuel
is being added. Make sure the fill and vent area is kept free from debris. The vent also allows for
