Be sure that the maximum engine horsepower rating does not exceed
that recommended for your boat. It is very DANGEROUS to operate a
boat with an overpowered engine.
Do not operate the engine until it has been securely mounted on the
boat in accordance with the instruction below.
(1) Position
Position the outboard at the exact center of the transom board.
Transom height of boa1
(2) Transom Height
Install the outboard so that the anticavitation plate is at a level of 30 - 50
mm (1.18 -1.97in.) below the bottom line of the boat.
(3) Transom Matching
Be sure that the anti-cavitation plate of the outboard is below the water
surface when running with wide open throttle.
In case the above condition cannot be met due to a bottom shape of your
boat, please consult your dealers
