Section 3 - On the Water Section 3 - On the Water Table of Contents Safe Boating Recommendations.......... 32 While Boat Is Stationary ..........37 Carbon Monoxide Exposure..........33 High‑Speed and High‑Performance Operation..... 37 Be Alert To Carbon Monoxide Poisoning ..... 33 Passenger Safety in Boats...........
Most boats are rated and certified for maximum load (weight) capacities (refer to your boat's capacity plate). Know your boat's operating and loading limitations. Know if your boat will float if it is full of water. When in doubt, contact your authorized Mercury Marine dealer or the boat manufacturer. Ensure that everyone in the boat is properly seated.
Section 3 - On the Water Be alert. • The operator of the boat is responsible by law to maintain a proper lookout by sight and hearing. The operator must have an unobstructed view particularly to the front. No passengers, load, or fishing seats should block the operator's view when the boat is above idle or planing transition speed.
Section 3 - On the Water Poor Ventilation Under certain running or wind conditions, permanently enclosed or canvas enclosed cabins or cockpits with insufficient ventilation may draw in carbon monoxide. Install one or more carbon monoxide detectors in your boat. Although the occurrence is rare, on a very calm day, swimmers and passengers in an open area of a stationary boat that contains or is near a running engine may be exposed to a hazardous level of carbon monoxide.
Section 3 - On the Water Starting the Engine Check all items listed in the Operation Chart. Place the remote control handle in neutral. NOTICE Without sufficient cooling water, the engine, the water pump, and other components will overheat and suffer damage. Provide a sufficient supply of water to the water inlets during operation.
IMPORTANT: If the boat is operated during periods of freezing temperature, precautions must be taken to prevent freeze damage to the power package. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by Mercury MerCruiser Limited Warranty. Drain Plug and Bilge Pump The engine compartment in your boat is a natural place for water to collect.
For additional information, refer to Hi‑Performance Boat Operation booklet (90‑849250R03) from your dealer, distributor, or Mercury Marine. Passenger Safety in Boats WARNING Sitting or standing in an area of the boat not designed for passengers at speeds above idle can cause serious injury or death.
After striking a submerged object, stop the engine as soon as possible and inspect the drive system for any broken or loose parts. If damage is present or suspected, the power package should be taken to an authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer for a thorough inspection and necessary repair.
The boat manufacturer and the selling dealer are responsible for equipping the power package with the correct propeller. Refer to Mercury Marine's web page http://www.mercurymarine.com/everything_you_need_to_know_about_propellers6. Select a propeller that will allow the engine power package to operate at or near the top end of the recommended WOT operating RPM range with a normal load.
End of First Season Checkup At the end of the first season of operation, contact an authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer to discuss and/or perform scheduled maintenance items. If you are in an area where the product is operated continuously, year‑round, you should contact your dealer at the end of the first 100 hours of operation or once yearly, whichever occurs first.
Using Reformulated (Oxygenated) Gasoline (USA Only) Reformulated gasoline is required in certain areas of the USA and are acceptable for use in your Mercury MerCruiser engine. The two types of oxygenates used in these fuels are alcohol (ethanol) and ether (MTBE or ETBE). If ethanol is the oxygenate that is used in the gasoline in your area, refer to Gasoline Containing Alcohol.

It is the operator's responsibility to perform all safety checks, to ensure that all lubrication and maintenance instructions are complied with for safe operation and to return the unit to an authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer for a periodic checkup. Normal maintenance service and replacement parts are the responsibility of the owner/operator and as such, are not considered defects in workmanship or material within the terms of the warranty.
Check plug leads and electrical leads for damage. • Remove and inspect the propeller. If nicked, bent or cracked, contact your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer. • Repair nicks and corrosion damage on power package exterior finish. Contact your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer.
Replace the water‑separating fuel filter element. • Clean the flame arrestor, IAC muffler, and the crankcase ventilation hoses. Inspect the PCV valve, if equipped. To replace the IAC muffler, contact your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer. • Inspect the condition and the tension of the belts.
Fluid Type 4.25 L Engine oil (with filter) Mercury/Quicksilver 25W‑40 Synthetic Blend Engine Oil, NMMA FC‑W (4.5 US qt) Changing Oil and Filter See Maintenance Schedule for the change interval. Engine oil should be changed before placing the boat in storage.
Fluid Type 4.25 L Engine oil (with filter) Mercury/Quicksilver 25W‑40 Synthetic Blend Engine Oil, NMMA FC‑W (4.5 US qt) Start the engine and operate for three minutes, checking for leaks. Stop the engine and allow the oil to drain into the oil pan for approximately five minutes with the boat at rest in the water.
Remove the dipstick, wipe clean and reinsert. Remove the dipstick, observe the fluid level and mark the cold fluid level. Reinstall the dipstick, tighten the T‑handle securely. Do not overtighten. Changing Contact your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer. IAC Muffler Changing Contact your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer.
Section 5 - Maintenance EFI Propulsion Control Module (PCM): The PCM requires a stable voltage source. During multiple engine operation, an onboard electrical device may cause a sudden drain of voltage at the engine's battery. The voltage may go below the PCM's minimum required voltage.
Connect the crankcase ventilation hose to the fitting on the flame arrestor and valve cover. Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve (PCV) Changing NOTE: We recommend the use of Mercury MerCruiser replacement parts to ensure compliance with emission regulations. Remove the PCV valve from the port valve cover. PCV valve...
Removal Allow the engine to cool down. NOTE: Mercury MerCruiser recommends that the engine be shut off for 12 hours prior to filter removal. Close the fuel supply valve, if equipped. Disconnect the Cool Fuel Module harness from the engine wiring harness.
10. Start the engine. Check for gasoline leaks around the fuel filter assembly. If leaks exist, stop the engine immediately. Recheck the filter installation, clean spilled fuel, and properly ventilate the engine compartment. If leaks continue, stop engine immediately and contact your authorized Mercury MerCruiser dealer. Serpentine Drive Belt WARNING Inspecting the belts with the engine running may cause serious injury or death.
Section 5 - Maintenance Use an 8 mm (5/16 in.) socket and tighten the adjusting stud to adjust the belt deflection. Using one of the two methods following, check for correct deflection. Push down with moderate thumb pressure on the longest stretch of belt. Proper deflection is 13 mm (1/2 in.). Attach the belt tension gauge to the belt.

(phase) of the water/alcohol from the gasoline in the fuel tank. The fuel system components on your Mercury Marine engine will withstand up to 10% alcohol content in the gasoline. We do not know what percentage your boat's fuel system will withstand. Contact your boat manufacturer for specific recommendations on the boat's fuel system components (fuel tanks, fuel lines, and fittings).
Running out of fuel can damage catalyst components. Do not allow the fuel tanks to become empty during operation. Check the antifreeze concentration where applicable. Refer to the Specifications section. Before adding Mercury Quickstor Fuel Stabilizer to the fuel in the tank, determine the type of fuel that is in the fuel tanks and proceed with the following: Vessels using fuel without alcohol—fill the vessel fuel tanks with fresh gasoline that does not contain alcohol and add...
IMPORTANT: The engine must not be operating at any point during the draining procedure. IMPORTANT: Mercury MerCruiser requires that propylene glycol antifreeze, mixed to the manufacturer's instructions, be used in the seawater section of the cooling system for freezing temperatures or extended storage. Ensure that the propylene glycol antifreeze contains a rust inhibitor and is recommended for use in marine engines.
