Dear Boating Enthusiast,

Congratulations on your purchase of our industry-leading Evinrude E-TEC outboard! Your purchase comes with the full commitment and backing of the BRP Outboard Engine team. We know your Evinrude E-TEC outboard will provide you with years of reliable use, and we hope you will enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed designing and building this innovative product.

You can be proud you purchased an Evinrude E-TEC outboard with the following benefits.

EASY TO OWN & OPERATE

With your Evinrude E-TEC outboard there is no more time wasted in the shop. In fact, you only have to bring your Evinrude E-TEC outboard in for dealer scheduled maintenance every 300 hours or every three years of normal recreational use. That's three trips to the shop in nine years… four trips in twelve years… five trips in fifteen years… you get the picture! And if that is not enough, with your new outboard you will have zero oil changes, absolutely no break-in period, and a simple winterization process that can be done at the boat ramp or in your driveway. We are proud of how easy we have made it for you to own this outboard. Hopefully it means you will be spending more time on the water each year.

POWER & PERFORMANCE

Evinrude E-TEC outboards have been engineered to outperform anything on the water—acceleration, top-end speed, any size, any horsepower, across the line. And for your buddies who own a four-stroke? Well, they cannot touch our power-to-weight ratio. And you can tell them that no four-stroke comes close to the pure power and torque of an Evinrude E-TEC outboard.

DURABILITY / QUALITY / RELIABILITY

Fewer parts. Fewer problems. Every Evinrude E-TEC outboard component is tested and retested for maximum performance and longer life. Parts are bigger and stronger to work harder and last longer.

CLEAN & QUIET

Evinrude E-TEC outboards are designed to comply with the strictest emissions regulations. Even the sealed fuel system minimizes evaporative emissions. And thanks to the sophisticated, acoustically tuned air intake and exhaust systems, you will not be filling the air with a lot of noise either.

BRP is proud you have purchased this technology-leading Evinrude E-TEC outboard engine. We thank you for your business and wish you many years of enjoyable use.

Happy Boating,

Yves Leduc Vice President, General Manager

IMPORTANT SAFETY MESSAGES

This Operator’s Guide contains essential information to help prevent personal injury and damage to equipment. Safety messages appear throughout this Guide in the applicable section.

Be careful! Human error is caused by many factors: carelessness, fatigue, overload, preoccupation, unfamiliarity of operator with the product, drugs and alcohol to name a few. Damage to your boat and outboard can be fixed in a short period of time, but injury or death, has a lasting effect.

WARNING

For your safety and the safety of others, follow all safety warnings and recommendations. Do not disregard any of the safety precautions and instructions.

Anyone operating your boat should first read and understand this guide before they operate your boat and outboard.

SAFETY MEASURES — General

To fully appreciate the pleasures, enjoyment and excitement of boating there are some basic rules that should be observed and followed by any boater. Some rules may be new to you and others may be common sense or obvious... irrespective, take them seriously!

Be sure at least one of your passengers knows how to handle your boat in case of an emergency.

Remember, gasoline fumes are flammable and explosive. Always adhere to the fueling procedure contained in this Operator’s Guide and those given to you by the fueling station. Always verify fuel level before use and during the ride. Apply the principle of 1/3 fuel to destination, 1/ 3 back and 1/3 reserve fuel supply. Do not carry spare fuel or flammable liquids in any storage or engine compartments.

Whenever running the engine, assure there is proper ventilation to avoid the accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO), which is odorless, colorless, and tasteless, and can lead to unconsciousness, brain damage, or death if inhaled in sufficient concentrations. CO accumulation can occur while docked, anchored, or underway, and in many confined areas such as the boat cabin, cockpit, swim platform, and heads. It can be worsened or caused by weather, mooring and operating conditions, and other boats. Avoid exhaust fumes from your engine or other boats, provide proper ventilation, shut off your engine when not needed, and be aware of the risk of backdrafting and conditions that create CO accumulation. In high concentrations, CO can be fatal within minutes. Lower concentrations are just as lethal over long periods of time.

Avoid standing up or shifting weight suddenly in light weight boats.

Keep your passengers seated in seats. The boat’s bow, gunwale, transom and seat backs are not intended for use as seats.

All passengers should know the location of emergency equipment and how to use it.

Know the marine traffic laws and obey them.

All safety equipment and personal floatation devices must be in good condition and suitable for your type of boat. Always comply with the regulations that apply to your boat.

