IMPORTANT: Please follow the instructions below:
• Hydrogen gas is generated when charging a battery. Keep the battery in a
well‑ventilated area during charging. Remove the battery from the boat;
this will protect your hull and interior from damage. Electric sparks,
cigarette smoking, and other sources of fire must be avoided in the
charging area to prevent explosion of the battery.
• The battery fluid (electrolyte) contains sulfuric acid. If electrolyte is spilled
on the skin or clothes, wash with plenty of water and consult a medical
doctor. Always use safety glasses and rubber gloves when handling the
battery.
Propeller Selection
For best all around performance from your outboard/boat combination, select a
propeller that allows the engine to operate in the upper half of the
recommended full throttle RPM range with the boat normally loaded (refer to
General Information
‑
Specifications
). This RPM range allows for better
acceleration while maintaining maximum boat speed.
The propeller supplied with your outboard provides the best overall
performance under average operating conditions.
