Maintenance

1. Inspect the engine and engine mounts for damage or
wear. Replace, clean or repair as needed.
2. Inspect the condition of the spark plug and wire.
Replace as needed.

Clutch

The centrifugal clutch automatically engages when the
engine rpm is increased. Be sure that the idle speed
adjustment is set low enough so that the propeller does
not rotate at idle. Periodically disassemble the clutch and
clean debris from the clutch shoes and the inner clutch
bell.

Clutch Housing Bearing

For prolonged clutch bearing life, keep the bearing well
lubricated (DYNE0100).
In the event that your boat takes on water or flips and the
bearing gets wet, clear the bearing of water. Failing to
do so can lead to premature bearing failure or complete
bearing seizure.

Water Cooling System

If water does not stream out of the water outlets while
the boat is moving forward, immediately stop the
engine and clean the obstruction from the water cooling
system. The engine and muffler have separate circulation
connections.
1. Disassemble and clean the water cooling system to
remove blockage and prevent overheating.
2. Replace damaged parts.

3. Inspect the tuned muffler for damage and leaks.