Insist on the use of personal floatation devices, approved by the U.S. Coast Guard, by all passengers when boating conditions are hazardous, and by children and nonswimmers at all times.

Proceed with caution and at very low speed in shallow water. Grounding or abrupt stops may result in personal injury or property damage. Also be alert for debris and objects in the water.

Page 10

Insist on the use of personal floatation devices, approved by the U.S. Coast Guard, by all passengers when boating conditions are hazardous, and by children and nonswimmers at all times.

Proceed with caution and at very low speed in shallow water. Grounding or abrupt stops may result in personal injury or property damage. Also be alert for debris and objects in the water.

Be familiar with the waters you are operating in. The gearcase of this outboard extends below the water surface and could potentially come in contact with underwater obstructions. Contact with underwater obstructions may result in loss of control and personal injury.

Respect no wake zones, rights of other water users and the environment. As the "skipper" and owner of a boat you are responsible for damage to other boats caused by the wake of your boat. Allow no one to throw refuse overboard.

Do not operate your boat if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

High performance boats have a high power-to-weight ratio. If you are not experienced in the operation of a high performance boat, do not attempt to operate one at, or near, its top speed until you have gained that experience.

Become completely familiar with the control and operation of your boat and outboard before embarking on your first trip or taking on a passenger(s). If you have not had the opportunity to do so with your Dealer, practice driving in a suitable area and feel the response of each control. Be familiar with all controls before applying the throttle above idle speed. As the operator, you are in control and responsible for safe operation.

SAFETY MEASURES — Installation and Maintenance

The outboard must be correctly installed. Failure to correctly install the outboard could result in serious injury, death or property damage. We strongly recommend that your Dealer install your outboard to ensure proper installation.

Do not overpower your boat by using an engine that exceeds the horsepower indicated on the boat’s capacity plate. Overpowering could result in loss of control. If your boat has no capacity plate, contact your Dealer or the boat’s manufacturer.

When replacement parts are required, use Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or parts with equivalent characteristics, including type, strength and material. Using substandard parts could result in injury or product malfunction.

Only perform service procedures which are detailed in this Operator’s Guide. Attempting to perform maintenance or repair on your outboard if you are not familiar with the correct service and safety procedure could cause personal injury or death. Further information can be obtained from your authorized Evinrude/Johnson Dealer. In many instances proper tools and training are required for certain service or repair procedures.

Maintain your boat and engine in top condition at all times. Adhere to the Maintenance Schedule on page 37.

Operate your boat and outboard prudently and have fun. Do not forget that all persons must assist other boaters in case of emergency.

Prevent injury from contact with rotating propeller; remove propeller before flushing or before performing any maintenance.

OIL AND FUEL

OIL REQUIREMENTS OILING SYSTEM

Evinrude/Johnson Brand Oils

Evinrude/Johnson outboard oils are formulated to give best engine performance while controlling piston and combustion chamber deposits, providing superior lubrication, and ensuring maximum spark plug life.

The following outboard oils are recommended for use in your Evinrude E-TEC outboard:

• Evinrude/Johnson XD100;

• Evinrude/Johnson XD50; or

• Evinrude/Johnson XD30.

Evinrude/Johnson XD100 Oil

Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil is preferred

for your Evinrude E-TEC outboard. This synthetic formula oil provides uncompromised lubrication and superior performance, even in extreme conditions—especially in cold temperatures down to 0°F (-17°C).

If requested, an authorized dealer can program your Evinrude E-TEC outboard EMM for the exclusive use of Evinrude/Johnson

XD100. Only an authorized Evinrude deal- er can program your outboard for this optional benefit.

Oil consumption is reduced if the outboard is programmed for exclusive use of Evinrude/ Johnson XD100 as compared to using a conventional oil.

IMPORTANT: If your EMM has been programmed for Evinrude/Johnson XD100, DO NOT use any other oil unless in an emer-

gency. If Evinrude/Johnson XD100 is temporarily unavailable, a one-time-only use of an oil that meets NMMA TC-W3 certification standards is allowed. If you discontinue using Evinrude/Johnson XD100, you MUST first return to your Dealer to have the EMM reprogrammed back to the original factory setting.

If the “LOW OIL” warning light illuminates, you have approximately five hours of normal operation before running out of oil. Refill the oil tank at next convenient opportunity.

Always “top off” your oil tank prior to prolonged usage or long trips.

