GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
ENOM00009-0
SAFE OPERATION OF BOAT
1
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.
ENOW00005-0
WARNING
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.
ENOM0008-A
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
The Emergency Stop Switch will stall the outboard motor when the stop switch lanyard is
pulled off. This stop switch lanyard has to be attached to the operator of the outboard
motor to minimize or prevent injuries from the propeller in case the operator falls overboard.
It is operator’s responsibility to use the Emergency Stop Switch Lanyard.
ENOW00004-A
WARNING
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 lanyard is coiled and can extended to a full 1300 mm (51 inch.).
ENOM00800-A
PERSONAL FLOATATION DEVICE
As the operator/driver and passenger of the boat, you are responsible to wear a PFD (Personal Floatation Device) while on the boat.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION 11
ENOM00010-0
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.
ENOM00011-B
MAINTENANCE
As the owner of this outboard motor, you should be acquainted with correct maintenance
procedures following maintenance section of this manual (See page 43). 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.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard
Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas which can be fatal if
inhaled for any length of time.
Never start or operate the engine indoors or in any space which is not well ventilated.
Propane
Propane and its vapors are very flammable and can be explosive. Use extreme care when
handling propane. You should be thoroughly knowledgeable on how to correctly handle
propane by reading this manual.

1. Mounting the outboard motor on
boat
ENOW00006-0
WARNING
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
5
accordance with the instructions below.
ENOW00009-0
WARNING
z Mounting the outboard motor without
following this manual can lead to unsafe
conditions such as poor maneuverability, lack of control or fire.
z 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 (3.0 kgf) 13 ft-lb). Check the fasteners for tightness from time to time.
z Be sure to use outboard mounting fas-
teners 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 (3.0 kgf) 13 ft-lb). Test cruise to
check if fasteners are tightened
securely.
z Outboard motor mounting must be per-
formed by trained service person(s)
using lift or hoist with sufficient capacity.
Keep the outboard motor in a vertical position when mounting.

Be sure that the anti ventilation plate of the
outboard motor is 5–25 mm (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.

CAUTION
z 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.
z 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.
z Tighten the bolts sufficiency, otherwise
falling down of outboard could be happened.

1. To attach the outboard motor to the
boat, tighten the clamp screws by
turning their handles.
Secure the outboard motor with a rope
to prevent loss overboard.
Install the remote control box in a position
where it is easy to reach and operate the
controls.
Make sure there are no obstacles that can
interfere with the operation of the remote
control cable.

Remote control cable length
ENOW00100-A
CAUTION
Be careful not to loop the remote control
cables to a diameter of 406 mm (16 inches)
or less. Otherwise, it affects the service life
of the cable.
5
Measure the distance from the remote
control box to the outboard motor where
the remote control cable should be routed.
Prepare a cable that is 300-450mm (11.8-
17.7in) longer than the measured distance.
Temporarily pull the cable along the
intended cable route to check its length is
sufficient.
Connect the remote control cable to the
engine, then run the cable to the remote
control box, making sure it is not sharply
bent, too taut and free from obstructions
that could interfere with steering.

3. Battery installation
ENOW00012-0
WARNING
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:
z Read all warnings shown on the battery
case
z Prevent electrolyte from coming in con-
tact 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:
z Skin, flush thoroughly with water.
z Eye, flush thoroughly with water, and
then seek immediate medical treatment.
In case battery electrolyte is swallowed:
z Seek immediate medical treatment.
ENOF00842-0
ENOW00013-B
WARNING
Battery generates explosive hydrogen gas.
Be sure to:
z Charge the battery in a well-ventilated
place.
z Place the battery away from any source
of fire, sparks and open flames such as
burners or welding equipment.
z Do not charge the battery when the
electrolyte level is low. Otherwise, the
battery will be damaged and may cause
malfunction.
ENOW00014-0
CAUTION
z Make sure that the battery leads do not
get stuck between the outboard motor
and boat when turning, etc.
z The starter motor may fail to operate if
the leads are incorrectly connected.
z Be sure to correctly connect the (+) and
(—) leads. If not, the charging system
will be damaged.
