WARNING
：
Overpowering a boat could cause severe instability. Do not install an outboard motor with more
horsepower than the maximum rating on the capacity plate of the boat. If the boat does not have a
capacity plate, consult the boat manufacturer.
Improper mounting of the outboard motor could result in dangerous conditions and injury. For
permanently mounted models, your dealer or other person experienced in proper rigging should
mount the motor. If you are mounting the motor yourself, you should be trained by an experienced
person. For portable models, your dealer or other person experienced in outboard motor mounting
should show you how to mount your motor.
The information presented in this section is intended as reference only. Proper mounting depends
in part on experience and the specific boat and motor combination.