New outboards are programmed to use additional oil during the first two hours of operation above 2000 RPM.

Refer to Engine Overheating on page 29.

NOTICE

under 32°F (0°C), Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil must be used.

Always keep an extra supply of outboard oil in the boat. Refer to Oil Requirements on page

16. If you run the oil tank empty, you MUST refill

the oil tank and prime the oil system before using the engine. Refer to Filling the Oil

Tank on page 17 and Priming the Oil System on page 16.

When operating in conditions

Priming the Oil System

The oiling system MUST be primed before using the outboard if:

• The outboard is new (Oil system MUST be primed);

• You run completely out of oil; or

• The outboard is laid down for transportation or storage.

Prime the oiling system by performing Long- Term Storage (Winterization) on page 40.

Other Oils

If Evinrude/Johnson brand oils are not available, you must use an oil that meets NMMA TC-W3 certification standards.

IMPORTANT: Failure to follow oil specifications could void the engine warranty if a lubrication-related failure occurs.

Page 19

X OIL AND FUEL

Filling the Oil Tank

Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive under certain conditions. Follow the instructions in this section explicitly. Improper handling of fuel could result in property damage, serious injury or death.

Leaking fuel is a fire and explosion hazard. All parts in the fuel system should be inspected frequently and replaced if signs of deterioration or leakage are found. Inspect the fuel system each time you refuel, each time you remove the engine cover and annually.

Follow these instructions to ensure safety when handing fuel:

• Always turn off the engine before fueling.

• Never permit anyone other than an adult to refill the fuel tank.

• Do not fill the fuel tank all the way to the top or fuel may overflow when it expands due to heating by the sun.

• Remove portable fuel tanks from the boat before fueling.

• Always wipe off any fuel spillage.

• Do not smoke, or allow open flames, or sparks or use electrical devices such as cellular phones in the vicinity of a fuel leak or while fueling.

• Always work in a well ventilated area.

NOTICE

Gasoline will oxidize; the result is loss of octane, volatile compounds, and the production of gum and varnish deposits which can degrade the fuel system.

Always use fresh gasoline.

Alcohol Fuels

Your outboard has been designed to operate using the specified fuels; however, be aware of the following:

• The boat’s fuel system may have different requirements regarding the use of alcohol fuels. Refer to the boat’s owner guide.

• Alcohol blended fuel may cause engine performance problems

NOTICE

moisture that can cause corrosion of metallic parts in the fuel system.

Using alcohol-extended fuels is acceptable ONLY if the alcohol content does not exceed:

• 10% ethanol by volume; or

• 5% methanol with 5% cosolvents by volume.

Alcohol attracts and holds

FUEL ADDITIVES

The only fuel additives approved for use in your Evinrude E-TEC outboard are:

• Evinrude/Johnson 2+4 Fuel Conditioner

• Evinrude/Johnson Fuel System Cleaner

Use of other fuel additives can result in poor performance or engine damage.

Evinrude/Johnson 2+4 Fuel Conditioner will help prevent gum and varnish deposits from forming in fuel system components and will remove moisture from the fuel system. It can be used continuously and should be used during any period when the outboard is not being operated on a regular basis. Its use will reduce spark plug fouling, fuel system icing, and fuel system component deterioration.

Evinrude/Johnson Fuel System Cleaner will help keep fuel injectors in optimal operating condition.

Minimum Octane

Your outboard is certified to operate on unleaded automotive gasoline with an octane rating equal to or higher than:

• 87 (R+M)/2 AKI — Inside the U.S.

• 90 RON — Outside the U.S. Using unleaded gasoline that contains methyl

tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) is acceptable ONLY if the MTBE content does not exceed 15% by volume.

FUEL SYSTEM INFORMATION

WARNING

If engine is equipped with a quickdisconnect fuel hose, you MUST disconnect the fuel hose from the engine and the fuel tank to prevent fuel leaks:

• Whenever the engine is NOT being used

• Whenever the engine is being trailered

• Whenever the engine is in storage

NOTE: A small amount of fuel may be released when the fuel connector is disconnected.

Store portable fuel tanks in well-ventilated areas, away from heat sources and open flames. Close the vent screw of the fuel tank cap, if equipped, to prevent escape of fuel or fuel vapors which could accidentally ignite. Do not allow disconnected fuel hoses to leak fuel.

Fuel Connector

If equipped, disconnect fuel hose connectors from the engine’s fuel connector when the engine is not in use.

