Protective Sleeve/Conduit
Make sure all cables, wiring, and hoses have
been identified and fitted to the appropriate
lengths. Refer to OUTBOARD RIGGING on p. 51.
Next, bundle the components that route to the out-
board with appropriate shielding, such as an
expandable "flexweave" sleeve or a flexible con-
duit.
Flexible conduit installation
Battery Cables
When routing battery cables, be sure to:
•
Route cables through the protective sleeve.
•
Use the most direct path to route the battery
cables to the battery or battery switch.
CABLE AND HOSE INSTALLATION
Fuel Hose
The fuel hose may be routed outside of the pro-
tective sleeve or conduit. Electric primers or man-
ual primers may not require this consideration.
Route fuel hoses with enough slack to allow the
primer bulb arrow to point "up" during use.
Install the primer bulb with the arrow pointing in
the direction of fuel flow to the outboard.
Connect the fuel supply hose from the fuel tank to
the fuel supply line at the outboard.
IMPORTANT:
connection until the boat's fuel system has been

primed.
Oil Supply Hose
Evinrude E-TEC V4–V6 outboards use a single oil
supply hose connected to the outboard and to the
boat-mounted oil tank.
•
Route the hose from the oil tank to the ¼ in. (6.4
mm) fitting of the oil supply line at the lower
motor cover.
•
Install the hose on the fitting using the proper
size Oetiker
