Shifting; Forward (Tiller Handle And Remote Control Models); Reverse; And Power Trim And Tilt Models) - Yamaha F50D Owner's Manual

Operation
not be found.
A continuous flow of water from the pi-
G
lot hole shows that the water pump is
pumping water through the cooling
passages. If water is not flowing out of
the pilot hole at all times while the en-
gine is running, overheating and seri-
ous damage could occur. Stop the
engine and check whether the cooling
water inlet on the lower case or the
cooling water pilot hole is blocked.
Consult your Yamaha dealer if the prob-
lem cannot be located and corrected.