1. Fuel connector

IMPORTANT: Fuel distribution hoses in the boat must deliver fuel at a specific flow rate. Minimum inside diameter of fuel hoses must be 5/16 in. (7.9 mm).

Fuel systems with built-in tanks, particularly those that include antisiphon valves and filter/ primer units, may have restrictions not allowing the engine fuel pump to deliver sufficient fuel under all conditions. This can result in a loss of performance. If a performance problem exists, see your Dealer.

Fuel System Priming - Rope Start Models

If the outboard is run out of fuel, refill the fuel tank and squeeze the primer bulb until firm. Prime the electric fuel pump by first removing the emergency stop switch clip and then pulling the rope at least two times. This will cause the fuel pump to fill the injectors. Replace the emergency stop switch clip and follow the normal starting procedure.

Trim Angle Adjustment

WARNING

Boat stability and steering torque can vary due to changing water conditions. If any adverse conditions occur, reduce throttle and/or adjust tilt angle to maintain control. If you experience boat instability and/or high steering torque, see your Dealer to correct these conditions.

If the bow of the boat plows the water at high speeds, the boat may bow steer or spin suddenly, possibly ejecting or otherwise seriously injuring occupants.

Trim angle adjustment is accomplished by changing the location of the tilt pin. Run the boat in the water to determine the best trim angle.

IMPORTANT: Weight distribution can affect the performance of the boat. Distribute weight evenly in the boat before adjusting trim angle.

The boat should accelerate quickly, plane easily, and run parallel to the surface of the water at high speeds.

If tilt pin is positioned too LOW the front of boat will be DOWN and push water. If tilt pin is positioned too HIGH the front of boat will be UP and bounce. To adjust the trim angle:

• Place the outboard in full TILT position. Refer to Tilt Support Bracket on page 26.

• Turn the angle adjusting rod handle up. Push in against spring so retainer will release, then slide rod assembly all the way out.

• Insert tilt pin in desire position. Make sure the tilt pin passes through both stern brackets.

IMPACT DAMAGE PROTECTION

Your outboard has a shock absorption system designed to help with stand damage from impact with underwater objects at low to moderate speeds. High speed impacts with rigid underwater objects like pilings or boulders can be beyond the capability of the absorption system. Such impacts can result in serious damage to your outboard and injury to boat occupants from the outboard or its parts entering the boat. Occupants can also be ejected or injured by falling against portions of the boat as a result of rapid deceleration following impacts.

When boating in unfamiliar, shallow, or debris-laden waters, seek information on safe boating areas and navigation hazards from a reliable local source. Reduce your speed and keep a sharp lookout!

IMPORTANT: Impact damage is NOT covered by the outboard warranty.

boat and outboard can be seriously damaged.

If you hit any object:

• STOP immediately and examine the outboard for loosening of attaching hardware.

• INSPECT for damage to swivel and stern brackets, and steering components.

• EXAMINE the boat for structural damage.

• TIGHTEN any loosened hardware.

If the collision occurred in the water, proceed slowly to harbor. Before boating again, have your Dealer thoroughly inspect all components.

ENGINE OVERHEATING

X OPERATION

NOTICE

Do not run your outboard— even for a brief start-up—without supplying water to it. Refer to Flushing on page

38.

While boating, the outboard’s water intakes must stay completely submerged and unobstructed. Observe proper transom height and tilt angle. While the outboard is running, the outboard’s water pump indicator must discharge a steady stream of water. Check the indicator often, especially when operating in weeds, muddy and debris-laden water, and at extreme trim angles.

To RESET the system:

• The engine must be shut off and the cooling temperature restored.

IF the S.A.F.E. mode activates and the stream from the water pump indicator becomes intermittent or stops, reduce speed to idle and:

1) Shift to NEUTRAL.

2) SHUT OFF the engine.

3) Tilt the outboard up.

4) Clean the intake screens of any blockage.

5) Clean the water pump indicator of any

blockage.

6) Lower the outboard.

7) Restart the engine and run at idle.

IF cleaning the screens and indicator does not restore the water pump indicator’s steady

discharge, the engine will operate only in “get home” mode. Return to harbor immediately. See your Dealer.

IF cleaning the screens and indicator does restore the water pump indicator’s steady discharge, you might have to run for two minutes in NEUTRAL to allow the engine to cool.

