STARTING THE ENGINE

Fuel Line Connection

Set the fuel tank securely so that it
does not move or fall down while
cruising.
Position the fuel tank so the tank
fuel line connector is no more than
1 m (3.3 feet) below the motor
fuel line connector.
Do not place the fuel tank more
than 2 m (6.6 feet) away from the
motor.
Be sure that the fuel line is not
kinked.
Be sure to insert the outboard
motor side connector in the
direction as shown (the clip should
be at the right side).
The sealing material will be
damaged if the outboard end
fuel line connector is inserted
with force in the opposite
direction, resulting in fuel leaks.

2. Connect the fuel line connector to
the outboard motor. Install the fuel
line connector at the motor side
with the clip shifted toward the
center as shown. Be sure the fuel
line connector is securely snapped
in place.
If the fuel line connector at the
motor side is forcibly installed in
the reversed direction, the fuel O-
ring seal of the fuel line connector
can be damaged. A damaged O-
ring seal can cause a fuel leakage.
