Outboard Engine Controls And Checks; Fuel Octane Notice - Regal LS4 Owner's Manual

LX4, LX6 OUTBOARD ENGINE CONTROLS AND CHECKS
In this section we will explore various outboard sys-
tems and controls that are featured on your vessel.
Note that more detailed information can be found
in the outboard engine owner's manual.
This segment of the manual follows a sequence
in operations and checks including the following;
before starting the engine, starting the engine, and
after starting the engine.
Before Starting Engine
Remote Control
Refer to the typical remote outboard remote con-
trol in chapter 5 for operating procedures.
Note that your remote control may appear a bit differ-
ent but the operation should be similar.
Practice shifting the engine in low traffi c areas to
understand its motion and effects on the vessel.
Be sure to use diligence and obey all no wake
zones and other speed restrictions as they appear.

FUEL OCTANE NOTICE

FUEL OCTANE NOTICE
Outboard engines depending on the model may require
a mid-range octane level (89) verses a lower regular
octane level (87). Refer to your outboard manufacturer's
operation manual for correct information regarding the
proper octane level for your outboard model.
Using the wrong octane level may cause permanent
internal engine damage such as piston detonation.
Problems with the incorrect octane fuel are not covered
by the outboard motor manufacturer or Regal.
Any questions relating to fuel requirements contact
your outboard manufacturer's hot line, outboard
owner's manual specifi cations, or contact your closest
Regal or Yamaha dealer.
