BEFORE OPERATION
Safety Inspection
• Before each use, look around and
underneath the engine for signs of
oil or gasoline leaks.
• If you are using the portable fuel
tank, make sure it is in good
condition and properly secured in
• Check that the fuel hose is
undamaged and properly connected
• Wipe up any spills before starting
the engine.
• Check the stern bracket to be sure
the outboard motor is securely
installed.
• Check that all controls are
operating properly.
• Replace any damaged parts.
• Check that all fasteners are in place
and securely tightened.
• Check the emergency stop switch
for proper operation. Start the
engine (p. 47, 49 or 54). Make sure
the engine stops by pulling the
emergency stop switch clip from
the emergency stop switch.
Maintenance Inspection
• Check the engine oil level (p. 72).
Running the engine with a low oil
level can cause engine damage.
Overfilling the engine can cause
the engine to smoke or have oil
leaks which can cause engine
damage.
• Check to be sure the propeller is
undamaged and the castle nut is
secured with the cotter pin (p. 86).
• Check that the stern bracket anode
and the trim tab are securely
attached and are not excessively
worn. The anodes help to protect
the outboard motor from corrosion.
• Make sure the tool kit and
emergency starter rope are onboard
(p. 67). Replace any missing items.
• Check the fuel level in the fuel tank
• Check that the battery fluid is
between the upper and lower
levels, and the battery leads are
connected securely.