1. Water intake screens

2. Water pump indicator

If the engine overheats, the S.A.F.E. (Speed Adjusting Failsafe Electronics) mode will immediately limit the engine’s speed to 1200 RPM. If the engine was running faster than 1200 RPM when the S.A.F.E. mode activated, it will shake noticeably. The protection system must be RESET before the engine will operate at speeds over 1200 RPM. Under certain conditions the EMM will shut off the engine.

NOTICE

If cooling is not restored, the EMM will identify a progressive overheating condition and shut off the engine. The engine will not restart until the engine is allowed to cool.

After any overheat causing engine shutdown, see your Dealer for:

• Inspection of the water pump for excessive

wear or damage.

• Inspection of the thermostats.

NOTICE

Although the S.A.F.E. mode can help prevent engine damage, it does not guarantee you can run your engine indefinitely without engine damage.

Replace anodes smaller than 2/3 their original size. Additional anodes may be required depending on engine application and

WEEDY WATER

Weeds block water intakes and may cause your outboard to overheat. Weeds on the propeller create vibration and reduce boat speed.

When operating in weedy water, run at slow speeds and in REVERSE frequently to clear weeds from the propeller and water intakes. Check the water pump indicator often.

If REVERSE operation does not clear away weeds, SHUT OFF the engine. Remove weeds from propeller area and water intakes before operating at higher speed.

SHALLOW WATER

Gearcase damage can occur if the gearcase is allowed to drag on the waterway bottom. Use caution when operating in shallow water.

Impact damage is NOT covered by the outboard warranty.

UNDER TOW

Should you require a tow from another boat:

• Shift your engine to NEUTRAL;

• Tilt its gearcase out of the water;

• Off-load all persons into another boat; and

• Keep speed slower than planing speed.

DUAL OUTBOARD OPERATION

When in reverse above slow speed, be sure both outboards are running, even if one is in NEUTRAL.

If it is necessary to return to harbor with one outboard not running, tilt the inoperative outboard high enough to keep its propeller out of the water.

COLD AND FREEZING WEATHER

NOTICE

under 32°F (0°C), Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil, must be used.

ENGINE EMISSIONS INFORMATION

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any marine SI (spark ignition) engine repair establishments or individual.

Manufacturer’s Responsibility

Beginning with 1999 model year outboards, manufacturers of marine engines must determine the exhaust emission levels for each engine horsepower family and certify these outboards with the United States of America Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). An emissions control information label, showing emission levels and engine specifications, must be placed on each outboard at the time of manufacture.

Dealer’s Responsibility

When performing service on all 1999 and more recent Evinrude outboards that carry an emissions control information label, adjustments must be kept within published factory specifications.

Replacement or repair of any emission related component must be executed in a manner that maintains emission levels within the prescribed certification standards.

Dealers are not to modify the outboard in any manner that would alter the horsepower or allow emission levels to exceed their predetermined factory specifications.

Exceptions include manufacturer’s prescribed changes, such as altitude adjustments, for example.

Owner Responsibility

EPA Emission Regulations

All new 1999 and more recent Evinrude outboards manufactured by BRP are certified to the EPA as conforming to the requirements of the regulations for the control of air pollution from new watercraft marine spark ignition engines. This certification is contingent on certain adjustments being set to factory standards. For this reason, the factory procedure for servicing the product must be strictly followed and, whenever practicable, returned to the original intent of the design. The responsibilities listed above are general and in no way a complete listing of the rules and regulations pertaining to the EPA requirements on exhaust emissions for marine products. For more detailed information on this subject, you may contact the following locations:

VIA U.S. POSTAL SERVICE:

VIA EXPRESS or COURIER MAIL:

Office of Mobile Sources Engine Programs and Compliance Division Engine Compliance Programs Group (6403J) 501 3rd St. NW Washington, DC 20001

The owner/operator is required to have engine maintenance performed to maintain emission levels within prescribed certification standards.

The owner/operator is not to, and should not allow anyone to, modify the engine in any manner that would alter the horsepower or allow emissions levels to exceed their predetermined factory specifications.

Tampering with the fuel system to change horsepower or modify emission levels beyond factory settings or specifications will void the product warranty.

Store fuel tanks in a well-ventilated area, away from heat and open flame. Prevent escape of liquid or vapors which could accidentally ignite. Close filler cap vent screws (if equipped) and be sure any disconnected fuel hoses do not drip.

