Safety information

EMU33622
Outboard motor safety
Observe these precautions at all times.
EMU36500
Propeller
People can be injured or killed if they come in contact with the propeller. The propeller can keep moving even when the motor is in neutral, and sharp edges of the propeller can cut even when stationary.
Shut off the engine when a person is in the water near you.
Keep people out of reach of the propeller, even when the engine is off.
EMU33630
Rotating parts
Hands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, PFD straps, etc. can become entangled with inter­nal rotating parts of the engine, resulting in serious injury or death. Keep the top cowling in place whenever pos­sible. Do not remove or replace the cowling with the engine running. Only operate the engine with the cowling re­moved according to the specific instructions in the manual. Keep hands, feet, hair, jewel­ry, clothing, PFD straps, etc. away from any exposed moving parts.
EMU33640
Hot parts
During and after operation, engine parts are hot enough to cause burns. Avoid touching any parts under the top cowling until the en­gine has cooled.
EMU33650
Electric shock
Do not touch any electrical parts while start­ing or operating the engine. They can cause shock or electrocution.
EMU33660
Power trim and tilt
Body parts can be crushed between the mo-
tor and the clamp bracket when the motor is trimmed or tilted. Keep body parts out of this area at all times. Be sure no one is in this area before operating the power trim and tilt mechanism. The power trim and tilt switches operate even when the main switch is off. Keep peo­ple be away from the switches whenever working around the motor. Never get under the lower unit while it is tilt­ed, even when the tilt support lever is locked. Severe injury could occur if the outboard mo­tor accidentally falls.
EMU33671
Engine shut-off cord (lanyard)
Attach the engine shut-off cord so that the engine stops if the operator falls overboard or leaves the helm. This prevents the boat from running away under power and leaving people stranded, or running over people or objects. Always attach the engine shut-off cord to a secure place on your clothing or your arm or leg while operating. Do not remove it to leave the helm while the boat is moving. Do not at­tach the cord to clothing that could tear loose, or route the cord where it could be­come entangled, preventing it from function­ing. Do not route the cord where it is likely to be accidentally pulled out. If the cord is pulled during operation, the engine will shut off and you will lose most steering control. The boat could slow rapidly, throwing people and ob­jects forward.
EMU33810
Gasoline
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flam­mable and explosive.
cording to the procedure on page 48 to reduce the risk of fire and explosion.
Always, refuel ac-

Safety information
EMU33820
Gasoline exposure and spills
Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline spills, wipe it up immediately with dry rags. Dispose of rags properly. If any gasoline spills onto your skin, immedi­ately wash with soap and water. Change clothing if gasoline spills on it. If you swallow gasoline, inhale a lot of gaso­line vapor, or get gasoline in your eyes, get immediate medical attention. Never siphon fuel by mouth.
EMU33900
Carbon monoxide
This product emits exhaust gases which contain carbon monoxide, a colorless, odor­less gas which may cause brain damage or death when inhaled. Symptoms include nau­sea, dizziness, and drowsiness. Keep cock­pit and cabin areas well ventilated. Avoid blocking exhaust outlets.
EMU33780
Modifications
Do not attempt to modify this outboard mo­tor. Modifications to your outboard motor may reduce safety and reliability, and render the outboard unsafe or illegal to use.
EMU33740
Boating safety
This section includes a few of the many im­portant safety precautions that you should follow when boating.
EMU33710
Alcohol and drugs
Never operate after drinking alcohol or tak­ing drugs. Intoxication is one of the most common factors contributing to boating fatal­ities.
EMU33720
Personal flotation devices
Have an approved personal flotation device (PFD) on board for every occupant. Yamaha
recommends that you must wear a PFD whenever boating. At a minimum, children and non-swimmers should always wear PFDs, and everyone should wear PFDs when there are potentially hazardous boat­ing conditions.
EMU33730
People in the water
Always watch carefully for people in the wa­ter, such as swimmers, skiers, or divers, whenever the engine is running. When someone is in the water near the boat, shift into neutral and shut off the motor. Stay away from swimming areas. Swimmers can be hard to see. The propeller can keep moving even when the motor is in neutral. Shut off the engine when a person is in the water near you.
EMU33750
Passengers
Consult your boat manufacturer’s instruc­tions for details about appropriate passenger locations in your boat and be sure all pas­sengers are positioned properly before ac­celerating and when operating above an idle speed. Standing or sitting in non-designated locations may result in being thrown either overboard or within the boat due to waves, wakes, or sudden changes in speed or direc­tion. Even when people are positioned prop­erly, alert your passengers if you must make any unusual maneuver. Always avoid jump­ing waves or wakes.
EMU33760
Overloading
Do not overload the boat. Consult the boat capacity plate or boat manufacturer for max­imum weight and number of passengers. Be sure that weight is properly distributed ac­cording to the boat manufacturers instruc­tions. Overloading or incorrect weight distribution can compromise the boats han-

