Boat horsepower rating

EWM01561
Overpowering a boat can cause severe in-
stability.
Before installing the outboard motor(s), con-
firm that the total horsepower of your out-
board motor(s) does not exceed the boat's
maximum horsepower rating. See the boat's
capacity plate or contact the manufacturer.
EMU40491

Mounting outboard motor

EWM02501
 Improper mounting of the outboard mo-
tor could result in hazardous conditions
such as poor handling, loss of control,
or fire hazards.
 Because the outboard motor is very
heavy, special equipment and training is
required to mount it safely.
Your dealer or other person experienced in
proper rigging should mount the outboard
motor using correct equipment and complete
rigging instructions. For further information,
see page 44.
EMU34954
Digital electronic control re-
quirements
The digital electronic control is equipped with
a start-in-gear protection device(s). This de-
vice prevents the engine from starting unless
it is in neutral.