Preparation

Your outboard can be winterized in the water. If winterizing in water, make sure the water intake screens are completely submerged.

Page 43

X STORAGE

1) Stabilize the engine’s fuel supply. Add 2+4 Fuel Conditioner following instructions on

container. Fill fuel tank.

2) If winterizing on a trailer, remove the propeller. Attach a garden hose to flushing port and turn on the water. Refer to Flush- ing on page 38.

3) Outboard must be in NEUTRAL, and shift linkage must be in NEUTRAL position at all times during winterization procedure.

Tiller Control Outboards

1) Advance throttle grip to HALF THROTTLE position. Start the outboard. Outboard runs at slow idle speed.

Tiller Control – Typical

2) After outboard runs for about 15 seconds, move throttle grip to IDLE position. Outboard continues to run at slow idle speed.

Winterization is complete when outboard shuts itself off.

• If the outboard DOES NOT shut itself off, you may not have properly advanced throttle grip.

• If the engine exceeds 3000 RPM, the outboard may have been shifted into gear.

In either event, immediately press STOP button to turn outboard OFF and re-start the procedure.

After Winterization

1) After the outboard shuts itself off, remove emergency stop clip / key switch. Do not start the outboard again after winterization is completed.

2) If winterizing on a trailer, turn off water and detach garden hose. Grease propeller shaft splines with recommended lubricant, and re-install propeller.

NOTICE

leave the outboard in vertical position long enough to completely drain the powerhead. If equipped, disconnect the speedometer pickup at the upper connection and blow all water out of the hose using air pressure of 25 psi or less. Reconnect speedometer pickup after all the water has been removed.

When winterizing is finished,

3) After outboard runs for another 15 seconds, advance throttle grip to HALF THROTTLE position. Outboard will accelerate to fast idle speed and fog itself.

4) Allow outboard to run until it shuts itself OFF automatically (less than one minute).

3) Top off oil tank.

Extra engine oil is used during the winterization procedure. Some excess oil may appear on the skeg below the gearcase area. This is

normal.

Avoid potential oil stains by placing a shop towel or suitable container under the propeller and skeg for the duration of the storage.

Page 44

Maintenance

PRE-SEASON CHECK

Prepare your outboard for a season of reliable service by performing a general check and a few preventive maintenance procedures.

Examine all loosened or removed hardware. Replace damaged or missing parts with Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or equivalent. Check the gearcase for leakage. If leakage is evident, the gearcase seals should be replaced. See your Dealer.

IMPORTANT: Gearcase lubricant is thick and clear. Do not confuse this with engine oil,

which may normally appear on the skeg after performing the long-term (winterization) storage procedure.

Anticorrosion anodes — Check condition. Refer to Anti-Corrosion Anodes on page

30.

Battery — Charge fully.

WARNING

Failure to check for fuel leakage could allow a leak to go undetected, resulting in fire or explosion.

WARNING

Do not use a booster battery and jumper cables to start the outboard. Gasoline fumes can cause explosion and fire, resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.

Review your outboard’s warning system selftest routine. During your preseason start-up, make sure the warning system self-tests properly. If it does not, see your Dealer.

NOTICE

even for a brief start-up—without supplying water to it.

Following Operation on page 20, start the outboard. If the outboard was auto-winterized, it will smoke for a short time after the first start of the season.

Let engine idle and observe running quality. If poor, refer to Troubleshooting on page 43 or see your Dealer.

Let engine idle and confirm water pump operation. Water must flow from the water pump indicator in a steady stream. If it does not, shut off the outboard and investigate. Refer to Emergency Stop Switch on page 20.

Stop the outboard and check the fuel system for leaks.

Do not run your outboard—

INSTALLATION

WARNING

Your outboard must not exceed the maximum horsepower indicated on the boat’s capacity plate. Such overpowering can cause loss of control. Contact your Dealer or the boat’s manufacturer if your boat lacks a capacity plate.

Boats designed for remote-steered outboards might be overpowered by a tiller-steered outboard of the maximum rated horsepower. Ask your Dealer or boat manufacturer if you are unsure about your boat’s suitability.

TRANSOM HEIGHT

Make sure the transom height matches the length of the outboard to be installed.

• A 19 to 21 in. (48.3 to 53.3 cm) transom height uses a 20 in. (50.8 cm) shaft outboard.

• The shaft length of the outboard being installed should come close to matching the transom height of the boat.

Determine transom height by measuring from the top edge of the transom, along the centerline.