Safety information
dling and lead to an accident, capsizing or swamping.
EMU33772
Avoid collisions
Scan constantly for people, objects, and oth­er boats. Be alert for conditions that limit your visibility or block your vision of others.
ZMU06025
Operate defensively at safe speeds and keep a safe distance away from people, ob­jects, and other boats.
Do not follow directly behind other boats or
waterskiers.
Avoid sharp turns or other maneuvers that make it hard for others to avoid you or un­derstand where you are going.
Avoid areas with submerged objects or shallow water.
Ride within your limits and avoid aggres­sive maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of control, ejection, and collision.
Take early action to avoid collisions. Re­member, boats do not have brakes, and stopping the engine or reducing throttle can reduce the ability to steer. If you are not sure that you can stop in time before hitting an obstacle, apply throttle and turn in another direction.
EMU33790
Weather
Stay informed about the weather. Check weather forecasts before boating. Avoid
boating in hazardous weather.
EMU33880
Passenger training
Make sure at least one other passenger is trained to operate the boat in the event of an emergency.
EMU33890
Boating safety publications
Be informed about boating safety. Additional publications and information can be obtained from many boating organizations.
EMU33600
Laws and regulations
Know the marine laws and regulations where you will be boating- and obey them. Several sets of rules prevail according to geographic location, but all are basically the same as the International Rules of the Road.

Propeller selection
Next to selecting an outboard, choosing the right propeller is one of the most important purchasing decisions a boater can make. The type, size, and design of your propeller have a direct impact on acceleration, top speed, fuel economy, and even engine life. Yamaha designs and manufactures propel­lers for every Yamaha outboard motor and every application. Your outboard motor came with a Yamaha propeller chosen to perform well over a range of applications, but there may be uses where a different propeller would be more appropriate. Your Yamaha dealer can help you select the right propeller for your boating needs. Select a propeller that will allow the engine to reach the middle or upper half of the operating range at full throttle with the maximum boat­load. Generally, chose a larger pitch propel­ler for a smaller operating load and a smaller pitch propeller for a heavier load. If you carry loads that vary widely, chose the propeller that lets the engine run in the proper range for your maximum load but remember that you may need to reduce your throttle setting to stay within the recommended engine speed range when carrying lighter loads. For instructions on propeller removal and in­stallation, see page 79.

Engine shut-off cord (lanyard) and clip
The clip must be attached to the engine shut­off switch for the engine to run. The cord should be attached to a secure place on the operators clothing, or arm or leg. Should the operator fall overboard or leave the helm, the cord will pull out the clip, stopping ignition to the engine. This will prevent the boat from running away under power.
tach the engine shut-off cord to a secure place on your clothing, or your arm or leg while operating. Do not attach the cord to clothing that could tear loose. Do not route the cord where it could become en­tangled, preventing it from functioning. Avoid accidentally pulling the cord dur­ing normal operation. Loss of engine power means the loss of most steering control. Also, without engine power, the boat could slow rapidly. This could cause people and objects in the boat to be thrown forward.
