OPERATION
SAFETY INFORMATION
ENGINE STARTING
Refer to the
Pre-Ride Inspection
on page 34.
Complete the inspection before using your
Evinrude E-TEC
outboard.
Before starting the outboard:
• Check fuel and oil levels
• Make sure fuel selector switch is in the cor-
rect position for the fuel being used.
Move the tilt/run lever to the RUN position
You MUST supply water to the
engine before attempting to start it.
Engine damage can occur quickly.
Be sure the water intake screens are below
the water surface.
Connecting the Fuel Hose
Connect the fuel hose to the fuel connector.
If equipped, open vent screw on fuel tank cap.
Squeeze fuel primer bulb, outlet end up, until
firm.
Engine Cut–off Switch
The engine cut–off switch is on the steering
handle. Use of the engine cut–off switch fea-
ture is highly recommended on all boats.
A
DANGER
Serious injury or death can result from
contact with a rotating propeller or mov-
ing boat and outboard.
Blades can be sharp and the propeller
can continue to turn even after the
engine is off.
Assure the engine and prop area is clear
of people and objects before starting
engine or operating the boat.
Be alert of people in the water.
Always shift the outboard to NEUTRAL
and shut off the engine immediately
when your boat is in an area where there
might be people in the water.
A
DANGER
DO NOT run the engine indoors or with-
out adequate ventilation or permit
exhaust fumes to accumulate in con-
fined areas. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide which, if inhaled, can
cause serious brain damage or death.
A
WARNING
The engine cover is a machinery guard.
DO NOT operate your outboard with the
cover off unless you are performing
maintenance or emergency starting, and
then be careful to keep hands, hair, and
clothing clear of all moving parts. Con-
tact with moving parts could cause
injury.
A
WARNING
Be familiar with the waters you are oper-
ating in. The gearcase of this outboard
extends below the water surface and
could potentially come in contact with
underwater obstructions. Contact with
underwater obstructions may result in
loss of control and personal injury.