Incorrectly matched boat and outboard transom heights can cause boat instability and loss of control. Refer to

Transom Height.

Prevent lateral movement and possible outboard loss by using the mounting hardware supplied or hardware of sufficient size, strength, and quality. Refer to

ing the Outboard

on page 47.

Install-

A mounting surface that is damaged or too thin to support your outboard while underway might fail during operation, causing a loss of control. Be sure the boat’s transom or mounting bracket is structurally sound and between 1 5/8 in. (41 mm) and 2 3/4 in. (70 mm) in thickness.

NOTICE

the engine. Refer to Specifications on page 51 for engine weight.

Use an appropriate hoist to lift

1. Centerline

2. Antiventilation plate

3. Transom Height

Boat performance depends on outboard mounting height.

Generally, the anti-ventilation plate of the gearcase should align with the bottom of the hull. Conventional V-hulls often perform well with the anti-ventilation plate approximately 1 in. (25 mm) above the bottom of the hull.

Test outboard and boat performance at different heights until the best performance is achieved.

IMPORTANT: Be sure that outboard water pressure is not adversely affected by the mounting height of the outboard.

Page 49

X INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE OUTBOARD

WARNING

IMPORTANT: Follow all directions carefully.

Use appropriate service manual for complete installation procedures. The outboard’s warranty will not cover product damage or failure that results from incorrect outboard installation.

WARNING

Even if equipped with clamp screws, your outboard must be bolted to the boat to prevent it from “working off the transom” during operation.

Use the supplied Transom Mounting Kit to securely mount the outboard. The kit includes a transom mounting plate and hardware for fastening outboard to transom.

1. Transom plate

2. Small washers

3. Large washers

The kit also includes clamp pads, which must be used to secure mounting bolts in slots at the bottom of the outboard stern brackets.

Mounting RL Models

Center the outboard on the transom (or mounting bracket) and tighten clamp screws by hand.

Use the outboard stern brackets as a template for location and size of holes to drill in the transom.

Use each stern bracket’s mounting holes as a guide to drill four 11/32 in. (8.7 mm) holes through the transom.

1. Clamp pad

Install the mounting bolts through the stern brackets and transom. Install round backing plates and locknuts onto bolts and tighten securely.

WARNING

When replacing bolts, screws, or other fasteners, use Evinrude/ Johnson parts or parts of equivalent strength and material.

1. Drilled transom holes

ACCESSORIES

WATER PRESSURE

An optional water pressure gauge is recommended to monitor cooling system pressures. Noticing changes in water pressure can help prevent engine overheating. The water pressure gauge must be connected at the correct point to ensure the most accurate pressure readings. Follow the installation instructions included with the water pressure gauge.

WARNING

When servicing the propeller, always shift the outboard to NEUTRAL position, turn the key switch OFF, and twist and remove all spark plug wires so the outboard cannot be started accidentally.

1. Water pressure port (behind fuel filter)

2. Fuel filter

PROPELLER

WARNING

Be alert of people in the water. Always shift the outboard to NEUTRAL and shut off the engine immediately when your boat is in an area where there might be people in the water. Serious injury or death can result from contacting a rotating propeller or moving boat and outboard.

Installation

NOTICE

the entire propeller shaft before installing the propeller. At least annually, remove the propeller and check for debris. Clean the shaft and regrease it before reinstalling a propeller.

Slide thrust washer onto shaft with shoulder facing aft.

Slide propeller onto shaft, engaging the splines and seating it on the thrust bushing.

Slide spacer onto the shaft and engage the propeller shaft splines.

Wedge a block of wood between the propeller blade and the anti-ventilation plate.

Install propeller nut and tighten to a torque of 120-144 in. lbs. (13.6-16.3 N·m).

Install keeper on propeller nut, align keeper slots and cotter pin hole.

Install new cotter pin and bend ends to secure.

Remove block of wood. Make sure engine is in NEUTRAL; give propeller a spin. It must turn freely.

Apply Triple-Guard grease to

To select the correct propeller for your boating application, your boat and outboard MUST be water tested. See your Dealer for assistance.

IMPORTANT: The correct propeller for your boat, under normal load conditions, will allow the engine to run near the midpoint of the RPM operating range at full throttle. Refer to Specifications on page 51.

