MAIN PARTS
( I) OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. PREPARATIONS BEFORE STARTING
THE ENGINE
Gasoline with 86 OCTANE (A.K.I.) or over is recommended for easy starting and long life.
(1) Fuel
1) Check that there is sufficient fuel for the day’s
operation. Carry additional fuel for use in an
emergency and check it before running. Running
out of fuel can cause both inconvenience and
serious injury.
2) The fuel should be prepared using genuine TOHATSU engine oil. (Fig. 11 The normal mixture is
50 parts gasoline to 1 part oil 150:~). For initial
break in of a new engine the mixture should be
20: 1 for the first ten hours operation.
3) If you are using commercial two stroke (2T) oil
use the ratio 2O:l for normal running and 15:l for
the initial 10 hours running.
4) Do not use poor grade, dirty or stale gasoline or
oil. This will cause poor starting, reduced power
and may damage your motor. Use good quality
fuel and lubricants at all times.
(2) Mounting the outboard motor
11 Position:
2) Height:
The center of the stern (Fig. 21
Fit the outboard so that the anti-
cavitation ‘plate is lower than the
bottom of the boat by 3 - 5cm
11.2-2in.l. (Fig. 3)
Anti-cavitation plate
3) After mounting the motor on the boat see that
the clamp screws are hand tight.
Check tightness from time to time when under
power. As a safety precaution fasen a safetv rope
from outboard to the boat through the hole of the
clamp bracket so that the engine is not lost in the
event of an accident.
4) Attaching angle
The outboard is positioned by locking the thrust
rod in the appropriate hole of the bracket so that
the drive shaft housing at maximum speed, is
vertical to the surface of the water. (Fig, 5 & 6)
Note: When set or remove the motor on the
boat by hand. hold the lower motor cover
but do not hold the tilt handle of the
upper motor cover.
. The tilt is proper
The boat is level and
the thrust rod is positioned properly during running.
l The tilt is not proper.
The bow rides high
and it is deflected or
hit during running. In
this case the position
of Thrust rod shall be
lowered.
T3
d,
l The tilt is not proper.
The bow rides low
during running and
it is washed by the
waves. In this case the
position of thrust rod
shall be upper.
