Outboard start procedure:
1.
Place Kill cord under kill switch (Dinghy driver must always wear the kill cord).
2.
Open vent on fuel tank cap (this vent can stay open, it allows air out but will not allow
water to go in).
The fuel in the tank expands in this climate and if vent is left
closed it can damage the tank and cause a fuel leak.
3.
Few pumps on fuel line bulb.
4.
Make sure outboard is in neutral.
5.
Add some revs using throttle on tiller handle.
6.
Pull on start pull cord.
7.
If the outboard does not start then pull choke and try again, as soon as the outboard start
push choke back in.
