NOTICE : DANGER/WARNING/CAUTION/Note
Before installing, operating or otherwise handling your outboard motor, be sure to thoroughly read and understand this Owner's Manual and carefully follow all of the instructions. Of particular importance is information preceded by the words "DANGER," "WARNING," "CAUTION," and "Note." Always pay special attention to such information to ensure safe operation of the outboard motor at all times.
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
The Emergency Stop Switch will stall the outboard motor when the stop switch tether is pulled off. This stop switch tether can be attached to the operator of the outboard motor to minimize or prevent injuries from the propeller in case the operator falls overboard. We highly recommend use of the Emergency Stop Switch tether.
Failure to observe will result in severe personal injury or death, and possibly property damage.
!

Note
This instruction provides special information to facilitate the use or maintenance of the outboard motor or to clarify important points.
Failure to observe could result in personal injury or property damage.

Failure to observe could result in severe personal injury or death, or property damage.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
!

Accidental activation of the Emergency Stop Switch (such as the tether being pulled out in heavy seas) could cause passengers to lose their balance and even fall overboard, or it could result in loss of power in heavy seas, strong currents, or high winds. Loss of control while mooring is another potential hazard. To minimize accidental activation of the Emergency Stop Switch, the 500 mm (20 inch.) stop switch tether is coiled and can extended to a full 1,300 mm (51 inch.).
SAFE OPERATION OF BOAT
As the operator/driver of the boat, you are responsible for the safety of those aboard and those in other boat around yours, and for following local boating regulations. You should be thoroughly knowledgeable on how to correctly operate the boat, outboard motor, and accessories. To learn about the correct operation and maintenance of the outboard motor, please read through this manual carefully. It is very difficult for a person standing or floating in the water to take evasive action should he or she see a power boat heading in his /her direction, even at a slow speed. Therefore, when your boat is in the immediate vicinity of people in the water, the outboard motor should be shifted to neutral and shut off.
SERVICING, REPLACEMENT PARTS & LUBRICANTS
We recommend that only an authorized service shop perform service or maintenance on this outboard motor. Be sure to use genuine parts, genuine lubricants, or recommended lubricants.
MAINTENANCE
As the owner of this outboard motor, you should be acquainted with correct maintenance procedures. It is the operator's responsibility to perform all safety checks and to ensure that all lubrication and maintenance instructions are complied with for safe operation. Please comply with all instructions concerning lubrication and maintenance. You should take the engine to an authorized dealer or service shop for periodic inspection at the prescribed intervals. Correct periodic maintenance and proper care of this outboard motor will reduce the chance of problems and limit overall operating expenses.
MOUNTING
Outboard motor mounting must be performed by trained service person(s) using lift or hoist with sufficient capacity.

SERIOUS INJURY IS LIKELY IF A PERSON IN THE WATER MAKES CONTACT WITH A MOVING BOAT, GEAR HOUSING, PROPELLER, OR ANY SOLID DEVICE RIGIDLY ATTACHED TO A BOAT OR GEAR HOUSING.

Most boats are rated and certified in terms of their maximum allowable horsepower, as shown on the boat’ s certification plate. Do not equip your boat with an outboard motor that exceeds this limit. If in doubt, contact your dealer. Do not operate the outboard motor until it has been securely mounted on the boat in accordance with the instructions below.
1. Mounting the outboard motor on boat
INSTALLATION
Note
A rope is not included in the standard accessories.
Boat Transom
Center of Boat
Bottom of hull
Anti Ventilation Plate
5-25mm (0.2-1”)
Before beginning the running test,
check that the boat with maximum capacity loading floats on the water in a proper attitude. Check the position of water surface on the driveshaft housing. If the water surface is near the bottom cowling, in high waves, water may enter the engine cylinders.
Incorrect outboard motor mounting
height or existence of underwater object(s), such as hull bottom design, bottom surface conditions or underwater accessories, can cause water spray possibly reaching the engine through an opening of the bottom cowling during cruising. Exposing the engine to such conditions for extended periods can lead to severe engine damage.
!

