Safety information

EMU33623
Outboard motor safety
Observe these precautions at all times.
EMU36502
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. Stop 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.
EMU40272
Rotating parts
Hands, feet, hair, jewelry, clothing, personal flotation device (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 top cowl­ing with the engine running. Only operate the engine with the top 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.
EMU33641
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.
EMU33651
Electric shock
Do not touch any electrical parts while start­ing or operating the engine. They can cause shock or electrocution.
EMU33661
Power trim and tilt
Body parts can be crushed between the mo­tor 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.
EMU33672
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.

Safety information
EMU33811
Gasoline
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flamma­ble and explosive. Always, refuel according
to the procedure on page 54 to reduce the risk of fire and explosion.
EMU33821
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.
EMU33901
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.
EMU33781
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.
EMU33741
Boating safety
This section includes a few of the many im­portant safety precautions that you should follow when boating.
EMU33711
Alcohol and drugs
Never operate after drinking alcohol or taking drugs. Intoxication is one of the most com­mon factors contributing to boating fatalities.
EMU40281
Personal flotation devices (PFDs)
Have an approved 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.
EMU33732
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 stop the engine. Stay away from swimming areas. Swimmers can be hard to see. The propeller can keep moving even when the motor is in neutral. Stop the engine when a person is in the water near you.
EMU33752
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.
EMU33762
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 manufacturer’s instruc-
2
Safety information
ZMU06025
tions. Overloading or incorrect weight distribution can compromise the boats han­dling and lead to an accident, capsizing or swamping.
EMU33773
Avoid collisions
Scan constantly for people, objects, and oth­er boats. Be alert for conditions that limit your visibility or block your vision of others.
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 aggres-
sive maneuvers to reduce the risk of loss of control, ejection, and collision.
Take early action to avoid collisions. Re-
member, 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.
EMU33791
Weather
Stay informed about the weather. Check weather forecasts before boating. Avoid boating in hazardous weather.
EMU33881
Passenger training
Make sure at least one other passenger is trained to operate the boat in the event of an emergency.
EMU33891
Boating safety publications
Be informed about boating safety. Additional publications and information can be obtained from many boating organizations.
EMU33601
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 motor, select­ing 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 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, select 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, select 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. Yamaha recommends to use a propeller suit­able for the “Shift Dampener System (SDS)”. For further information, consult your Yamaha dealer. To check the propeller, see page 82.
3. Type of propeller (propeller mark)
EMU36312
Counter rotation models
Standard outboard motors rotate clockwise. Counter rotation models rotate counterclock­wise and are typically used in multiple motor setups. On counter rotation models, be sure to use a propeller intended for counterclockwise rota­tion. These propellers are identified with the letter “L” after the size indication on the pro­peller. WARNING! Never use a standard
propeller with a counter rotation motor, or a counter rotation propeller with a stan­dard motor. Otherwise the boat could go in the direction opposite of that expected (for example, reverse instead of forward), which could lead to an accident.
[EWM01811]
For instructions on propeller removal and ins­tallation, see page 83 and 83.

Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the en­gine.
Avoid getting water and contaminants in
the fuel tank. Contaminated fuel can cause poor performance or engine dam­age. Use only fresh gasoline that has been stored in clean containers.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con­taining ethanol (E10) and that containing methanol. Ethanol can be used if the ethanol content does not exceed 10% and the fuel meets the minimum octane ratings. E85 is a fuel containing 85% ethanol and must not be used in your outboard motor. All ethanol blends containing more than 10% ethanol can cause fuel system damage or cause en­gine starting and running problems. Yamaha

ZMU07735
does not recommend gasohol containing methanol because it can cause fuel system damage or engine performance problems. It is recommended that you install a water­separating marine fuel filter assembly (10 mi­cron minimum) between your boat’s fuel tank and outboard motor when using ethanol. Eth­anol is known to allow moisture to be ab­sorbed into boat fuel tanks and systems. Moisture in the fuel can cause corrosion of metallic fuel system components, starting and running complaints and require addition­al fuel system maintenance.
EMU36331
Anti-fouling paint
A clean hull improves boat performance. The boat bottom should be kept as clean of mari­ne growth as possible. If necessary, the boat bottom can be coated with an anti-fouling paint approved for your area to inhibit marine growth. Do not use anti-fouling paint which includes copper or graphite. These paints can cause more rapid engine corrosion.
EMU36353
Emergency equipment
Keep the following items onboard in case there is trouble with the outboard motor. A tool kit with assorted screwdrivers, pliers,
wrenches (including metric sizes), and electrical tape.
Waterproof flashlight with extra batteries.An extra engine shut-off cord (lanyard) with
clip.
Spare parts, such as an extra set of spark
plugs.

Remote control transmitter
The lock and unlock modes of the Yamaha Security System are selected using the re­mote control transmitter. While the engine is running, input from the remote control trans­mitter is not received.
Store the remote control transmitter carefully so it will not be lost.
ECM02101
The remote control transmitter is not
completely waterproof. Do not sub­merge the transmitter or operate it un­derwater. If the transmitter is submerged, dry it with a soft, dry cloth, and then check that it is operating prop­erly. If the transmitter is not operating properly, contact a Yamaha dealer.
Keep the remote control transmitter
away from high temperatures and do not place it in direct sunlight.
Do not drop the remote control trans-
mitter, subject it to strong shocks, or place any heavy items on it.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the remote
control transmitter. Do not use deter­gent, alcohol, or other chemicals.
Do not attempt to disassemble the re-
mote control transmitter yourself. Oth­erwise, the transmitter may not operate properly. If the transmitter needs a new battery, contact a Yamaha dealer.
If you have lost the remote control trans-
mitter, consult your Yamaha dealer. Keep the least 2 transmitters at all the time. If you have lost both transmitters, consult your Yamaha dealer.
Since the receiver is programmed to rec-
ognize the internal code from this transmit­ter only, the security system setting can only be changed with this transmitter. If the remote control transmitter does not oper­ate properly, contact a Yamaha dealer.
Replace the battery cell after 1 year, and
every two years thereafter as a standard measure.
Refer to local hazardous waste regulations
when disposing of transmitter batteries.
The Yamaha Security System permits to
register up to 5 remote control transmit­ters. Consult your yamaha dealer for de­tails.

Throttle friction adjuster
A friction device provides adjustable resis­tance to movement of the throttle grip or the remote control lever, and can be set accord­ing to operator preference. To increase resistance, turn the adjuster clockwise. To decrease resistance, turn the adjuster counterclockwise. WARNING! Do
not overtighten the friction adjuster. If there is too much resistance, it could be difficult to move the remote control lever or throttle grip, which could result in an accident.

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 operator’s 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. WARNING! At-
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.