Page 51

Repair

If your propeller hits a solid object, the impact is partially absorbed by the rubber bushing in the hub to help prevent damage to the outboard. A strong impact can damage the hub and propeller blades. Damage to blades can cause unusual and excessive vibration. Damage to the hub can cause excessive engine RPM with little forward movement.

X ACCESSORIES

NOTICE

Avoid or limit operation using a damaged propeller. Carry a spare propeller.

Keep your propeller in good condition. Use a file to smooth slight damage to blade edges. See your Dealer for repair of serious damage.

Product Information

ADJUSTMENTS

IDLE RPM IN GEAR

The idle RPM in gear setting can be adjusted, if desired, to provide more idle control, steering, and quietness in certain applications.

IMPORTANT: Only your Dealer can adjust the idle RPM in gear setting.

TRIM TAB

WARNING

Improper trim tab adjustment can cause difficult steering.

A propeller will generate steering torque when the propeller shaft is not running parallel to the water’s surface. The trim tab is adjustable to compensate for this steering torque.

IMPORTANT: A single trim tab adjustment will relieve steering effort under only one set of speed, outboard angle and load conditions. No single adjustment can relieve steering effort under all speed, outboard angle and load conditions. If the boat pulls to the left or right when its load is evenly distributed, adjust the trim tab as follows:

With the outboard shut OFF, loosen the trim tab screw. If the boat pulled to the right, move the rear of the trim tab slightly to the right. If the boat pulled to the left, move the rear of the trim tab slightly to the left.

High outboard installations — The trim tab might be above the water when the outboard is trimmed out. Steering effort might increase. Steering effort will be reduced if you trim the outboard in and submerge the trim tab.

FRICTION

1. Throttle friction screw

2. Steering friction screw

Tighten the trim tab screw to a torque of 35-40 ft. lbs. (47-54 N·m). Test the boat and, if needed, repeat the procedure until steering effort is as equal as possible.

Throttle Friction — Adjust until a slight drag is felt when accelerating or decelerating only. DO NOT overtighten.

Steering Friction — The steering friction was set on your outboard at the factory. A slight drag should be felt when turning the outboard with the steering handle. If adjustment is necessary, turn the adjustment screw:

• Clockwise to increase friction; or

• Counterclockwise to decrease friction.

WARNING

DO NOT overtighten for “hands-off” steering. Reduced steering control could result.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

No dealer-scheduled maintenance for the first three years of normal recreational use? Really?

• Yes! BRP knows you want to spend your time out on the water, not servicing your Evinrude E-TEC outboard. There are no valves to adjust, belts to service, chains to replace, or oil to

change. We do recommend pre-launch inspections of your outboard at each use and at regular intervals. Salt water applications require minimal additional inspections and lubrication.

What fuel octane is recommended for my Evinrude E-TEC outboard?

• Evinrude E-TEC outboards require a minimum octane of 87 (U.S.). Use of higher octane fuels is not harmful, but also not necessary.

What kind of oil does my Evinrude E-TEC outboard require?

• Any TC-W3RL oil may be used. The outboard can be programmed by your Dealer to run on Evinrude/Johnson XD100 oil for lower oil consumption and reduced operating cost. Refer to Filling the Oil Tank on page 17; see also Oil Requirements on page 16.

Do I need to mix oil into my fuel?

•No. Evinrude E-TEC outboards do not require any mixing of oil and fuel.

Where should I take my Evinrude E-TEC outboard for service?

• For repairs covered under warranty, you must take your Evinrude E-TEC outboard to an authorized dealer. BRP-approved dealers and distributors have received the necessary training to properly service your outboard. Contact BRP for an authorized Evinrude E-TEC dealer near you.

Can I order replacement parts and accessories for my Evinrude E-TEC outboard?

• Yes. When replacement parts are required, use Evinrude/Johnson Genuine Parts or parts with equivalent characteristics, including type, strength, and material. Using substandard parts could result in injury or product malfunction. Your dealer can order the parts and accessories you desire.

Do I need to complete any paperwork when I move or sell my Evinrude E-TEC outboard?

• Yes. In order to maintain contact with you or the new Evinrude E-TEC owner, BRP requests you complete the form outlining Change of Address / Change of Ownership on page 67. This will ensure you or the new owner is made aware of any product announcements and keep the warranty coverage up-to-date.

What do I need to do before storing my Evinrude E-TEC outboard for the winter?

• Winterization is minimal. Refer to Storage on page 40 for step-by-step instructions to store your Evinrude E-TEC outboard for the off-season.