Position ... Above keel line
Set engine at center of boat.
Transom matching
Be sure that the anti ventilation plate of the outboard motor is 5-25mm (0.2-1 in) below the bottom of hull. If the above condition cannot be met due to the shape of the bottom of your boat, please consult your authorized dealer.

Mounting the outboard motor without
following this manual can lead to unsafe conditions such as poor maneuverability, lack of control or fire.
Loose clamp screws and/or mounting
bolts can lead to the release or displacement of the outboard motor, possibly resulting in lost of control and/or serious personal injury. Be sure that fasteners are tightened to the specified torque (30 Nm (3.0kgf)13ft·lb). Check the fasteners for tightness from time to time.
Be sure to use outboard mounting
fasteners included in the outboard motor package or their equivalents in terms of size, material, quality and strength. Tighten fasteners to the specified torque (30 Nm (3.0kgf)13ft·lb). Test cruise to check if fasteners are tightened securely.
Outboard motor mounting must be
performed by trained service person(s) using lift or hoist with sufficient capacity.
Mounting bolts should be installed with the bolt head at inside surface of the transom. Mounting bolts installed with the threaded end at the inside surface of the transom can cause personal injury.

Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid and thus is hazardous, causing a burn if it comes in contact with your skin, or poisonous if swallowed. KEEP BATTERY AND ELECTROLYTE AWAY FROM REACH OF CHILDREN When handling the battery, be sure to:
Read all warnings shown on the
battery case
Prevent electrolyte from coming in
contact with any part of your body. Contact can cause serious burn or, if it comes in contact with your eye, loss of sight. Use safety glasses and
rubber gloves. In case battery electrolyte comes in contact with:
Skin, flush thoroughly with water.
Eye, flush thoroughly with water,
and then seek immediate medical
treatment. In case battery electrolyte is swallowed:
Seek immediate medical treatment.
Connect the positive lead (+) to the
positive terminal (+) of the battery, and then connect the negative lead (−). When disconnec ting the batter y always remove the ne g at i ve lead ( −) f ir s t. A ft e r connecting the positive terminal (+), securely place a cap on it to prevent short circuits.

1. Gasoline and engine oil
Consult an authorized dealer for details on handling gasoline, if necessary.
Gasoline and its vapors are very flammable and can be explosive.
When carrying a fuel tank containing gasoline:
Close the air vent screw of fuel
tank cap, or gasoline vapor will be
emitted through the air vent screw,
creating a fire hazard.
Do not smoke.
When or before refueling:
Stop the engine, and do not start the
engine during refueling.
Do not smoke.
Be careful not to overfill fuel tank.
Wipe up any spilled gasoline
immediately.
When or before cleaning the gasoline tank:
Dismount fuel tank from
the boat.
Place
the fuel tank away from every source of ignition, such as sparks or open flames.
Do the work outdoors or in
a well
ventilated area.
Wipe up any spilled gasoline
immediately.
After cleaning gasoline tank
:
Wipe up any spilled gasoline
immediately.
If
the fuel tank is disassembled for cleaning, reassemble carefully. Imperfect assembly may cause a fuel leak, possibly leading to fire or explosion.
Dispose of aged or contaminated
gasoline in accordance with local regulations.

Do not fill the fuel tank over capacity. The rise of gasoline temperature may cause gasoline to expand which, if overfilled, may leak through an air vent screw when it is open. Leaking gasoline is a dangerous fire hazard.
Engine Oil
Us e on l y hi g h qua l i t y 4-s t r ok e engine oil to insure performance and prolonged engine life. Use NMMA FC-W certified 4-stroke engine oil below. 10W-30: is recommended for use in all temperature. 25W-40: may be used at temperatures above 4˚C (40˚F).
You can also use oils that carry the API rating of SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, or SM. Select the appropriate viscosity, based on atmospheric temperature, from the chart below.
