Safety information

Before mounting or operating the outboard

motor, read this entire manual. Reading it
should give you an understanding of the
motor and its operation.
Before operating the boat, read any own-

result in loss of control. The rated power of
the outboard should be equal to or less

boat. If the rated horsepower capacity of

use may not only cause engine damage,
but also adversely affect fuel consumption.
Consult your dealer for correct use.
Never operate after drinking alcohol or tak-
