WATER PASSAGE CLEANING
• Do not run the motor when flushing with a garden
hose or the motor may be damaged.
• For safety, remove the emergency stop switch clip
so the engine cannot be started while you are
standing near the propeller.
Disconnect the flush plug cap (1).
Screw the flush plug cap (1) onto a commercially
available garden hose (2).
Turn on the fresh water supply.
Flush the outboard motor for at least 10 minutes.
Check that the water flows from the cooling system
inspection hole (1) and drain hole (2).
After flushing, disconnect the garden hose and
reconnect the flush plug cap.
