PRE-SEASON CHECK
Remove your outboard from storage and pre-
pare it for a season of reliable service by per-
forming a general check and a few preventive
maintenance procedures.
Examine all loosened or removed hardware.
Replace damaged or missing parts with
Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts
or equiva-
lent. Check the gearcase for leakage. If leak-
age is evident, the gearcase seals should be
replaced. See your Dealer.
IMPORTANT:
Gearcase lubricant is
thick
and clear.
Do not confuse this with engine oil,
which may normally appear on the skeg after
performing the long-term (winterization) stor-
age procedure.
Anticorrosion anodes —
Check condition.

Review your outboard’s warning system self-
test routine. During your preseason start-up,
make sure the warning system self-tests
properly. If it does not, see your Dealer.
Do not run your outboard—
even for a brief start-up—without supply-
ing water to it.
Following
page 21, start the outboard. If the outboard
was auto-winterized, it will emit a puff of
smoke on the first start of the season.

Observe running quality. If poor, refer to
on page 54 or see your
Dealer.
Confirm water pump operation. Water must
flow from the water pump indicator in a steady
stream. If it does not, shut off the outboard
and investigate. Refer to
Stop the outboard and check the fuel system
for leaks.
A
WARNING
Do not use a booster battery and jumper
cables to start the outboard. Gasoline
fumes can cause explosion and fire,
resulting in property damage, personal
injury or death.

Failure to check for fuel leakage could
allow a leak to go undetected, resulting
in fire or explosion.
