Overheat warning system
The engine is provided with an overheat warning
device Before the engine becomes too hot, the
engine speed fall suddenly (as a matter of fact this
device leaves out the connection of a ignition-coil).
If the overheat warning system operates, proceed as follows:
Check that water runs out of the pilot hole. If OK, keep the engine
at low speed for about five minutes. Then avoid overloading the
engine. If no water or just a little runs out from the pilot hole, stop
the engine, tilt it up, as shown in this manual and check the water
inlets for blockages. If blocked, you must clean them, bring the
motor back to the home position and start it and run it at low
speed for about five minutes; check that water runs out of the
pilot hole.
If after having done all this, you start the engine and no water
runs out of the pilot hole, stop immediately the motor and contact
a dealer.
Always switch the engine off, before tilting it up. Once
you have brought the motor back to the cruising
position, lock the free-lock lever, before starting
sailing again.
Do not keep the engine running, if no water runs out
of the pilot hole.
