that an equal amount of effort is
required.
Distribute the load evenly in the boat
and run the boat in straight course at
full throttle. Slightly turn the steering
wheel or tiller handle for both right
and left turns to determine if an equal
amount of effort is required. If adjustment is necessary loosen the tightening bolt and turn the trim tab right or
left. Make small adjustments at a
time and retest. Incorrect trim tab
adjustment can cause adverse steering.
The trim tab also functions as an anode.

extremely flammable, and gaso-
line vapor can explode, causing
serious injury or death. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks
in your working area. KEEP
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Over-Rev Limiter
This outboard motor is equipped with
an engine over-rev limiter which limits
the maximum engine rpm. This overrev limiter protects the engine from
mechanical damage.
The over-rev limiter may be activated
by putting the propeller in a light load
condition or propeller ventilation.
When the over-rev limiter is activated
the engine rpm will become unstable
or erratic. Should this occur reduce the
throttle opening and wait for the
engine rpm to stabilize then increase
the throttle opening.

4. INSTALLATION
Installation
It is your responsibility to choose a
boat suitable for the motor.
DO NOT OVERPOWER THE BOAT
Do not install an outboard motor that
exceeds the recommended maximum
horsepower for the boat. Refer to the
boat certification plate for the maxi-
mum recommended horsepower for the
boat. For most boat applications, the
motor should have a horsepower which
provides 80% of the maximum recommended horsepower for the boat. If the
certification plate information is not
available, contact the boat dealer.
The BF25A/30A must be installed on
transoms which have the following
minimum or maximum thickness.
STERN CENTER LINE
Installation position
Install on the stern center line.
Installation height
For proper propeller depth and engine
cooling, the boat and outboard motor
transom height must match.
Three outboard motor transom heights
are available. Match your boats transom height to the outboard motor
transom height shown below.
Outboard Motor
@ MOTOR TRANSOM HEIGHT
@ BOAT TRANSOM HEIGHT
0 O-2inW50mm)
@ ANTICAVITATION PLATE
The anticavitation plate should be
O-2 inches below the bottom of the boat.
With the boat in the water, loaded and
motor off, the anticavitation plate should
be about 4 inches below the surface of
the water.
-1 Running the outboard motor
without suficient cooling water will
damage the water pump and overheat
the engine.
