NOTICE

Flushing the engine when it is not operating will result in water collecting in the exhaust

system, damaging the engine. Do not supply flush water for more than 15 seconds without

the engine operating.

3. Completely open the water source to provide maximum water supply.
4. Place the remote control in the neutral idle speed position.
5. Immediately start the engine.

NOTICE

Operating the engine out of the water at high speeds creates suction, which can collapse

the water supply hose and overheat the engine. Do not operate the engine above 1400

RPM out of the water and without sufficient cooling water supply.

6. Depress the throttle only button and slowly advance the throttle until the engine reaches

1300 RPM (± 100 RPM).

7. Observe the water temperature gauge to ensure that the engine is operating in the

normal range.

8. Operate the engine with the transmission in neutral for a minimum of 10 minutes.
9.

For  power  packages  operated  in  salty,  brackish,  mineral‑laden  or  polluted  water:

Continue to operate the engine until the discharge water is clear.

10. Slowly return the throttle to idle speed position.

NOTICE

Flushing the engine when it is not operating will result in water collecting in the exhaust

system, damaging the engine. Do not supply flush water for more than 15 seconds without

the engine operating.

11. Stop the engine.
12. Immediately shut off the supply water and remove the flushing attachment.
13. Install the water inlet hose to the seawater inlet of the seawater pump or V‑Drive water

inlet.

14. Tighten hose clamp securely.
15. Attach to the next engine, if equipped, and repeat procedure.

The Boat In the Water

IMPORTANT: Flushing the power package is most effective when performed with the boat

out of the water.
IMPORTANT:  Flushing  is  needed  If  the  engine  package  has  been  operated  in  salty,

brackish, mineral‑laden or polluted water. For best results flushing is recommended after

each outing and before cold weather and extended storage.

NOTICE

Disconnecting the seawater inlet hose will cause water to enter the bilge resulting in

engine damage. Close the seacock before disconnecting the seawater inlet hose. Plug

the seawater inlet hose immediately after disconnecting it.

1.

Models with Walter V-Drive Transmissions:

a.

Close the seacock, if equipped, and then disconnect the seawater inlet hose from

the transmission seawater inlet fitting.
